Day 29. In my opinion each type book has its place. I prefer reading hardback, but not all books are available in that. So you'll ofren see me with a paperback. . eBooks have a place too. I always keep one on my phone in case I have to wait somewhere. . . . . . . . . #marktober #writingchallenge #writingprompts #october #octoberfun #writingcommunity #writerscommunity #writersconnection #writingcommunityofinstagram (at Grand Falls, New Brunswick) https://www.instagram.com/p/CG7NO9SA-j2/?igshid=9i06vej5lfdq

Day 28. My biggest struggle as a writer is the same one most writers have. . I often despair over my writing. . Don't get me wrong, I know I write well. But sometimes all I see is how crappy it is. . I often despair over my books ever selling well enough. Even though my book signings usually go super well and prove people love my stories. . I think this dip into despondency is part of the nature of being a writer. An artist of any type. . Hemmingway. Degas. Poe. Forester. Plath. Woolf. Dali. . Writers and artists are passionate. . Writers and artists by necessity wear their hearts on their sleeves. . Feeling things deeply is what makes us writers and artists. Otherwise our works would be stale and boring. Trite. . And we are so much more than that. . . . . . . #marktober #writingchallenge #writingprompts #october #octoberfun #writingcommunity #writerscommunity #writersconnection #writingcommunityofinstagram #artistsoninstagram (at Grand Falls, New Brunswick) https://www.instagram.com/p/CG4mqHjgcmp/?igshid=bcsx071lodf6

Day 26. Throughout the story, Sylvia learns that she's not alone. That people truly care for her. . . . . . . #marktober #writingchallenge #writingprompts #october #octoberfun #writingcommunity #writerscommunity #writersconnection #writingcommunityofinstagram (at Grand Falls, New Brunswick) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGzgGfdA_oI/?igshid=4oou0of0oyj

Coffee all the way. Sylvia is the same way. Even now, as I type this, I can hear the coffee maker starting up. . What about you? Coffe or tea? . . . . . #marktober #writingchallenge #writingprompts #october #octoberfun #writingcommunity #writerscommunity #writersconnection #writingcommunityofinstagram #writingprompts (at Grand Falls, New Brunswick) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGw3IkmAylR/?igshid=1xb1twhmh4e9g

Day 24. Sylvia is vengeful, cocky, a smart mouth, bold, and headstrong. . But she's really good at a few things: cooking, bartending, managing money, and marksmanship. She could teach any of those. . At this point in her literary journey, she's just learning to be a detective. Her friends are better. . She would argue that the best thing she could teach would be about friends. Find what's exceptional in each. Value them. . . . . . #marktober #writingchallenge #writingprompts #october #octoberfun #writingcommunity #writerscommunity #writersconnection #writingcommunityofinstagram (at Grand Falls, New Brunswick) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGuY5VUgf7M/?igshid=1mo00y1ri0ms3

Day 23. So, I couldn'tdecide which new word to give. Now you have two. . I challenge you to use them in your writing and in your daily life. . . . . . #marktober #writingchallenge #writingprompts #october #octoberfun #writingcommunity #writerscommunity #writersconnection #writingcommunityofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CGruNDUgATQ/?igshid=1rjk7sek624pm

Day 22. I think the books that are most similar to On The Sly are those of the Rizzoli and Isles series by Tess Gerritsen. . . . . . . #marktober #writingchallenge #writingprompts #october #octoberfun #writingcommunity #writerscommunity #writersconnection #writingcommunityofinstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CGpKyUVA2i_/?igshid=j04h3ydxpud2

Day 21. Sylvia actually does have a superpower, though she doesn't know it. It's her friends. She surrounds herself with a collection of badass people: an ex-biker, an ex-sniper, more than a few cops, an unflinching photographer, and an FBI agent. Not to mention her two dogs which can face down anyone. . . . . . #marktober #writingchallenge #writingprompts #october #writinglife #writingcommunity #writersofinstagram #writersofig #authorsofinstagram #authorsofig #writingsofinstagram #writersoninstagram #writersconnection #writerscommunityofinstagram (at Grand Falls, New Brunswick) https://www.instagram.com/p/CGmi4p1gPqm/?igshid=cefl3gvzbze0
