After being told by her doctor in 2009 that she would never work again, Éilísh decided to prove medical officials wrong rather than wallow in grief. Having decades of writing experience, Éilísh saw the opportunity to pursue her dreams full-time. Now, with 13 novels in various stages of the publication process, Éilísh is launching her writing career with the hope of inspiring others who have similar life situations.

The Magic of the Piney Woods: Born in Dallas, yet not a city girl, Éilísh grew up on a small farm in the heart of the Piney Woods just off the Alabama-Coushatta Indian Reservation, minutes from Woodville, TX. Running barefoot through the trees, her imagination soared. It was there that she fell in love with the art of storytellin

I do, on occasion, become stuck on a work in progress. That is usually when I don't have all the details worked out yet. When this happens, I take a break from that WIP and work on another WIP, or I will watch a movie with the family. When I go back to it, everything seems to fall into place. No matter how much we love something, we still need a break from time to time.(less)

The first thing you think of when you wake each day is the very thing you should be doing. If you want to write, then write. If you want to paint, then paint.

Pour yourself into your work. Learn the craft. There is always something new to learn. It is impossible to know all there is to know about anything. Take writing classes. Join writing groups. There are many online but also look for writing groups close to home. It's good to have a network of like-minded people, who can relate. You can also share tips.

Don't ever allow anyone to tell you there is only one way to write, or that you have to follow a specific routine. You write what is in your heart to write, and do it in the way that only you can. Follow your favorite writers. Learn from them, but use what works best for you.

Be a vicious self-editor. Kill your darlings if they don't fit in your WIP. Save them for something else. Never think you can get by without an editor. Even editors need editors. They are expensive. I know what it is to need an editor and not be able to afford one. But, don't think you can do it all on your own. Be careful of editors who will take your money and never deliver. Do your research. Find one you can trust.

There will be people who just do not like your writing style. That's okay. There are so many different genres and writing styles to appeal to what each reader does like. Forget the naysayers. Do your thing and be happy. (less)

“I have everything that I could ever need or want, in this moment and in this place and it lies within myself to be all that I was created for in this life. I will not faint and I will not falter!
