Monday Writing Prompt-Heading to the Beach
It’s the first day of summer so your character heads to the beach. They decide to revisit their childhood and make sandcastles. However, while digging they come across something buried in the sand. What is it? It is something valuable? Something they decide to keep? Perhaps it’s something that sends them down ‘memory lane’. Lots…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Almost Summer
Summer starts next week and I think it’s the perfect time to look at the goals you set for the year and maybe make a few new ones. There’s too much pressure on you when a new year starts so this is my favorite time to evaluate (and maybe even re-evaluate), what I set out to…
Monday Writing Prompts-Wrong Venue
Lots of sports events are going on right now and your character is one of the spectators. There’s only one problem. It looks like he or she is the only one in the stadium. Have they got the wrong date? Maybe the wrong venue? How do they make the most of a bad situation?…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Another Week, Another Release
So far I’m keeping with my schedule of releasing a book each Thursday in June. I’m determined I’m going to do it even though some days my fingers and hands have a different idea as I hit the letters on the keyboard. It’s sort of like my own mini NaNoWriMo challenge. This week’s release was an…
Summer 2016 Reading List
One thing I love about summer is going outside to read a good book. Last year I put 20 books on my reading list but this year I’ve been more realistic. Ten books have made it to my 2016 summer reading list. A few of them were actually on last year’s list so hopefully I’ll…
Monday Writing Prompts-Car Stalker
This writing prompt has somewhat of a mysterious element to it. Your character sets off on trip. They glance in their rearview mirror and realize the car behind them has followed them all the way. What do they think? Are they scared? Intrigued maybe? Do they try and lose the car stalker or do they…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Is it June Already?
I find it hard to believe that in a few weeks summer will arrive. I hope everyone had a good holiday weekend, (if it was in fact a holiday where you’re at). I sat down and put my summer reading list together and as always, today I saw a few more books I’d like…
Friday Ramblings From An Author-Long Weekend
May is winding down and it’s been a busy month. So busy that it seems like it’s flown by but I did get a few things checked off my to do list. I’m teaching three workshops next month. The first one starts on Wednesday and is the My Story’s Been Rejected, Now What? boot camp. The…
Monday Writing Prompts-Closed
This week’s prompt features either an opening or closing line, it’s your pick- Sorry we’re closed. Lots you can do with this one so have fun and happy writing.
