And kinda doing everything but write despite a looming deadline.ĪKA getting those creative juices flowing… So while I figure out how wealthy families can feud over inheritance and what can one carry as far as something valuable enough to go after, I’m drawing. It’s one thing to write something that fits some sort of mold and in this case, a romance novel. It’s one thing to write because you want to write. So as of yesterday I threw my hat in the ring with a new novel, and now I’m stumped. It’s disappointing to say the least and enough for me to just say, screw it! I’ll just self-pub.īut then it hit me! I’ve already self-pubbed! Now what else haven’t I tried? For one I haven’t even done the legwork to get myself an agent, neither have I shopped my novels around (so busy self-pubbing, that’s why). It took me some time to think about it, what with forum talk about how Harlequin is the worst there is for writers and something about a 2.6% payday per book sold once everything else is deducted. And the winner will have the chance for a 2-book publishing contract with Harlequin. In this case it’s the next romance novel. for some reason I have a hard time not finishing an entire book not matter if I like it or not.So Wattpad is having this contest that’s in partnership with Harlequin and it’s called So You Think You Can Write.

I had to speed this book up to 1.5 because I needed to get through it. Southern to Yorkshire, she had no clue what either sounded like. Apparently in her world everyone speaks like that.

It was distracting and I didn't even hear a separation between characters voices. She read every line EXACTLY the same way.

if I wanted to hear the clip-clop of horses, I'd listen to horses, not an audio book. This went on and on throughout the book that I gave up. even challenging Riley to choose things because she wanted them even though her sister didn't want her to have them. Ashe was the ONLY character I did care for. Who, I might add, used her, manipulated her, and only wants her simply because someone even breathed in his Ex's direction. why? Because he's an actor and actors are just like her selfish, conceited, ex called Gareth. So much so, she makes Riley SWEAR to not see Ashe ever again. Because she had a successful life, she uses her own 'good' choices to push Riley to do what she wants. A girl with a crapton of issues, she folds the minute her sister tosses past mistakes in her face.
