@seekjustice I’m trying to write the last in the trilogy of Sector One. But I just started and beginning books is always hard for me. You know, getting back into the flow of voice and stuff. *groan*
Anywho, have you read any of Sector One?

What initially attracts you to subscribe to an email list?
I either know the person or am really interested in the free resource they’re giving out. Or they have a cool giveaway.
What kind of things should I write about?
I’d say it all depends on what kind of audience you’re trying to cultivate. Think about what your ideal audience would like…[Read more]

@daeus @audrey-caylin Thanks for the awesome tips! I’ll try to do as many as I can! 😀
Now, about the email list…I don’t actually know how to make one of those. Either you know?

Hey guys! I know that KP has lots of articles on this, but some of the options of building a reader base aren’t open to me. Like social media. I can’t do much of that.
Do you guys have any suggestions as to how I can promote my blog and writing to build a reader base?

So, in my new book, Firefly Town, there is a younger teenager, Josh, who’s deaf. He communicates with ASL, American Sign Language. The second main character, Clay, is hearing, but learned ASL to talk with him. Felicity, the MC, when she comes into town, meets Josh. She knows a few signs, from a deaf girl at college, and learns some more.

You know you’re a Kapeefer when you go to the library and see a book called Keeper and you think to yourself, “They spelled Kapeefer wrong.”

@Ethryndal ☺ Zikers. *floats with happiness*
lol I probably did scream at some point. 🤦 😆
I know for sure I laughed a little too loud when Rey forced the lightsaber and Snoke bonked her on the head with it. 🤣

@Emma-flournoy *grins* awww, thanks! It’s so great to be back.
Yes, my life has settled down a bit (thankfully). Or at least I’ve gotten to the point where the craziness doesn’t feel so overwhelming. 😝
Erm, I actually haven’t worked on my big projects a ton lately. 😅 I’ve been focused more on trying my hand at poetry. Also, I love recording…[Read more]

@daughteroftheking Ooooh, hard to say. I realllyyy like Data. We have a common obsession with Sherlock Holmes. 😜 But I also love Captain Picard.
Yeah, I think I’d have to say he’s my favorite, but Data is definitely a close second. 😀 You?

@itisastarrynight Zikers, you paint people?! That’s awesome! *shudders* I epically fail at that. XD
Yes, that’s the fun part about acrylics for sure. Also the fact that you can simply paint right over any mistakes you make, whereas in watercolor, correcting smudges and such is a bit more difficult. 😆

@notawriter. lol, no problem. I’m a professional ramble-answerer myself. 😝
Ah! I see now. 😀 My brother is very similar. He loves crafting stories in his head and learning a bit about writing, but he’s more serious about other things. Thanks for satisfying my curiosity. 😜

@sam-kowal Wowza, those stories sound fascinating!! 😀
Ugh, YES. Trying to make things fit together and keep track of all my magic systems is definitely the hardest part about world building for me too. *sigh*
That is such a cool idea about the snatches of memory being left on objects people touch! I would love to read a book that had that in it. 😀

@jenwriter17 Yess… I’ve been on a bit of a sci-fi kick lately, so here’s what I got in addition to those mentioned.
-Ender’s Game & Speaker for the Dead (the sequel) are my two favorite speculative fiction books of all time. There’s some language in both books, so if that concerns you, you probably want to stay clear of it, but the themes are…[Read more]

@jenwriter17 Oh, books….
Um………………………….
I just looked at my bookshelf and realized that besides Artemis Fowl, I don’t have a single sci-fi book on my shelf. Maybe that’s why I like writing it. I don’t have any……
Sorry. 🙁
