Victoria Smith My neighbor gets unexpected empty cans of can food her yard regularly. Now, we just need to find out who the culprit is?
Victoria Smith The second book came right out of the first book. The characters just fell into the second book. I didn't plan it to be a series but now that the second book is completed (not published yet), it leads into the final third book. The baby from the first book now has her own story. Again, it's still about family love and always trying to do what's best.
Victoria Smith I like to walk my talk Daisy, pictured. I get lots of ideas as we walk. A lot of my stories have animals in it. I have always had animals growing up, and have always had animals when my own children were growing up. Ideas sometimes, fall from the sky (okay not literally) but I like to keep a notepad and pen handy so I don't forget an idea or ideas on our walk.
Victoria Smith The best thing is saying I'm a children's writer. Just saying it is fantastic. I go into the grocery store and my favorite cashier always says, "Oh, there's the author. You better get her signature now before she is gets too big,!" Then people in line want to know what my name is and what do I write. Wow, that's the best thing about being a writer. Thanks, Edwin at Lucky's!
Victoria Smith Fortunately, I have several books already written but not published. I'm taking these to fruition one at a time. I'm able to complete possibly two a year. With that in mind, I have about the next 4 years covered. Hopefully, more ideas will come, I definitely will jot them down for year 5.
Victoria Smith I am currently working on a continuation of Tuxedo Baby. His family from Chile come to visit and some stay. The cousins that stay causes problems for Tux. In fact, Tux follows unfortunately, his cousins into trouble. Stay tune for a publishing date!
Victoria Smith Carve out a time daily where you can dedicate to writing. Begin with 4-5 ideas you'd like to write about. Then select one of them that you feel you want to write about the most and you will find it the easiest for now. Then write! Know who you are writing for. Who is your audience? Knowing that will direct your writing.
