Writer’s block? I hate it as much as any other author. What do you do to solve it?

Sometimes we think too much and we end up stifling our own creative writing process. Here’s some motivation fellow writers. Just get it written!

Critique partners and beta readers. Do I really need both? Well...

What’s the best way to find beta readers? While there are multiple sources, I mention CP matchmaking, critiquematch.com, and betareader.io in this episode. Here’s what I’ve discovered on my journey.

Is my book a good idea? Should I go ahead and write it or keep it to myself? Where’s the defining line?

This episode is a follow on my tutorial on onestopforwriters.com particularly dealing with mapping out your story. How to go from your setup to the aftermath of your manuscript. How do you organize it?

Ever wish you could talk to your former writing self? What advice would you give? What pitfalls would you have avoided?

How long should my book be? Depending on your genre, the word count can have various ranges. Since I’m in the romance genre, it can range from 50K to 90K. I’ve even seen 100K! You might think, how am I supposed to write 100K? When is my book over?

Here I’m giving an update on my experience so far with booksprout.co. I’ve already received a 4 star review for my upcoming release, Match-Made Christmas! Yes it’s only one review, but it’s better than zero.

ARCs? These are advanced readers copies of books that an author chooses to give away in exchange for a review. This comes in handy right before your official release date. It builds excitement and publicity for your book! So... how do you get them? Here’s one way! Booksprout.co is mentioned in this episode. Follow @booksproutapp
