I haven’t read Jayne Davis. What would you recommend?

I loved the movie. I know what the critics said – critics are always critics – but after reading Regency romances voraciously for the past 10 years, I loved a dive into Napoleon, his loves, and his wars.

I love my vintage tabletop tree in the kitchen. As the only girl in the house, I treasure all the pinks!

The countdown has begun. Three days until The οΏΌChristmas Cottage releases. It’s always a little nerve-racking until the reviews start coming in.

I love this! I used to teach junior high and my reading corner was my favorite part of the classroom.

My heart says this is how I pay my bills, and I do want to get every son through college, so I will keep writing. I just have to be better about getting going sooner and staying on top of it. I’m not unhappy writing every day. I’m unhappy when I’m behind and have to write 12 hour daysβ€”for days.

I use dragon dictation on my phone and walk my neighborhood and make my characters talk and talk and talk until I finally know who I’m dealing with! It’s good exercise, but doesn’t give me coherent pages.

I was just about to say, before I saw this comment, that romance is grueling. I admire the authors who can write 6-12 a year, but I can’t do that & don’t think I need to. But somehow less output = laziness. But I don’t want to hate writing! It used to be a joy. (before became a career?)

Truth.

But you know, it’s not about the number of books, it’s about the confidence and the enthusiasm one brings to the process. I somehow need to get that back. Less pressure more pleasure?? Or something? 🀨

I’m a genre writer, too. I’ve written 75+ books but they are getting harder and harder. (And I don’t think I know them well enough. I don’t know them until they are interacting on the page). How do you get to know your characters? Any pre-writing tips or techniques? οΏΌ

Hey #writingcommunity I start a new book tomorrow, but starting a book is the hardest part of writing for me. I don’t know the characters, story is cold so I tend to push away, and it leads into weeks of struggle. Please share your best tips for getting going. Deadline is soon! #booksky #authors

Starting a new book Monday. Starting is so hard for me.

I love romances from the male POV. As a mom of 3 sons I have spent a lot of time trying to help them decipher girl speak. (They should have had a sister!)

Must check this out. I can’t ever plot until my characters are shaking down the story.

I do have some fav authors but I’m into a sweet Regency romance phase. (That’s lasted 4+ years!)
