It is a tale as old as time: Authors advising the aspiring writers to read. Yes, read. Why this reading thing? Well, you need to know your audience. That's a biggie. And you might get some great inspiration from what you read (both good and bad). But really, I feel it's to keep the author… Continue reading Writing Wednesday: This Reading Thing
I forgot to do last week's Writing Wednesday and for that, I'm sorry. There really isn't a reason. Just that I forgot. That said, I decided to write about a topic that has been on my mind lately, the pen name. Also known as the pseudonym, the pen name is a name given to the… Continue reading Writing Wednesday: The Pen Name
Today is actually my Bug's sixth birthday. It's a big day for him and for our family in general. He's my parents' first grandbaby and our first child. On top of that, he was a big motivator to my writing. I have always wanted to write. There was never a day where I wasn't writing… Continue reading Writing Wednesday #8: Follow Your Dreams and Keep Fighting
Last Wednesday I told you guys about my Fiction Via Poll event. Well, so far it's going great! I had a little hiccup finding a way to give out the chapters as they went, but I figured it out. Which reminds me, if anyone wants to see what the story looks like so far, check… Continue reading Writing Wednesday #5: What I’m Discovering
Hey Y'all! Do you want to know what I love? I love polls. That's right, polls. Polls are amazing. You learn a lot from people by what they choose. You can change a person's decision by showing them enough evidence. I think, sometimes, I'm even more excited when my opinion is changed by a great… Continue reading Writing Wednesday #4: Fiction Via Poll (FVP)
Last week, I anxiously waited on Facebook. What was I waiting for? The results of those accepted to the paranormal romance anthology I submitted to. I waited... And waited... and then... THAT'S RIGHT! I'm in an anthology!! What's even better is that it is up and ready for Pre-order. Here on Amazon! It officially comes… Continue reading Writing Wednesday #3: OMG GUYS!
Hey guys! Dance party! I might just start every Writing Wednesday with a dance party, because... dancing is fun! It's even more fun with your friends. Just look at those guys! They are having fun. So, let's have fun with them. A dance party also makes sense because I want to talk about background music.… Continue reading Writing Wednesday #2
Hello, hello! Welcome to my first Writing Wednesday!!! Time for a little jig. Okay, this kind of post will be filled with my quirks, my thoughts, and my updates (unlike my reviews, which tend to be kind of informative vs. fun). So, this kind of post is for you to see how fun I can… Continue reading Writing Wednesday #1
So, this new year is going to be a bit exciting. I was waiting to announce this, but I think I'll go ahead since we're close to finishing. I'm in an anthology! Yep! One of my stories is in an anthology. It'll be published sometime early this year. So, keep an eye out on the… Continue reading Happy New Year!
As you might have read, I submitted a finished manuscript to a few presses and an agent recently. I had said that I would post a chapter per rejection. I LIED. I honestly couldn't wait for people to read what I've written. The fact that it is up there is exciting for me. I want… Continue reading Chapters 1-3 Are Up!!!
