Musings Over Coffee: Writing to Your Strengths

Years ago, I did the Personality Type test that said I was ENFP, a Campaigner. I posted the assessment results on my blog and then moved on, mainly because while it was cool to be someone who was “a true free spirit,” or “the life of the party,” I had no idea how it applied toContinue reading “Musings Over Coffee: Writing to Your Strengths”

A Valentine’s Day Steamy Shorts and A Giveaway!

I’m so behind on everything that I almost forgot to wish everyone a Happy Valentine’s Day! As a romance author, I’d be remiss to miss this day, right? I even treated myself to one of these cookies when I was buying a cupcake (with a similar cookie on top!) for LilDude’s homeroom teacher. Today isContinue reading “A Valentine’s Day Steamy Shorts and A Giveaway!”

Talking Out Loud: So… What’s Next?

Now that my first story for 2019 is out, I honestly don’t know what’s next. I’m too busy procrastinating doing everything else but start a new book or finish the one I’ve been procrastinating about. That’s not to say I’m not writing. I’m writing. Kinda. There’s The Replacement Fiancee that I just swore on TwitterContinue reading “Talking Out Loud: So… What’s Next?”

Happy Book Birthday to Me!

Yup! Every Breath is live early and that’s the first story done and dusted for 2019. Twelve more to go! Celebrations have so far included home-brewed coffee and breakfast that’s yet to be decided on. Toast or oatmeal… or bagel with cream cheese? Nothing too fancy because I have to get back to work onContinue reading “Happy Book Birthday to Me!”

No Commitments #TeaserTuesday

Tall and tanned from collecting samples by the San Juan River, it was a shock to the system to see him again. He’d cut his arm when the truck his colleague drove rolled off the embankment and broken glass from the side window cut through his bicep. I cleaned it and under the harried doctor’sContinue reading “No Commitments #TeaserTuesday”

Bad Boy or Good Guy Love? #awritersfebruaryromance

I’ve recently joined an Instagram challenge called #awritersfebruaryromance and what I like about it is that it’s geared toward authors. Most of the ones I’ve seen are usually for readers and so when I spotted this one two days late, I jumped right in. Today, the challenge was Bad Boy or Good Guy Love? BasedContinue reading “Bad Boy or Good Guy Love? #awritersfebruaryromance”

On Writing and Outlines #amwriting

I’ve written 31k words into that holiday novella and… I’ve hit a wall. It’s one of my own making, of course, one called the this-crap-could-be-better wall. Technically, the book is “done,” as in, I got to the ending which, unfortunately, falls short of that moment in the cinema when you await (with bated breath) the hero’sContinue reading “On Writing and Outlines #amwriting”
