Ahhhh! After three years (pushing four) you all are still reading Spirit Lake! As I sit here signing and preparing to ship out more books, I am filled to the brim with gratitude. I am so incredibly thankful for all of your support and words of encouragement. As writers, we put our hearts on the inked line and hope for the best. It’s not always easy or rewarding but you guys have taken tremendous care of mine.
Read MoreToday marks one year since Spirit Lake first released. I felt so many emotions while writing this novel and I still feel so many as I reflect on the past year. This was my baby, my first born, one that will forever hold a special place in my heart. I am still very much in love with the characters, the storyline, and the town of Spirit Lake, and as I gather new ideas for the second book in the series, in light of this special occasion, I decided to give a little BTS on what it took to bring this love story to life.
Read MoreAs a writer, I’m always asked about the writing process. How do I come up with characters, where my inspiration comes from, what’s my writing routine, etc. I promise to cover all of those questions in a later post, but today I want to talk about my “writing station.” Although I do have a designated writing desk that I use often, my “writing station” can be set up anywhere at anytime. It’s basically the bare essentials I use whenever I need to get my ideas down on paper, whether it’s a blog posts, poem, or the current novel I’m working on.

I began writing my second novel at the start of the year and had plans on completing the first draft by the last day in March. Fast forward several months; It’s now the last day in…(Looks at calendar) June! I’m a little over 63,000 words in and still not as close as I would like to be to the finish line. How’s that for procrastination?
