Vocabulary. It’s definitely a necessity for writing a book. A novel, after all, is written with words.

That being said, it’s not as easy as it… Continue reading #WW Writing Tips: Build Your Vocabulary

#WW The Truth Behind An Author’s Instagram
I have a confession. As an #authorofinstagram, I post daily pictures of my writing life that are more or less fictional stories themselves. Sure, my cats are real and that coffee was definitely mine, but not all of my posts are live (although a fair portion of them are), and the mood I describe might… Continue reading #WW The Truth Behind An Author’s Instagram

#WW The Emotions of Finishing a Novel
Recently, I finished the first draft of a novel. Granted, any novelist already knows that means the novel isn’t truly finished, but alas, finishing that first draft is the first hurdle to novel freedom. There are a lot of emotions that come along with that moment. Even if it is the tenth novel you’ve written,… Continue reading #WW The Emotions of Finishing a Novel
#SATurdate: The End, Writing Playlist, Lemon Bars, & The Winner’s Kiss
One of my all-time favorite trilogies came to an end this week…and so did one of my manuscripts. What I’m Writing: I finished Take Me Yesterday, clocking in at 78,000 words. Of course, I have a few chapters/scenes I want to add during the editing process, so it’s not complete-complete, as no novel is after… Continue reading #SATurdate: The End, Writing Playlist, Lemon Bars, & The Winner’s Kiss

#WriterProblems 11-15
Recently, I spoke with a couple of fellow writers when we began discussing writer problems. I showed them my #WriterProblems series that I did almost a year ago, and then, I realized I never shared 10-15. I also realize many of you may not have seen the cards I made for writers back in the… Continue reading #WriterProblems 11-15
#SATurdate: Lady Midnight, House of Cards, & Coffee Grinds
I somehow just realized it was March. Listen, I know we’re 12 days in, but I’ve been living in LA via Lady Midnight and I’m pretty sure it’s winter in the current book I’m writing. This confuses me. What I’m Writing: As many of you know, I’m writing book two of The Tomo Trilogy, even… Continue reading #SATurdate: Lady Midnight, House of Cards, & Coffee Grinds
