Am I an Introverted Writer or Extroverted Writer?

As a writer, I thought that I’m set. I don’t have to interact with people in person. I can just write my manuscript. I interact with people online and have that safety net of my anonymity. I tend to be quiet when I’m with groups of people and just listen in on the conversation. Online,either […]

#NaNoWriMo Equals 50,000 Words in One Month?

Trying to find a way to complete my novel, I looked at all sorts of tips on the internet and in e-books. I came across a few tips that are helping me, and hopefully, I will get 50,000 words in one month. The one thing I discovered that will give me the motivation to get […]


Can I Unsubscribe to Phone Calls and Doorbells?

With a quick preview, the importance […]

Putting My Imagination to the Test

There are many romance novel related newsletters that pop up in my email—with permission, of course. It’s always good to have many resources available, from webpage design to editing to book marketing to stock images.

What Do I Do With My Time?

I never thought that I would be a stay-at-home mom. However, I had no choice. While I was on maternity leave, the company that I was working for went bankrupt. I decided to look on the bright side. I’m not pressured to go to work as soon as my maternity leave ends. I get to […]

I am taking an online course with RWA University on the RWA website. It’s taught by the wonderful Catherine Bybee. I love her books and I am delighted to see that she was teaching the course. I can’t wait to learn as much as I can to help boost my online presence. I’ve already started […]


Let’s Get it Started!

I’m back to restart writing my book. I have been busy with my 1 year old, but now that I’ve gotten him trained to sleep through the night, I’ve been busy tweaking my outlines for the books in the series. I’ve signed up with Lynda.com and watched some helpful video tutorials by Lisa Cron on Writing […]


Facing the unknown…

Have to take a little hiatus. Unfortunately, it’s a hiatus from not much. I’m about to venture into a new job. It took a couple of months to develop, but I finally got a job offer and had to hand in my letter of resignation to my current employer, which was not fun at all. […]
