What Mother's Day Offers Writers
Hello writers and readers!
Another Monday and this one will be a scorcher. I hope you enjoyed a Happy Mother's Day. I use the holiday to provide a little writing help in hopes of sparking your character creations. Give a read here:
http://www.sherryrentschler.com/what-...
Also today I posted a new pen on Instagram for #pinyourpen day. This pen celebrated National Endangered Species day on May 18. The item of the pen isn't endangered but it is worth reminding ourselves that so many species are in danger or are already extinct. Find me as @thepoetphoenix and let's connect.

Lost Gems of Character Development
Happy June, everyone!
Hard to believe that we've hit the midmonth of 2018. Where has the time gone? I hope it zipped by while you were reading or writing, yes?
I've opened this month with a blog post on Character Development and a little used technique to enrich your character profiles.
https://tinyurl.com/yclpqo34
Plus, today's #pinyourpen on Instagram is a pirate pen for Pirate Day Friday 2018 for Jun 9, a day celebrated in Australia to fight children's brain cancer. Check me out at @thepoetphoenix.
Finally, I didn't have a live Facebook chat in May because it was too close to Memorial Day and other events, so I'm saving it all up for June. Stay tuned!
Thanks for listening,

Are You Using the Wrong Slang?
Good Monday all writers and readers,
Hope your New Year is going well and that you didn't make resolutions but began healthier, happier habits!
I have a new blog post up this morning on using slang in your writing. Are you incorrectly dating yourself or your characters? Give a look and add this to the checklist for you and your betas! And readers, something to consider when asked to review!
https://tinyurl.com/y9q96jj9.
Keeping things short today. Look for more new stuff and a live chat is coming to my author page.
Read and write often,
Yours always, Between the Lines,
Sherry
