The Quiet Work of Becoming Better True discipline isn’t loud or performative, it’s built in the unseen hours where no applause exists. This image captures the calm focus of someone committed not to impressing others, but to refining herself from within. Mastery is a daily practice: steady breath, consistent effort, small choices repeated until they shape character. Strength becomes meaningful not when it’s displayed, but when it transforms you. This is the kind of discipline that elevates both the mind and the spirit.

Eyes of Melted Moonstone is looking for beta readers! If you’d like to know more, let me know and I’ll send over some details about the book including the beta reading timeframe, a quick blurb about the story, it’s content warnings, and some optional questions to consider while reading. That way you can decide if you’d like to read it or not! The beta copies will go out on the 1st of January, so get in touch with me anytime before then! I finished the rewrite earlier this week and I am, once again, in love with the way the book looks. I’ll be printing the manuscript out and reading along with all of my beta readers starting on the 1st, so hopefully between me and the readers we’ll find some ways to really make the story shine! In the meantime I’ve started a little art project for the book…👀 perhaps a bit of mock cover art??? Who knows?? 😳 #beta #betareaders #betareader #betareadersneeded #betareaderswanted #writingcommunity #writing #writer #writings #write #writers #authorlife #author #authorslife #montanaauthors #eomm https://www.instagram.com/p/CmMsYReP-a-/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

I’m happy to report that Bad Americans (The Human Tragedy Vol. 2) is, three months into 2021, 1/4 done. That means I’m still on track to finish the book by New Year 2022 per my New Years resolution. This, of course, could change: the most important thing is to produce the best book possible, not the timeline (at first I was way ahead, now after laboring over a rather long novella-like internal tale, I’m back on pace). And there will need to be revisions even after finishing a solid draft. But it’s good to know, given how much energy I’ve put into it so far, that it’s progressing so well. Thanks also to all the beta readers who have already come forward to give me feedback, and those in line to do so in the future as well. The book is diverse and ambitious, to say the least, so it’s great to have so many perspectives on board. In fact, it’s essential. I believe George Orwell once called writing a book “A horrible, exhausting struggle, like a long bout with some painful illness” and Joseph Conrad said something similar. I wouldn’t say exactly the same thing, but it’s definitely highly encompassing in regards to mental energy. In the meantime, while you wait for this one, you might want to check out the first volume of The Human Tragedy, Good Americans. I now realize that it is a rawer book than its anthology sequel, and in many ways, perhaps, its antithesis. But it has been said to “speak volumes about the human condition and modern life in America” by Kirkus Reviews, so perhaps it has something going for it 🙂 https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00FV8LVWC/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_tkin_p1_i2 #bookstagram #book #books #bookstagrammer #booksofinstagram #literaryfiction #literature #lit #literasi #authors #authorsofinstagram #author #writer #writersofinstagram #writerscommunity #betareaders #betareader #betareadersneeded #betareaderswanted #shortstory #shortstories #shortstoriesofinstagram #shortstorycollection #publishing #publishinglife #writingcommunity #writing #writinglife #writings #georgeorwell https://www.instagram.com/p/CNF9le9h4NS/?igshid=106088vpisbcw

Question(s)!!!!

I”m re-re-re-re (add a hundred or so re’s here) writing my novel Elder Youth: a guardians of Isedale novel, trying to make it good so I can self publish it and let people start buying it but when doing that, my reader friends brought up a few issues with the changes and I need other people’s opinions!! Some of these may end up being a little long winded, so please just bare with me.

1: What are your thoughts on switching perspective every now and then not for long chapters but for a page and a half long chapters at the very most?

This next question needs an explanation so bare with me...

2: I”m trying to make it obvious to anyone reading this book that the first world seen is completely different from the one the main character is taken to. The version before this one started out with the main character meeting the love interest right before she’s told to marry him by the Council which rules over her town, has to break up with her boyfriend, and then goes on a first date with him (on the first date, the love interest tells her, “Ever since I came back, the women have been acting like idiots, thinking they have the right to do whatever they want.” The society I made wouldn’t allow the women to act like that, so I changed it to make it feel colder. The main character texts her boyfriend when she gets the summons and he breaks up with her over text. She has to push her feelings down as she goes to the meeting to find out who she’s going to marry or if she’s just going to be turned into a breeder. She meets the love interest before being told she has to marry him and then has her friends come over to help her feel better about everything that’s happened in less than a day before she goes on a date with the love interest at all. My question is, should I make the world colder or leave it alone? (I’d like opinions on which one sounds better at the moment). 

3: My friends are trying to tell me to describe the characters more in the second version because it isn’t as detailed as the first one. I’ve always been taught to only give the details that affect the plot in some way, otherwise let the reader fill the rest in on their own. Do you guys think I should add more detail or let the reader fill in the rest?

4: I actually feel really proud of this new version I did, which is why I don’t understand how my friends can hate it so much. Should I stick to my guts as a writer or should I listen to them and change it back to the version I feel is absolutely horrible?

5: If anyone would like to beta read for me and give me feedback, my books a young adult paranormal dystopian with a dash of romance and pinch of mystery. It’s kind of an Arthurian legend meets Avatar the last airbender with some vampires and war added to the mix. If anyone would like to beta read for me that would be awesome (and for the fellow writers who are also readers who’d like to beta read for me, I’d also be willing to beta read for you too!!)
