I’ve never had an artificial tree before this year. We always enjoyed the family tradition of either cutting down a tree ourselves from our land, and when those pines grew too tall, we would go choose the best tree at a tree lot.

Role-playing is kind of a controversial thing among writers. Before we continue, let me define this word so y’all are raising your eyebrows at me… Role-playing is basically a conversation between two authors, but they both have at least one character they “write” with. They exchange messages and the story progresses. That simple! It might be … Continue reading 5 WAYS ROLE-PLAYING CAN HELP YOUR WRITING

I told y’all I’d post about my NaNoWriMo project… y’know, since I finally decided what I’d be doing. I had a major toss up between two novels, but GOLGATHA won out. Buckle up kids, and let’s see what this novel is all about…   GOLGATHA GENRE: FANTASY, SUPERNATURAL (those are the main genres…) RATING: PG-13 … Continue reading MY NANO 2019 PROJECT … GOLGATHA
