#SATurdate: Pumpkin Spice Lattes, The Marked Girl, One Mississippi & Violins

What I’m Writing: So this week I totally fell in love with Lindsey Sterling, an American violinist who blew me away. (I put her music in my music section, so check her out.) But this reminded me of a fact that will come up in Bad Bloods, so here it goes: Everyone thinks I named… Continue reading #SATurdate: Pumpkin Spice Lattes, The Marked Girl, One Mississippi & Violins

#SATurdate: Sequel Sneak Peeks, The Light Between Oceans, Rook, & Cupcakes.

What I’m Writing: I’m back on the Bad Bloods train with a brand-new outline and a continued plan after getting stuck in writing quicksand 38,000 words in. I actually have an article about WHAT was wrong with it coming out on Wednesday, so look out for that. It has something to do with my female… Continue reading #SATurdate: Sequel Sneak Peeks, The Light Between Oceans, Rook, & Cupcakes.

#SATurdate: Independence Day Resurgence, The Last Star, & PokemonGO

What I’m Writing: Unfortunately, I’m still in a writing slump. Right when I think I’m getting my footing somewhere, I feel like it slips out from under me. That being said, I’ve reached a point in the Bad Bloods Prequel (which is free on Wattpad, hint hint) that I’ve had to start writing more information… Continue reading #SATurdate: Independence Day Resurgence, The Last Star, & PokemonGO

#SATurdate: Peaky Blinders, Embassy Row 3, Dido, & Don’t You Cry

What I’m Writing: Right now, I have three manuscripts complete: Take Me Tomorrow, Take Me Yesterday (though I need to edit it), and the mysterious D. Now, I add the equally mysterious S. I’m still on a bit of a writing hiatus, but S is a manuscript I’d love to chase after the Tomo Trilogy… Continue reading #SATurdate: Peaky Blinders, Embassy Row 3, Dido, & Don’t You Cry

#SATurdate: X-Men Apocalypse, Winter, Money Monster, & Banana Desserts

What I’m Writing: I’ve actually been working on the free Bad Bloods Prequel on Wattpad this week. Even though the origin stories were written a long time ago, the next few stories needed more attention than the other ones. I hope you’ve enjoyed the first three chapters—which included the origin stories of Adam, Michele, and Maggie—and you’ll… Continue reading #SATurdate: X-Men Apocalypse, Winter, Money Monster, & Banana Desserts

#SATurdate: Captain America, Chunky Monkey, Paperbacks, & Minions

What I’m Writing: Right now, I’m doing an initial edit of D before I move on from it. As of today, I’m 63,075 words into it, so only 30,000 to go! (Have I mentioned how exhausted I am?) Most importantly, though, I’d like to give another lovely shout out to Author Jonas Lee for helping… Continue reading #SATurdate: Captain America, Chunky Monkey, Paperbacks, & Minions

#SATurdate: Fortitude, Splintered, The Beat Generation, & Broken Elbows

Sometimes I feel like I get everything done with no issues. Other times I feel like I get nothing done working my butt off. Such is life.
