Celebrate Outside!
Yes, your new favorite indie author is going OUTSIDE this year! I was selected to be a participating author for The Write Women Network Presents: Women in Fiction Book Fair! See, the made graphics and everything, lol Right now I’m working out logistics and supplies, but please believe I am EXCITED to be featured with so many other wonderful writers. Can’t wait to see you all there! -K. McCoy
My Characters Run This!
I mean, I’ve tried taking the wheel a few times, but the characters of my stories weren’t having that. Which probably explains why my outline attempts all end up with dialogue in between them, hehe I’ve just learned to go with it and see where the story ends. For some, it’s a one shot. Others go until the main conflict is resolve – these are mostly my anthology pieces. And then some stories,…

Say My Name!
Of course I’ve used someone’s name in a story that I know IRL. Just not in the way you’re probably thinking. I’m not giving no scrub the satisfaction of seeing their name in one of MY stories. As for people I like, now I’ll happily name drop them in a story. Most recently, I used not one, but three names in The New E.R.A. And no, I ain’t saying which names they are. Though that shouldn’t…
Write What's in Your Heart
Now this is low-key some of the best writer’s advice I’ve received to date. And as a multi-genre author, I love writing the stories that keep me up at night. Characters visit me like they’re waiting in a therapy office, and some are louder than others – sounds like a bit much but it works for me. What’s some of the best writer’s advice you’ve received lately? I’m trying to see something,…
Write Every Day? Nah.
This (to ME) is some of the worst advice I’ve ever gotten as a writer. Cause writing everyday doesn’t work for me. In theory, it sounds nice, right? Schedule time to get them words and before long you have a draft that you don’t entirely dislike. But that’s not what happens – at all. I’ll start off strong, getting in 45 minutes to an hour of sprinting each day. Then my work schedule will…
Main Character Mondays
Oh, sweet Tesla! This MCM is all about Tesla Jones, from my Substack exclusive – Weathering Love. She took over the family’s daycare business five years ago, and after a sudden break up decides to book a month away at a cozy air bnb. Tesla (also known as TJ) is hard working and direct in public, but in private… she’s afraid of everything and everyone – expect Jesus Hernandez, the homeowner of…
bamp's Wellness Retreats
I know this isn’t “totally” out there, but I do know how much it’s needed. Authors need a space to disconnect. Especially us introverted authors! Which is why I am now working on making this happen with be a muse productions – a writer’s wellness retreat. I remember stitching a response to a solo writing getaway over on the clock app about a year ago, and ever since then, putting together a…
Starting Over...Again.
The way life sprinted up and wrecked my MAGIX plans for the week y’all… I started re-reading book one, with plans to get caught up and create a series bible, but then I got two beta read assignments and several companies got back to me about possible jobs. Before I knew it, the weekend was here and I hadn’t made it past the third chapter. So, here’s the answer to today’s post: A whole lot of…
