Here’s What Happens When You Just Stop Writing. #Passion2Profession
“I’m dealing with this…horrible thing that I didn’t ask for. I used to love to write. It brought me incredible joy…I woke up every day, filled with excitement and an urge to rush to my computer so I could continue to tell whatever story I was currently writing. It was never easy, but it was always fun, and somewhere down the line, it stopped being fun…So I’m in free fall, because you’re right. I…

#Passion2Profession How to Bar-Con With Purpose
How to BarCon
Another RWA national conference is in the bag and it’s time for the “lessons learned” portion. There are lots of notes being traded, stories being told, and ideas being exchanged. Some experiences were good, some unfortunately were bad, but all are useful and help newer writers decide whether they might want to brave the world’s biggest confab of romance writers the next time around.
I’ve…

#Profession2Passion: It's Called a Sabbatical
It's Called a Sabbatical. #Profession2Passion
I wrote a couple of weeks ago about where I’m at with Indie publishing. It was hard to do, but freeing at the same time. And before I wrote that and since I wrote that, I’ve been thinking and considering and listening, both to myself, and to others.
And I’ve come to some decisions. The first is that I’m going to change the way I approach my writing. From day one I’ve viewed this as my…

When the Business of Books Steals the Joy of Books (#Profession2Passion)
It started two years ago–a disappointment here, a disenchantment there–and bit by bit, it seeped into everything: the writing groups I quit, the associations I ended, the decisions I avoided making. My natural inclination was to put my head down and write. And I did. I wrote, and wrote, and wrote. I wrote what I think is the best book of my career. I wrote new and different things. I wrote…

BREATH OF DECEIT is Live on Amazon and FREE in KU!
Happy Release day everyone! The first book in my new Romantic Suspense series, BREATH OF DECEIT, is available on all Amazon sites and FREE in KU! This book has been a true work of passion for me. After years of watching shows like Sons of Anarchy, Animal Kingdom, The Sopranos, and Billions, I had to admit it to myself: I love dark, gritty, suspense.
So, I decided to go for it, write the book I’d…

Living my values: January/Spending
Instead of a traditional New Year’s resolution, this year I decided to put my words into actions. As a writer, it’s easy for me to create words—words that blast my views on social media, words that convince, words that criticize, so many words.
However, even writers have to acknowledge that words, while powerful, must eventually lead to action. So I decided this year I’m going to focus on making…

#Passion2Profession: How much is too much?
As much as we’d all like to carry the “New Year New Market” enthusiasm past January 1, the fact is the publishing market was the same on January 2nd as it was on December 31st. And we all know that means it’s anything but inspiring.
Because of that, there is a lot of talk about “how to earn,” and a lot of authors offering courses and coaching and mentoring. While I encourage you to keep…

Farewell to 2017
I like to view life as one big learning experience. And for all its pitfalls, 2017 taught me a lot. Some of this is personal, some of it less so, but in the end it all informs my writing and my career, so here we go:
Our new toys are broken. Amazon and Facebook made indie authors, but 2017 was the year I had to admit they’re broken. The corporate greed that drove both platforms during 2015 and…

Writing App:Ulysses. If you know me at all, you know I’m a Mac girl all the way, so forgive me for the Mac-centric advice (sorrynotsorry). One thing I’ve learned about the way my brain works in the last few years is this: I don’t do…

#Passion2Profession: 9 Books in 12 Months, the final update
In January I started a major push to pad my backlist: writing 10 books in 12 months. I’ve given periodic updates throughout the year, and with my final release for 2017 happening today, I’m writing my final update.
So, first of all, where did I end up? I wrote and released 9 books between January 2017 and November 2017. What happened to the 10th book? I certainly had plenty of time to write it. I…
