If you’ve ever attended a movie premiere or book signing, you’ve probably heard someone squeal, “I totally ship them!” I admit, the first time I heard this was at Cassandra Clare’s book signing in Kansas City over a year ago…and I was super confused. “Ship?” I thought. “Like a boat?” So here I am, picturing… Continue reading Shaming the Ship

#SATurdate: Penned Con, Descendants of the Sun, Snow Like Ashes, & Paperbacks
What I’m Writing: I’m 52,291 words into Bad Bloods: July Thunder! I was sort of—maybe—kind of hoping to keep this book under 120,000 words, but it looks like it will be just as long as the first two installments at this point. It’s kind of funny not knowing if it will be one book or… Continue reading #SATurdate: Penned Con, Descendants of the Sun, Snow Like Ashes, & Paperbacks
#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: Blue Lily, Lily Blue, Jane Got a Gun, Sausage Party, & Galaktaboreko
What I’m Writing: I worked with some awesome writers this week on various projects! I’m keeping my fingers crossed about the future, because I love, love, love where everything is going. All that being said, I work with a lot of writers from all kinds of backgrounds every day. So many of us are not… Continue reading #SATurdate: Blue Lily, Lily Blue, Jane Got a Gun, Sausage Party, & Galaktaboreko
#SATurdate: Suicide Squad, Little Alchemy, Marshmallow Popcorn, & Cinderella and the Four Knights
What I’m Writing: I received some funny texts from a reader! I won’t say which project she was referring to, but it had me laughing pretty hard! What can I say? Chic Nerd Reads got it right in her book review of November Snow when she said “THE AUTHOR GAME OF THRONED ME AND I WAS… Continue reading #SATurdate: Suicide Squad, Little Alchemy, Marshmallow Popcorn, & Cinderella and the Four Knights
#SATurdate: The Secret Life of Pets, #1 YA Sci-Fi, Noble My Love, Criminal, & Aerie
What I’m Writing: While I’m dutifully writing in Bad Bloods: July Thunder/Lightning, I also had to take a step back and work on some other projects this week, mainly Dreammare, which was awesome. That being said, I’m 38,740 words into July Thunder/Lightning, and hit a bit of a snag (but in a good way). I… Continue reading #SATurdate: The Secret Life of Pets, #1 YA Sci-Fi, Noble My Love, Criminal, & Aerie
#SATurdate: Star Trek, Tallulah, Free Book, & Rice Maker Cake
Since last Saturday was my monthly Ketchup post, this one covers two weeks of info. What I’m Writing: I’m dutifully writing in Bad Bloods: July Thunder/Lightning right now, and so far, I love working with these characters again, especially the brand-new crew that’s being introduced. That being said, I’m 31,269 words in, and currently writing… Continue reading #SATurdate: Star Trek, Tallulah, Free Book, & Rice Maker Cake
#SATurdate: Book Release, Stranger Things, A Thousand Pieces of You, & Swiss Army Man
What I’m Writing: First and foremost, Dreammare—my YA fantasy—moved on in Adventure’s in YA Publishing’s Red Light / Green Light writing competition! That means I’m in the TOP FIVE! I am thrilled to be here, and I’ve loved reading everyone’s work so far. Next week, the winner is announced, and honestly, these manuscripts sound bomb.… Continue reading #SATurdate: Book Release, Stranger Things, A Thousand Pieces of You, & Swiss Army Man
#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: The Lobster, My 25th Birthday, Spotlight, and Outrun The Moon
What I’m Writing: I’m officially writing in the mysterious book I call “S.” It’s unrelated to The Tomo Trilogy and Dreammare, believe it or not, but I love it all the same. Right now, I only have the first two chapters written, mainly because I’m still world-building, and I imagine this novel is going to… Continue reading #SATurdate: The Lobster, My 25th Birthday, Spotlight, and Outrun The Moon
