The Thrill of Romance
by M. L. Buchman"I got my start in romance." It's funny to have that fixture in my life. I'd written other novels first, but the initial titles that launched my full-time career were romance. Specifically military romantic suspense, following the lives and loves of the Night Stalkers. No matter where my writing career leads me, I will always that marker: "I got my start in romance."Of course,

A Series of Unfortunate Events by Sarah Raplee
This month most of us are sharing what we are currently working on, our work in progress (WIP). I have so many unpublished stories that
need final edits and covers, and outlined stories that are crying out to be
written. Now that I’m in the right headspace (more like soulspace) to get back to

My world has changed. THE world has

A Work in Progress is Hard Work
By Courtney PierceDo you believe in ghosts?When I've been asked that question in the past, I offer a hesitant nod, followed by a wink and a smile. I didn’t really believe in ghosts beyond the normal psych-out from watching a scary movie.

Losing it All: Writing In A Pandemic #scifi #coverreveal
Hi, I'm Pippa Jay, author of sci-fi and supernatural stories with a romantic soul. It's been a while since I actually had a WIP, but I suppose the pandemic has had some positive outcomes. When I was first sent home from work, I threw myself into doing as much of my job as I could from home, closely followed by as much physical stuff as I could to keep my mind off the state of the world, and

Trying My Hand At A Series
I'm thiiiiiiis close to finishing my current WIP - A Firm Hand - which is Book 1 in the Bedford Brothers series. My first series! Up until now I've only written stand-alone stories. Totally unrelated. But last year, from that mysterious place where story ideas emerge, Tyler, Jace and Blair Bedford appeared. Aussie brothers, country guys, each involved in a different area of the rodeo world.

Bone Broth Soup: Easy, Healthy & Delicious...by Kristin Wallace
Eating healthy isn't always easy. (I don't succeed much of the time.) However, I did find a soup recipe that is really delicious and super healthy. It uses something called bone broth, and it's very easy to make. If you're trying to cleanse your system, lose some weight, or you're following the Keto diet, it's also good for that.Easy Bone Broth SoupIngredients:Chicken bone broth (you can make

A Blogversation: YA Romance by Lynn Lovegreen
Unlike genres, young adult (YA) is a category or age range. The main characters are teens, roughly 12-18 years old. You can find YA contemporary, fantasy, paranormal, mystery, and many other genres. I write YA historical fiction set in Alaska, and there’s always at least a thread of romance in there. YA romance is a perennial favorite. Why not—who can resist the first kiss, the high school date,
