Madelyn Hill I'm from Rochester, Michigan, but now live in Rochester, NY! I've been to Lima and work with the primary school there often! Small world.
Madelyn Hill I was taking a shower--truly--and the line the father says right before he dies popped into my head. The line is: Through Hope, Faith and Honor ye can rule. The sister's names are Hope, Faith and Honor.
Madelyn Hill I am currently editing the first book of a trilogy. It is called the Wild Thistle Trilogy. It features 3 sisters who are honor bound to a pledge they made their father on his death bed. It is set in Scotland and the first book is Highland Hope, Book 2 is Highland Faith, and the 3rd is Highland Honor.
Madelyn Hill I'm sure they have heard this before, but write, write, and write some more. The more you write, the more you develop your voice and improve your writing. Also, you have to read. I read all genres and even non-fiction, but I am always reading.
Madelyn Hill Wow, there are so many things, but I love being able to share creativity with other people. I love creating a story from just a morsel of an an idea.
Madelyn Hill I research. That usually helps me find something to add to the story and I'm forced to get writing. Also, if I'm stuck in a particular spot, but know what the next scene should entail, I'll pop in notes like, "Hero will arrive, but not say what the heroine wants to hear" or "Hero does this, Heroine does that", etc.
