Today, our guest writer is talking about just that. Using music to inspire her, here is Audrey Leaman. Disclaimer: The… Continue reading #MondayBlogs Music as Writing Inspiration

#WW How To Be The Perfect Writer
The other day, I went to pick up my father at the airport. Knowing it might be a long wait, I decided to listen to NPR, a favorite station of mine. The theme of the day was creativity, and considering how suiting it was, I knew I would love it no matter what, but much… Continue reading #WW How To Be The Perfect Writer

#MondayBlogs Cartoons Make You a Better Writer

#SATurday: Writing Update: Take Me Yesterday
I’m writing this blog post before I announce I’m working on Take Me Yesterday, book 2 of The Tomo Trilogy, but I’ve probably shown you a teaser by now. (This time warp I live in—two weeks before my life is posted—is still rather strange, but it is especially ironic in this case.) For those of… Continue reading #SATurday: Writing Update: Take Me Yesterday

#SATurday The Sting of #BookRelease Day
Release days are like bees. (How’s that simile?) If you’re like me, you both hate and love bees…and I’m unusually (and pathetically) terrified of them…even though I’ve only been stung once…and even then, I hated them long before one stung me at a bus stop while I was innocently sitting, doing nothing to deserve the… Continue reading #SATurday The Sting of #BookRelease Day
