THANK YOU ALL FOR 1,000 FOLLOWERS ON TWITTER! I can’t believe how many of you are supporting me in my writing journey. I can’t begin to tell you how much I appreciate it. The writing community is so supportive and friendly and I’m so glad I joined.

As promised, I have written a short story about one of my side-characters in GLISSANIA. I put the characters to a vote between Queen Cara, Senna, and Cressa. Cressa won! Yay! So here is her story, THE HEALING WITCH. Enjoy!

While I was editing a week or so ago, I decided to add a new scene. Fast forward to a few days later and I have that scene done and I’ve set it up to write not only another scene but a huge plot point. How does that even happen?

The Story of the First Draft of my First Book

Two years after I started writing Glissania, I finished the very first draft.

Now let me tell you, it wasn’t easy. I knew close to nothing about writing novels when I started. I knew how to write stories, sure, but not novels. Before Glissania I hadn’t written anything more than five pages. I struggled…a lot…in the beginning, mostly. And more than anything, I learned so much about writing.
