I am sure you’re thinking of writer’s block, but no, that’s actually not the worst thing to happen to a writer. Writer’s block can be chipped away at by writing down the things randomly going through your mind, going to the gym or for a run/walk, and figuring out where you possibly painted yourself into…
Ever have a rough week and go out to treat yourself? What happens when you see that hot guy sitting on the other side of the bar? Does your imagination take over and feed you naughty desires? The week had been ridiculously long and full of demands from bosses and coworkers. It was a perfect…
I couldn’t stop thinking. The images kept cycling through my mind. I wasn’t someone who would be considered to have some form of hyperactive disorder but I certainly felt like it all of a sudden. “Is it hot in here?” I rolled down the window. The big behemoth the guy I was seeing had was…
Sizzling Nibbles is a new category for the random short stories that I come up with on the spur of the moment. As usual, this is naughty, steamy, and erotic. Enjoy! Bent over the foot of the bed with my pants and panties around my ankles, I waited. I didn’t have much time, and I…
Some Tips and Tricks to get you out of a slump for the New Year 1: If you always write on the computer try writing on paper. Scribble, doodle, write your heroine’s name in goofy cursive like a teenager in love with the hero’s last name. Getting away from the screen now and then may…
Hey awesome readers, I know that I haven’t been here in quite a bit, but I haven’t been completely gone. I’ve been diving into books, writing, tv shows, and cleaning. Winter is on the way (you thought I was going to type the iconic line and now I’ve disappointed you, yes?) and I’ve been trying…
I saw this on Instagram and I’ve seen it before on Facebook, Twitter, everywhere. I saw it again tonight and thought, that’s very true. The elusive ‘They’ says that one bad apple can spoil the whole bunch. Honestly? I’ve never seen that actually happen (and if you crush all of the apples into cider, that…
Ever feel like your Muse has gone fishin’ without telling you? You sit down to write but the characters aren’t cooperating, the words aren’t flowing, and (as if that weren’t enough) something else is nagging at the back of your mind. There are several reasons why you could feel like your muse is ignoring you….
Dreams are a gateway to another universe deep inside yourself. They allow you to answer questions that have been nagging you for weeks, be with people who don’t even notice you, or tell off your superiors from work when you’ve had enough. Dreams can enliven us or frighten us by becoming nightmares. They can also…
Writing While Life Happens It’s easier than you think you find the time to write. I don’t recommend writing during a meeting at work or during class. These are things that are important to your livelihood. Don’t jeopardize your wellbeing. Recently, I went to an appointment with my daughter and had an hour of time….
“I can’t buy your book because I don’t own a Kindle.” Kindle Not Required You would not believe how often I hear this. And, while I don’t personally go out to actual people and say “Hey, buy my smutty stories!” I do let people online know that I write smutty stories. Some people even tell…
The title of this post is the number of words that I have written since I first signed up for my 750words.com account. Now, don’t get me wrong, there are many, many moons that went by that I didn’t write. What drives me batty is that the number of words there could be the equivalent…
Everyone makes mistakes. No, really, even me. I make mistakes. There, I admitted it. It will probably never happen again. When you get that rush of a story in your head and all you can do is type furiously, or handwrite if you prefer that (I get hand cramps like you wouldn’t believe after mainly…
I’m sure some of you will want to rant and rave at me. What I write here is my personal opinion. There is just some advice that I can’t fathom and refuse to follow. I’ll explain my reasons. Take a deep breath and relax. 1. You need to ignore everything except writing, including hunger. Really?…
Netflix Something else that has been distracting me is the fact that Netflix finally got their bloody claws on 9 seasons (yes, NINE) of Criminal Minds. I have been waiting, begging, praying, sacrificing (okay not really) for this to happen. And it has. I’m somewhere within season 3 I think. Helping Others Yes, helping others…
Don’t get me wrong, these are all things that needed doing (especially eating lunch, food is VERY important. DO NOT let other authors tell you that you have to be starving and hangry to write. JUST. DON’T.) I did write almost 700 words, but it certainly wasn’t my goal. There are days where I have…
All the typos Yes, there are those who genuinely have typos. I do myself. And I’m also one of those who will do the whole ‘corrected spelling’^ in chat, in text, and sometimes even on Twitter. (Though usually any tweets with typos are immediately deleted and recreated if I find them immediately. Otherwise, screw it.) As…
Drunken Muse There are so many days I feel that my Muse has gone off on a bender and is bar-hopping, black-out drunk, hitting on women who think he is just a sleazeball. Then there are the days where he is excruciatingly sober and my light bulb completely explodes because someone, either in conversation or…
I have always wanted to be a novel writer. I wanted to grab a reader by the throat and keep them entranced until they finished every single word and when they put it down I wanted them to not only feel satisfied with the ending, but also that they went on an adventure. I think…
What is in a name you ask? Sometimes, it all can depend on a name. If you name a character and that name didn’t exist until 20 years later, there are people who will know. It might be less than a handful, but somewhere out there, they will know. And they might call you on…
