Anne Berkeley How did I miss this? So sorry! His book is actually releasing November 25th! It took me a little longer to write this book due to personal reasons. Though, I've had it planned since the first book. Nonetheless, it's finally here! I hope you enjoy!!
Anne Berkeley Most definitely. I have three planned. the plots are all planned out. I'm just trying to complete the Hautboy series first. then I plan to focus on Thaleia again. Miss the pack. :)
Anne Berkeley Two more. I am completing the third in the series right now. I hope to have it released in January. This book will focus around Jake, but like the others, you'll see the characters from past books.
Anne Berkeley It would be an even draw between Feral and Someone to Watch Over Me. They were my third and fourth books written. By the time I began writing them, I was a little more comfortable with the whole writing process. I wasn't as reluctant to let my humor really come out. And I defined who I was as an author.
Anne Berkeley I really need to zone. Music helps at times, but it has to coincide with the scene I'm writing or it doesn't work. For the most part, though, I shut everything down and let myself think, envision the scene.
Anne Berkeley First thing I do is go back and read the last chapter or two in my book, or I'll use the time to read someone else's work. Sometimes it'll kick start my brain. If that doesn't work, I'll use that time to socialize and interact with the reading community. I frequent Goodreads, twitter and Facebook. It keeps my time productive.
Anne Berkeley Hearing from my readers, especially when the 'get it.' I often wonder if they understand my sense of humor or a certain point I'm trying to get across in a scene. If they catch the loopholes I've left open in a story. If they see my character as I want them to see her or him. It's nice when I receive feedback or a review and I can see that they did.
Anne Berkeley Read. It's the best thing you can do to get your creative juices flowing, that and shutting everything down except your mind. It allows you time for your mind to wander.
Anne Berkeley Turbulent, the third and last novel of the Tempestuous series. I think I'll feel a sort of accomplishment when it's complete. I look forward to it.
Anne Berkeley I honestly couldn't say. Things come to me in the strangest moments. And not just an idea, but a scene and the more I think about it, the plot line develops in bits in pieces. I try to write it down when they come, because I can lose them just as fast. I currently have about five works in progress, some further along than others.
