RITA ® Award-Winning Author of Fantasy Romance
//I’m finishing A ROSE IN THE MIRROR today!! On story structure, beats, and how this strange book has been spot-on. Also, the long-game, how a writing career can go wrong and instead shooting for a sustainable life as an author.
//A cover reveal today of STRANGE FAMILIAR! Also a discussion of Avenger’s Endgame and my epiphany on the strategic element that elevates a fight/battle scene from mutual bashing to epic storytelling.
//My hot brilliant mess that I’m revising from the beginning today, with some reflections on how a focused crit can solve everything. Also, “women telling men what to do” and how I’m feeling moving forward politically.
//My mojo is back and my mother is doing well! Other than reports on that – and progress on A ROSE IN THE MIRROR – I’m talking about first names and surnames, feminism, women supporting women (or not), and Kamala Harris.
//My wonderful weekend at Bubonicon and exciting news about next year’s con. Also, thoughts on more experienced authors giving advice to newbies, how to be honest without stomping on their dreams, and a story of my own newbie dream-crushing.
