IWSG March Blog Hop - Must we talk about AI again? (Rant)
Have you “played” with AI to write those nasty synopses, or do you refuse to go that route? How do you feel about AI’s impact on creative writing?
Have you “played” with AI to write those nasty synopses, or do you refuse to go that route? How do you feel about AI’s impact on creative writing?
Must we talk about “AI” again? I suppose we must, because people aren’t getting the point, and keep…

IWSG February Blog Hop - On Author Websites
February 7 question: What turns you off when visiting an author’s website/blog? Lack of information? A drone of negativity? Little mention of author’s books? Constant mention of books?
Today, we’re talking about websites! Let’s dive in.
What turns me off first and foremost about a website isn’t anything to do with the content, but the design/layout itself.
I’m an artist at heart, and seeing no…

IWSG January Blog Hop - On BookBub
January 3 question: Do you follow back your readers on BookBub or do you only follow back other authors?
BookBub is one of the many underutilized resources for me, most of which are because of finances, but we won’t get into that. At some point I would like to put together a list of marketing resources that are completely free, because as someone who struggles with marketing and has no money to…

IWSG December Blog Hop - On reviews
December 6 question: Book reviews are for the readers. When you leave a book reviews do you review for the Reader or the Author? Is it about what you liked and enjoyed about your reading experience, or do you critique the author?
There is no denying that reviews are for readers. That being said, some authors read reviews, some only read good reviews, others don’t read them at all.
I’m going to…

IWSG October Blog Hop - Do You NaNoWriMo?
This month’s blog hop asks: Do you particpate in NaNoWriMo?
I do! The short answer is, yes, and this is my seventh year and (hopefully) seventh consecutive win!
Long answer, I’ve actually known about (and made several very half-hearted attempts) at NaNo since 2010, but it never really clicked for me until I learned how to plan out and finish a story without NaNo for motivation.
My first real…

IWSG October Blog Hop - The Truth About "AI"
This month’s blog hop asks: The topic of AI writing has been heavily debated across the world. According to various sources, generative AI will assist writers, not replace them. What are your thoughts?
I’m going to go off on a tangent here on this for a moment, because the term “AI” or “artificial intelligence” as this tech has come to be known is a lie. So, I’d like to start with that, and the…

IWSG August Blog Hop - Conflicting feelings
This month’s blog hop asks: Have you ever wrote something you felt conflicted about? If so, did you let it stay how it was, take it out, or rewrite it?
In the past, I’ve had a WIP which I tried once to start, and it felt all wrong. I was wrought with anxiety over it, and for that one, ultimately, I started all over again and scrapped the page or so I had written before. It was more than a year…

Doing a little flash catch up! #fantasyindiesjanuary Jan 24: WIP fun fact The second Addison short is a redo of one of my older stories which I original wrote over 10 years ago! Jan 25: plot or characters? I tend to be more about the characters. Jan 26: Does your MC have a nickname? Addison's nickname is Addy. #writerfriendschallenge Jan 24: Compliment day Hey you, you got this! You're awesome. Jan 25: If you were a writing coach, what would you teach first? About filter words. They really do make a world of difference! Jan 26: Share a shelfie I actually just rearranged and I now have two tall shelves, which are pictured! I still have some organizing to do but I'm thrilled it actually looks like a library in my office! . . . #writingcommunity #lgbtqbooks #writersofinstagram #fantasyromance #amwritingromance #writerslife #author #authorsofinstagram #bookboyfriend #eroticromance #romancestagram #writers #queerwriters #lgbtqwriters https://www.instagram.com/p/Cn5sHDVrWSL/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
