Davenport House by Marie Silk This book was back in the 1900s.  I was not sure at first if I would like it because sometimes I don't like books far back in different eras.  But I am glad I gave this book a chance.  I loved the characters and the story and the mystery of … Continue reading Cruisin’ through books cause books make life worth living with Aly 4/25/2016 part 1

Day 77 of 90: Getting close to the end!

I received a new 5-star review last night. The kind of review that makes me feel like all the struggles of writing are worth the fight. I love hearing back from people who have read my books, even if they hated it, but a great 5-star review makes it all worthwhile. We authors often focus … Continue reading Day 77 of 90: Getting close to the end!

I had someone ask me for specific examples of things I use to help jumpstart my mind for writing. I gave them the typical answer that I give everyone, which is read more and have a routine. However, last night I was thinking that might not be enough. So, I decided to make my post … Continue reading Day 76 of 90: Jump starting the process #ASMSG #IAN1 #IARTG #SupportIndieAuthors #OneWordAtATime

I'm nearing the end of my first draft, and I'm proud of myself. I could still be blinded by my own bias, but I didn't find half as many mistakes as I usually do. I love talking to other authors about their editing process. I’ve learned a hundred different methods, and I use them all. … Continue reading Day 75 of 90: Don’t Stifle Creativity #AmEditing #ASMSG #IARTG #SupportIndieAuthors #Ian1 #Inspiration

At some point, I really should come up with a good name for this project. I want to offer this free to other writers, in the hopes something I’ve shared will help them along their journey. I’m waiting, though, as I usually don’t come up with the names to my stories until they’re long done. … Continue reading Day 74 of 90: Out of the box #ASMSG #IARTG #IAN1 #SupportIndieAuthors #Inspiration

I saw a question on the Support Indie Authors board that asked if you can recover from a bad review. I’m here to tell you that you can if you don’t let that one-star review stop you. Remember, perseverance is the key. We authors often focus on our reviews. We crave for input from readers, … Continue reading Day 73 of 90: Recovering from bad reviews #ASMSG #IARTG #IAN1 #SupportIndieAuthors

It's amazing to me how much a story can change our thinking. A well written story can completely change the way we look at the world. I really believe that reading throughout my life has helped to shape me into the empathetic person I am today. I've seen outside perspectives from thousands of points of … Continue reading Day 72 of 90: Never Stop Reading #ASMSG #IARTG #IAN1 #SupportIndieAuthors
