I want to bring this up because it is my fervent hope that you’ll find your path to productivity, and joy, in your writing. A focus on the wrong aspects of work/life/ or whatever can keep you from that productivity. I’ve seen this come up with writers in multiple ways, and I’ll mention a few […]
Own Your Writing Career: Make YOUR Art (Your Way)
There is no correct way of writing fiction. (Duh!) If there was, creative writing classes would be a whole lot more concrete. There is no right way, and every way will take practice to get great at it. But here’s the cool thing, the one thing that will always keep me coming back to writing […]
New Website!
…which you know, because you’re here! 🙂 Welcome to my new home on the web. I’m pretty proud of it — I didn’t think I could build such a gorgeous site, and that just goes to show that you shouldn’t judge your abilities without giving something a shot. If you’re driven to learn something, there […]
Own Your Writing Career: Avoid Comparisons — They Are Meaningless
It’s funny, I don’t even want to go into this topic, because I’m so over it. Which is great. I was stuck here for a time as an early days indie. But no more! It has been years since I stewed over the progress or success of another writer. I feel much better for the […]
Water Rites: Chapter 3
Amazon U.S. / Amazon U.K. / Kobo / Barnes and Noble / iBooks Chapter 3 Lorelei thrashed awake in the deep of night, her sheets tangled around her sweaty limbs, despite the January chill. The dream stayed with her. The lulling rock of the sea, a seal bobbing its head at her before it dove, a sparkling fish flipping out […]
Water Rites: Chapter 2
Amazon U.S. / Amazon U.K. / Kobo / Barnes and Noble / iBooks Chapter 2 At ten to eight, Lorelei answered the door, flustered. It was the pizza guy. “Hello, Lorelei,” Dean said. He was a couple of years older than her, and Lorelei suddenly felt self-conscious. She’d seen him a bunch of times at the pizza place, since Haeley’s […]
Water Rites: Prologue & Chapter 1
Amazon U.S. / Amazon U.K. / Kobo / Barnes and Noble / iBooks Prologue The waves sparkled as Lorelei’s head broke the surface of the bay, the droplets in her eyelashes twinkling in the soon-to-set sunlight. She spotted a fish leaping high, but it disappeared again, quick as a flash. She looked for Mama, and at first she didn’t see […]
Chaos Calling: Chapter 3
Amazon US / Amazon UK / Nook / iBooks / Kobo Chapter 3 Wren and I arrived in the Realm early, as the Lady had requested. Yetta stood in the main, gold-encrusted hallway, with a sullen expression. She started walking before we reached her, leading the way to the Lady. It had been many months […]
Chaos Calling: Chapter 2
Amazon US / Amazon UK / Nook / iBooks / Kobo Chapter 2 My black leggings and navy blue skirt, paired with my black thigh-length trench, relegated my form to another shadow as I passed through the Lady’s Realm. It was dangerous, using her portals this way. I counted on the fact I was unlikely […]
Chaos Calling: Chapter 1
Amazon US / Amazon UK / Nook / iBooks / Kobo Chapter 1 As soon as my feet touched the cliff top at Cape Foulweather, I whirled to face Wren, grabbing her arm to still her forward motion. “You acted like a child back there. It’s always the same with you. I’m sick of it!” […]
