Write—Really!

Happy New Year!
If one of your goals is to write a novel
or a short story this year, you’ve come to the right blog.
When people learn that I’m a writer, they
often tell me: “I want to write a book, but…” and then they go into longwinded
explanations about why they can’t write
it. Usually they don’t know where (or how) to start, or they say they don’t
have the time.
Well, I’ve got a solution for all that.
And
as an author of more than 100 short stories and 24 romance novels, I’m often
asked: Where do you get your ideas? How do you write a book? What advice do you
have for writers who are just starting out? Do you have any writing tips? Can
you help me?
Sure I can!
One
day I started thinking about everything I’ve learned over the years, and
inspiration hit me: Why not write a book on how to write? The result? You Can
Write—Really! A Beginner’s Guide to Writing Fiction.
This fun and practical book walks
you through the story-creating process step-by-step from getting a great idea
to meeting your characters, developing a plot, and on to writing, revising, and
submitting your work.
Each
easy-to-read chapter is based on my years of experience as a writer, advice
I’ve received over the years, and the technical “know-how” I’ve gained in
writing classes and workshops. I also included helpful tips all writers can
use, plus easy writing exercises to get you motivated.
I’m an eclectic writer, and that
means I write everything—short horror fiction, full-length romance novels,
science fiction, mysteries, and thrillers. People are always asking me, “How
can you write in so many different genres and styles? What’s the secret?”
It’s really not that difficult. Why?
Because the basic mechanics of good storytelling are universal, no matter what
genre you write. Every fiction story contains the same ingredients: an
interesting and engaging plot, characters the reader cares about and roots for,
supporting details, and background that draw the reader into the story.
