Bear and Bare : Grammar & Editing Tips
A few weeks ago, I posted about
Homophones and Contractions
. Homophones are words that sound alike (can be spelled alike or not) but have different meanings.
As an editor, I fix tons of homophones in manuscripts. From time to time, I thought I'd feature some commonly misused homophones.
Today, I'll discuss bear and bare. At first glance, these might seem easy.
SourceBear
An animal. Easy. Right?
Well, as a noun, yes.
Verb variations (past tense = bore, past participle = borne):
1. To hold up, support (bear weight)2. To give birth (bear a child)3. To produce by natural growth (bear fruit)4. To hold up under / be capable of (bear close examination)
Also bear down on something and bear in mind.
Bare
Some good adjectives for this one.
1. Without covering or clothing / naked2. Without the usual coverings or contents (bare walls)3. Open to view / unconcealed (bare dislike)4. Unadorned (bare facts)5. Just sufficient (bare necessities of life)
Verb (past tense: bared)
1. To reveal / uncover / expose (bare all in an interview, bare one's teeth)
Is there an editing/grammar issue that's always caused you trouble? If so, share it in the comments so I can feature it in a future post.

Making the Lists : The Writing Life
Happy Friday!
I'm having tons of fun with the release of Chasing Forgiveness, and I've re-committed to finishing Chasing Destiny, Tala Prophecy Book 3. I've actually written 7,500 words in the last three days. I need to keep up this pace to finish the rough draft by my deadline.
Just yesterday, I sent an image to my awesome book cover designer for inspiration. I couldn't help myself. This story is pouring out of me. Note to my betas: How's May looking for some reading?
So, I'm keeping this post short and sweet... gotta save my words for the novel.
But before I go, I wanted to share some great news from release day...
I actually hit as high as #33 in the top category, but I missed grabbing a screen shot. So far, each book has done better than the previous one on release day. I count that as a success.
Wishing everyone an amazing weekend.

www.wigflip.comPeek
Think of the two Es as eyes.
v. To look or glance furtivelyn. A quick or furtive look or glance
It's about a look or a look into something.
I often see a mistake with "sneak peek"... I think it's because sneak has eak, so it's easy to mistakenly type peak instead of peek.
Peak
n. The pointed top of a mountain or range (or anything) / the maximum point, degree, or volume of anything
v. To reach the top
He reached the peak of the mountain race, which was the peak of his racing career.
Pique
Most commonly used in the phrase "pique someone's interest."
n. to affect with sharp irritation and resentment, especially by somewound to pride / to excite or arouse (interest, curiosity)
v. to arouse pique in someone

Vampire Affliction by Eva Pohler Cover Reveal
Vampires, Demigods, and Gods--Oh, My!
It's time to reveal the cover for the second book in Amazon bestselling author Eva Pohler's The Vampires of Athens series.
Gertie has become friends, and has possibly fallen in love, with both a demigod and a vampire, who happen to be at war.

As the three unlikely friends discover that neither side is perfectly good or evil or right or wrong, they work together to try to bring about the best outcome; but, when their parents and the gods undermine their efforts and hang them out to dry, the three teens realize they're on their own and no one will save them.

Chasing Forgiveness Release Day & Giveaway
It’s finally here!
Chasing Forgiveness is a prequel novella in the award-winning Tala Prophecy series.
About Chasing Forgiveness
When terror strikes, forever altering your life, it doesn’t ask permission or forgiveness.
Madeleine and Amélie’s quiet lives are ripped apart by a creature they never imagined could exist outside a horror story. Their mother is murdered, their father is missing, and the only safe haven is with a family full of secrets. But rescue comes at a price.
Ripped from the light of youth, the sisters are forced into the shadows—where they meet brothers Rafe and Rowan.
It’s not the time for infatuation or love, but the heart rarely listens to reason.
Now, the young women have decisions to make. Will they be able to achieve their unified goal of stopping evil, or will it consume them from the inside out?
They soon learn some choices can’t be undone.
Author’s Note: This novella can be read as a stand-alone.

Happy Release Day!
Loving a unicorn is easy. Yourself . . . ? Not so much.
Val is powerful, kind, a bit quirky . . . but the daughter of hunters. Facing your long time crush is challenging on a good day. But throw in a set of parents who want to sell him, his family and his friends in bits and pieces for dark magic and it adds a whole new set of problems. As secrets are revealed and danger mounts, Val must come to terms with where she came from and become the woman she was meant to be.
Amazon

Always be yourself
That was the last advice Scout's Grandma Nora gave her before she died. Scout has spent her life trying to be anything but, but she has a chance to start anew as she moves several states away to college. She had always thought the glowing aura she saw around some people was a childhood fancy, but when it starts coming back just as she's starting her new life, she learns there was much hidden about who she truly is. Thankfully, she has a motley crew to help her along the way: a spunky bookseller, a trustworthy pub owner, a commanding grandmother, a possible best friend, and a hot rocker boy who only has eyes for her.
Bonus: “Witches, and Werewolves, and Unicorns, Oh My!” By Elizabeth Kirke: A More than Magic Series Short Story— Exclusively written for Unless You Can Be a Unicorn

Kelly Martin is a bestselling author of contemporary, historical, and YA romance. She has been married for over ten years and has three rowdy, angelic daughters. When she's not writing, she loves watching horror gamers on YouTube-- even though she's a huge wimp-- and drinking white chocolate mochas. She's a total fangirl, loves the 80s and 90s, and has a sad addiction to a certain British boy band (shhhh... and *tears*). Her favorite characters are the 'bad guys'-- especially those who, in their mind, are the heroes of the story. She loves helping her characters fight for their ever after.
