Here is my September post for the Insecure Writer’s Support Group. In a bit of a slump at the moment but I know that will turn around in due time…. I’ve really been neglecting my blog lately due to getting really busy the past few months. My writing has suffered as a result. A lot […]
Happy IWSG Day! And, thanks to this month’s co-hosts: Joylene Nowell Butler, Jacqui Murray, Sandra Cox, and Lee Lowery! February 2 question – Is there someone who supported or influenced you that perhaps isn’t around anymore? Anyone you miss? Someone recently asked me a similar question, and instantly I thought, yeah Thomas Aquinas. Is there anyone else? I met […]
It’s the first Wednesday of 2022 and that means the first IWSG Day of 2022. Wait a minute. When did 2022 happen??? The awesome co-hosts for the January 5 posting of the IWSG are Erika Beebe, Olga Godim, Sandra Cox, Sarah Foster, and Chemist Ken! January 5 (optional) question – What’s the one thing about your writing career you regret the […]
December 1 question – In your writing, what stresses you the most? What delights you? When I first read this question, I was working on the ending of my NaNo novel (I just typed THE END about 30 minutes ago and am coming up for air.) One of my favorite authors Saint Paul the Apostle […]
It’s the first Wednesday of the month and that means IWSG Day. November 3 question – What’s harder to do, coming up with your book title or writing the blurb? The blurb. Definitely. I love writing catchy titles and reading catchy titles. I’m a particular fan of cozy mystery titles, occasionally picking up books I […]
Optional, August 4 IWSG question – What is your favorite writing craft book? Think of a book that every time you read it you learn something or you are inspired to write or try the new technique. And why? True confession: I don’t read writing craft books more than once. There have only been a very […]
June 2 question – For how long do you shelve your first draft, before reading it and re-drafting? Is this dependent on your writing experience and the number of stories/books under your belt? Ugh, I am feeling called out by the June 2nd question. In April, I started working on a project I’ve been working […]
May 5 question – Has any of your readers ever responded to your writing in a way that you didn’t expect? If so, did it surprise you? It’s now May 5th which means Cinco De Mayo and IWSG Day at the same time! Yay. As someone who writes both fiction and non-fiction, including spiritual and […]
I love May for so many reasons. So many great things happen in May. Flowers. Growing things. Okay the bamboo has already started growing in my yard but there are so many good growing things. Also. Not just bamboo. This May, I’m going to miss A-Z Challenge so much but got so inspired that I’m […]
🎲Flash Fiction🎲 Due to life complications, I haven’t done the A-Z Challenge in a couple years. I’m trying to get back in the practice of writing (and editing) fiction. As a hardcore writing practice, I’m going to (try to) post a piece of flash fiction a day. I’m going to (try to) pre-write most of […]
