#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: The Jungle Book, Thunderclap, and Through the Looking Glass
What I’m Writing: This week I finished my initial edit of D, and now that I’ve cranked that entire manuscript out in a ridiculous amount of time, Shannon is taking a much-needed break. But hey! I have three novels complete and ready to pursue publication. I'm sure I'll recover from writers' burnout soon. What I’m… Continue reading #SATurdate: The Jungle Book, Thunderclap, and Through the Looking Glass
#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: Deadpool, Gangsters, Cake, & the Grisha Trilogy.
Rereads and rewrites and movies and cake. What else could a girl want? What I’m Writing: I’m writing in D, and as promised, here is more information. D is a young adult, portal fantasy. I know. I know. Portal fantasies tend to be frowned upon nowadays, but hey, I’m not one to listen to trends,… Continue reading #SATurdate: Deadpool, Gangsters, Cake, & the Grisha Trilogy.
#SATurdate: Signed Books, Cherry Cookies, Everything Everything, & The Lizzie Borden Chronicles
The book signing in Barnes & Noble went so well! I met so many great readers, and I was able to share that experience with amazing authors. If you would like a signed copy of The Timely Death Trilogy, e-mail me at shannonathompson@aol.com. The Barnes & Noble has a few copies left, and they will… Continue reading #SATurdate: Signed Books, Cherry Cookies, Everything Everything, & The Lizzie Borden Chronicles
#ReaderProblems Fandoms vs. Mobs
All right. All right. I’m not telling anyone they cannot have an opinion. You can. (Of course.) But I wanted to discuss an upsetting trend that bothers me down in my fandom core. Readers ALWAYS hate every adaptation. And it isn’t just hate. It’s very loud, very aggressive, very complete hate. Welcome, fandom mobs. I… Continue reading #ReaderProblems Fandoms vs. Mobs
#Saturdate Book covers, Amy Schumer, Assassins, Joy, and homemade fudge
This was cover reveal week—a week I have been waiting for—and let me tell you, it was everything I dreamed of. Your messages and support energize my author life. From the bottom of my little writer’s heart, thank you. I will do my best to keep everyone updated as everything moves along! Let it snow,… Continue reading #Saturdate Book covers, Amy Schumer, Assassins, Joy, and homemade fudge
#Saturdate The Danish Girl, An Outline, Cat Socks, and Raven Boys
Happy New Year! I know we’re only two days into 2016, but I hope the New Year is already off to a great start. I’m really looking forward to what 2016 brings. This year, so far, I have two book releases planned, a possible signing at B&N, and a signing in St. Louis in the… Continue reading #Saturdate The Danish Girl, An Outline, Cat Socks, and Raven Boys
#SATurdate: Star Wars, Novel Aesthetics, Antlers, and Florence
First things first, I hope everyone had a great holiday! This girl celebrated with Christmas candies and hours of reading. (I seriously cannot believe it’s almost 2016.) What I’m Writing: I actually fixed some scenes in Take Me Yesterday this week, and I attempted to keep moving forward in it, but it has to take… Continue reading #SATurdate: Star Wars, Novel Aesthetics, Antlers, and Florence
