Writing Tips

One of my dearest ambitions in life is to become a published author. I've wanted to write for years and I can feel it in my bones that I have stories to tell.

Currently, I am not writing nearly as much as I'd like but I am working harder and harder to brainstorm and really get to know my characters and their actions. I am posting some links that I found via Lisa Shearin's blog , the fabulous author of the Raine Benares series.

Side note: If you like a little Stephanie Plum plus some Harry Potter then this series is definitely for you. It's a butt kicking elf seeker that mouths off and lives in a magical world and has a (kind of) life or death mission.

She referenced a fellow author, Ilona Andrews, of the same publishing house about some typical writer struggles and I'm posting them so that one day I can come back and read them when I need some assurance. And hey they might even be helpful to someone else :)
