Read aloud when you proofread and proofread, proofread, proofread! I proof my own work over and over until I find NOTHING to alter. Only then is my writing ready to release to my readers. The effort pays off in incredible critical and reader reviews, and lets readers know your writing is as professional as a self-published author can be.

I LOVE that my words affect the lives of so many people I don't even know -- and not only influence those lives now, like a speech might do, but for all the generations that will read it in years to come.

For me, writer's block usually resolves itself with a good night's sleep.

I have three projects in progress: the third eBook in The Legend of Lord Randall Castle series (Two full chapters written), the next eBook in my Memories series (Memory of Romance, hopefully finished in time for Valentine's Day), and a proofreading/editing job on a friend's first book for which I will write the foreword.

Usually, a story idea will float into my brain when my conscious mind mingles with my unconscious mind right as I am falling asleep. Then my brain starts to work on it while I sleep and I wake up needing to write before I forget.
