New year, renewed hope, fresh plans and more ideas than ever. This is the short version for my plans for this year. While during the end of 2013 I've concentrated more on reading, I've started the year writing.
I'm happy to have published some haiku last year and though the sales weren't fabulous, the idea of someone buying them and reading the...

Have a happy 2014! I hope everybody will get to fulfill their dreams, hopes and complettee their plans! Have a happy new year!

It's November 1st and this is the first day in #NaNoWriMo. I'm very excited about it and though the day is not over yet, I have just achieved the 1667 words goal for today. I'm not stopping, though. Just taking a break to blog about it, to share my excitement.
Secrets and Lies (not very original, I know - just work title) is a romantic YA fantasy. 
Keira is a fairy hiding in the human world who stumbles upon more complications - very much unwelcomed ones, since she already has her fair sha...

Yup! I'm doing NaNo this year. I've decided just yesterday, signed up and dugged through my documents for an old outline for support. (Is having a 7-8 K words outline cheating? I hope not)
In February I signed up for NaHaiWriMo to learn discipline by writing a themed haiku daily. Done, and continued that process for two more months. 
This summer I've written 3 outlines (complete outlines - worlds, characters, timeline) which was a big step for me. Now it's time to extend one of them to a b...

 My review
The Fearie War is the stunning and much awaited end of The Creepy Hollow series. I've been waiting for this book - breathless - ever since reading the last (shocking, surprising and original) page of the second book in the series, The Faerie Prince.
The book starts with Vi in a new setting, in an unusual frame of mind, troubled. Through this final book, V must learn who she is and rediscover herself as person after memory loss to help save her world. And she does. She grows. She...

This month my insecurity is at the lowest level ever - in all things writing, at least. Though my 5 k/day didn't last more than 2 weeks and then I went at lower levels, I've finished 2 first drafts out of 3 and the last one is nearly ready. Yay! That's a lot of writing for me. 
I've accomplished my goal for September - finish a 1st draft....

Alex J Cavanaugh , the most supportive writer and internet promoter has just released his third book, CassaStorm. Congrats, Alex!


My curiosity regarding CassaStorm was related to writing: the most difficult to write character and scene were ... because ... And here you have the answer:                                 The most difficult charact...
