I’ve got news! I was watching YouTube videos on my phone when a email notification popped up. When I opened it it spoke about Kindle Scout which I did not know was a thing (if you don’t know don’t worry I’ll tell you in a minute) and it highlighted how you can sign up for …
Just earlier today I posted this post on Banshees from the Irish mythology but I figured I could also share how I incorporated this into my story. In falling for Pink my main character Peggy McCarthy is a banshee which means that her scream heralds death. But the thing is that when I started planning …
Okay let’s talk mythology. On to draft 2 of my story Loving Pink and I once again had to revisit my research on Irish mythology to make sure I have all my facts right. To those of you who don’t know in my paranormal romance novel the main character, Peggy McCarthy, is a …
It’s 11:30 pm and I just finished with the second draft of Falling for Pink and I’m just so excited about this! I literally sat down read it from beginning to end after not touching it in over a month and fixed any spelling errors or plot holes that I came across. The amazing …
