edit data

Kari Chaplin is a stay home parent of three wonderful children. She lives in Norman, Oklahoma with her husband and children. After she, hesitantly, allowed one person to view her partial draft, her fan base began to quickly grow. Publication became a reality from the pressures and begging of her followers. Her love of writing grows with every word. Darkness Awakens is her first published work and first installment of the Darkness Awakens Series. Look for more books in the near future. Kissed By Darkness is the current project Kari is creating.

The times, I guess you may call writer's block, I either went into edit the story until inspiration hit me or I turned off my computer. I didn't stress over it. I went back to my daily. I found that at the worse possible moments, inspiration would strike. I remember washing dishes one day and I was swept into the world of Darkness Awakens. I was at the bar having a conversation with the characters. When I came out of the daydream, I realized there was no way I could write with three kids needing my attention, dinner to cook and so fourth. So I opened my phone and wrote the notes on a notepad app. If I had to answer that, I would say that I put it down until inspiration took ahold of me. (less)

Most of the time, I have no clue where a tiny idea is taking the story. I feel like I am part of these worlds that I create. I feel like they are vacation spots I frequent. (less)
