A quote from "The Midsommer Women" highlighted in red on a screenshot of the kindle app. The quote goes:

"Let me make the tea" she tapped an impatient foot while waiting for the microwave to ding.

My current read is 'The Midsummer Women' by @jeanmroberts.bsky.social and it is such an enjoyable witchy read, steeped (tea joke) in rich culture and history. But what do you mean they're making tea in a microwave 😭 *cries in british*

But seriously, add this book to your tbrs!

Day 7 of books that influenced my writing. Eye of the World by Robert Jordan. World building at its finest. Truly opened my eyes to what writing in a fantasy world could be! #wot #writesky

Day 6 of 20 books that influenced my writing. John Steinbeck's of Mice and Men. So this was my introduction to stories that did not always end well. Powerful, gripping writing with a tragic ending and a look a true courage. #writesky #booksky #Miceandmen

Day 5 of 20 books that influenced my writing. Lloyd Alexander's The Black Cauldron. Read it when I was 10, it was my first time seeing a horribly flawed character redeem himself. Taught me the power of a redemption arc. #booksky #fantasy #adventure #Writingcommunity

Day 4 of 20 on influential books I've read. Holes, by Louis Sacher. Brilliantly written, Mr. Sacher showed me how backstory and planning was paramount in making a book great. Flashbacks can be critical and need to be placed well inside the storyline.

Book 3 of the books that influenced my writing. Sadly, some books show me how NOT to write. I won't call out the author, but there was a line meant as a battle cry in the book. It read, "For all the good of goodly folk!" This...does not get the blood pumping. Needless to say, I learned from it!
