What I’m Writing: Honestly, I go through phases where I dread writing. Mainly because I’m stretching myself too thin and/or trying to find my footing in my next project. I think I’m in the middle of both of those issues. I have three completed manuscripts—one of which needs editing—I want to start something new, but… Continue reading #SATurdate: Salt to the Sea, Death Note, The Turncoat’s Gambit, & Tallulah

June’s Ketchup
Another month has passed, and with it, came the summer and my 25th birthday. GEEZ. For those of you just now checking in this month, Ketchup actually means “catch up.” At the end of every month, I write these posts describing what goes on behind the scenes at ShannonAThompson.com. Some of the topics I cover… Continue reading June’s Ketchup
#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
#MondayBlogs Authors, Add Extras to Books
Writing a book is long process often filled with notes, maps, character charts, soundtracks, and Sticky Notes. If a novel is 350 pages long, there’s probably a stack of papers twice that high that led up to the publication of it. Whether it was an editorial letter or a rewrite or a list of background… Continue reading #MondayBlogs Authors, Add Extras to Books
#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
#MondayBlogs Confessions of a Slow Writer
I’m a slow writer. There. I said it. I’m a slow writer. (Just for extra measure.) You see, I used to think I was a fast writer. “I can write a manuscript in two months,” “I wrote that novella in a few days,” “That short story took me an hour.” Okay. So, I’ve never actually… Continue reading #MondayBlogs Confessions of a Slow Writer
