Writing update

#writingcommunity books.by/taylor-made-press PayPal @althistorian Venmo @Cheryl-Taylor-264

3/11 Edited to

Engaging with a writing community is a fantastic way to stay motivated and improve your craft. I've found that participating in forums tagged with #writingcommunity offers valuable feedback and a sense of camaraderie that can keep the creative process enjoyable and productive. Additionally, exploring independent presses like Taylor Made Press can introduce authors and readers to unique and diverse voices not always found in mainstream publishing. Supporting such presses through easy payment methods like PayPal and Venmo enhances the accessibility of these niche publications. For writers, regularly updating your progress and sharing your journey not only promotes your work but can also inspire others. Consider using social platforms and hashtags to connect with peers, making it easier to discover new books and share insights. This collaborative approach can lead to unexpected opportunities and growth in your writing endeavors.

A quick update on my writing journey to become an author. I've moved my second draft over to Reedsy to help with my organization. Having the novel laid out visually is a tremendous help too. Overall, I like the platform so far! #writingmyfirstbook #writingabook #writingmyownboo

Writing Update 🫶 My Book Project ✨

I’m deep in the latest chapter of my book project, and the characters are starting to make their own choices. I’m playing with dual timelines, echoes in the curtains, and the eerie beauty of forgotten places. There’s something unspoken in every scene now. 💀 Currently working on: Chapter 16

Time to really nail down all the scenes I want to write in the last 3/4 of Owen and Lucy’s book. The first 13 chapters are solid, but the rest is all fuzzy in my head and so I really need to focus in on exactly where I’m headed. The “candy bar” scenes refers to something Rachel Aaron talks

We are getting closer to the end, and it becomes harder and harder. There are so many things I didn’t expect to write. Although I know exactly what the last two chapters will be, I still have a gap regarding what happens from this point until the Prologue. I’m curious to find out, as often I just w

Update on writing my book

It’s been six months since I started writing this book and not once did I believe I was going to finish it any time soon. Between a full-time job, writers block and a two month break, I found motivation through my peers to keep going. I sat down every night writing a little bit or at least trying.

Too tired to function, but the desire and drive still pushes strong. As writers, we have to listen to our natural bodies the same way we listen to these pushy characters living rent-free in our heads. Just like some characters take over the plot, sometimes our bodies have to take the pilot seat

So close to being fully drafted. As usual, my characters have gone off script, moved things around, changed plans, and turned what should’ve been a hot and heavy love story into a slow burn. We’ll see what happens in edits once she’s finished #comingsoon #clarissaandthewallflower #characters
