I'm working on a story about a country western singer named Tate, pretty sure that will be the name of the book. He meets a broken woman who intrigues him and he has to get to know her - you'll have to wait to see what comes next!

I haven't really had a "BLOCK", I've gotten stuck a few times where I said "now what?" I learned this tip at a workshop I attended that really helps me. Write down 10 things that COULD POSSIBLE HAPPEN and see if something strikes a story line - most times I only get to #4 or #5 and I have an idea.

WRITE! Nothing will ever be finished if you don't start. Believe in yourself. Connect and ASK for help from others. Find people who will be honest with you and tell you what they like and what they don't. Believe in yourself!
