I picked this book up (I'm pretty sure from BookBub) for free sometime recently. I'm not surprised, honestly. Some of these books I look at the cover and I have no memory of the plot summary or why I decided it was a good idea to get it. I really do try not to just … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: ROYAL by Winter Renshaw
Month: August 2016
I don't have any of the original posts or quotes that went with this, but this has been bouncing around my brain and my Facebook for a while now, and I CANNOT LET IT GO UNDEFENDED. I CAN'T. So one of my friends on Facebook said (or shared someone who said, I can't remember) that … Continue reading Until the Very End, Always
It doesn't look like I've written about this yet, so hey! Why not. I've been surfing through my Evernote, looking at all the various things I've made note of over the years. For the most part, many of these were notes for a previous blog idea I had, which never really came to the fruition … Continue reading Attack of the Pronouns
I'm fairly certain I picked this up as a freebie somewhere along the line, though I don't remember where or when. (This happens to me a lot. It's what I get for randomly downloading free books constantly.) Despite the market being super saturated with young adult dystopian stories, I'm still game to read most of … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: THE INSTITUTE by Kayla Howarth
So in my quest to be a more-published author, I routinely wander off and look for places accepting submissions. I'm not fantastic at short stories, but I've gotten a bit better and it's easier to find places accepting those than trying to find somewhere your little niche book will fit in. But here is the … Continue reading Chasing the Elusive “Idea”
So I figure Fridays will become my more personal post day. Maybe that's sharing a bit of writing I really like, maybe it'll be something else. Today I need somewhere to rant, because stupid things are happening to friends of mine and I have very little patience for it. SO HANG IN THERE WITH ME. … Continue reading Personal Post Time: Brain Fights
I can't recall when I picked up this book, but reading the description as a refresher told me why I would have clicked a download link. Chastity O'Neill has grown up in a family of strong men, her father and four brothers all volunteer firefighters. (And really, any wife/mother in that situation is just as … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: ONE OF THE GUYS by Kristan Higgins
(Author's note: I'm writing this just before I leave on my weekend trip, and I'm on very little sleep and only have half of an idea of what I was thinking when I started this post. Sorry if it loses focus!) One of the more commonly asked questions I see floating around the writing community … Continue reading Background Music
So hey! Since I'm spending a lot of time bouncing around this month, I figured rather than giving you all a prompt call, I'd just offer a few tiny bits of fiction so you can all meet my characters again. I did this once, long ago, and I can't remember if this exact piece was … Continue reading FICTION FRIDAY! Character Snippet
I received a copy of this book from The Story Plant in exchange for my honest review. I'm always nervous about thrillers, particularly thrillers in series. It's very easy to forget to bring in potential new readers. And while I was offered a chance to read THERE WILL BE KILLING before I read this on, … Continue reading BOOK REVIEW: MAKING A KILLING by John L. Hart & Olivia Rupprecht
