THIS BOOK! (insert dramatic sighs, foot-stomps and evil/happy “reader’s grin”) I absolutely loved this book! Now I’ll admit, I am the easiest sucker for nearly any good romance book (as much as I hate to admit it, the cheesier the better, although IContinue reading “Book Review #2. “Maybe Someday” by Colleen Hoover”
My Colleen Hoover Obsession
Short post here (I know, it’s summer break and I promised to post more often, but between writing my 3-5 book series (that I shouldn’t even say that I’m writing), writing a new book, reading a TON and even nearly beginning to startContinue reading “My Colleen Hoover Obsession”
The other book that has a character with my disability
If you go online and type in “Morquio A Syndrome” onto the search bar (which I don’t recommend doing, the first things that pop up will be a few vague and hard-to-read definitions of the disorder, maybe a few pictures of people withContinue reading “The other book that has a character with my disability”

Writing with the Flow.
While I wholeheartedly believe that when it comes to writing, the quality of a story is far more important than the quantity (number of pages, chapters etc) I am proud to inform everyone who is reading this that in the past seven days, I have written 150+ pages in the story about The Damn CatContinue reading “Writing with the Flow.”

While I’m not ready to share any details about this new book (or even the 3-5 book seriesContinue reading “Turning a New Page… of a New Book”
What makes a Writer

I took a few creative writing courses in high school, stayed after school once every other weeks to share short stories and poems with the Creative Writing Club and looked forward to each of my English classesContinue reading “What makes a Writer”

Two days in the Life of Samantha Reens; one before her surgery, and one after.
There are two parts in my novel “Taylor’s Bond” where you get to see part of what a typical day of high school looks like for Samantha Reens. One, three days after the semi-finals basketball game in which the captain walks through those hallways with her head high up on her shoulders, and another, whichContinue reading “Two days in the Life of Samantha Reens; one before her surgery, and one after.”
What I wonder while I’m Writing
Is this actually a good idea for a story?Is this character even likable? Is the character too likable?Is the plot even believable?Is the storyline predictable? Why do I have so many ideas, and yet I know I can only use so many of them? (The solution to this, is to use them all). Did IContinue reading “What I wonder while I’m Writing”
