So I did this thing. And wrote this new story/book writing software. It's for discovery writers/pantsers and for plotters too. Now through Christmas, I'll be giving copies away to authors/writers of all kinds. #amwriting #writing #authors I'm a discovery writer/pantser I plot/revise after 1st draft.

I put part 1 of a Christmas story on my blog today. Part 2 will be up tomorrow. writingmusings.com #scifi Elektra shuttles passengers from one galaxy to another, and people pay extra to be home for the holidays. But no one trusts a Pyforian to leave a decent tip.

Tomorrow is the last meeting for this year of my writers' club. No work. We do a carry-in and enjoy each other. I love my group!

This is a Monday. And I have a decent amount of time to write. Go, fingers! THINK! And make words!

Okay, I'm a Scrooge, but I'm ready for you to get back to writing again. Someday, I want to read the end of your book.
Lots of cleaning and decorating. Sorting and shelving my books in the basement. Made me want to do more reading. Oh the fun I will have when this is all done. #WritingCommunity #AbrahamLincoln #AmWriting

In my Jazzi and Ansel mysteries, they flip houses, and their kitchens take major thought and work:

We finished our inside decorations yesterday. Looking pretty merry in here:)
The cats are still having fun. I have more Christmas to put up today. I keep thinking I’m about done. But then There’s more. Longing to get back to my regular routine and writing. #WritingCommunity #AbrahamLincoln #AmWriting

Characters are always more powerful in a story when they move and react to show their emotions in the writing and story events, instead of always letting the narrator tell the reader. #amwriting #author #writing - Wrtr

Fanny in chair today. Time to hit the keys! Cooking comes first tomorrow. Lasagna and a lemon meringue pie for Thanksgiving. That's what my sister and cousin asked me to bring:)

I’m working on a Lincoln mystery, my second, though I don’t have the first out yet but soon!
Happiness is knowing that your favorite author is going to write a new book.

AUTHORS: What are you working on? I'm writing the tenth Alex the Fey thriller.

There are multiple publishing routes available to authors.

- Traditional
- Hybrid
- Self

They all have one thing in common:

You’ll likely do 90% of your book’s marketing yourself.

Fortunately, there’s a simple way to do it:

1. Grow your community
2. Nurture your mailing list
