Round 2 of Publishing!
The zoom parties just don’t end. Instead of being up all night finalizing a manuscript, I screen shared with my two new authors to do several rounds of tweaking to remove any errors in the preview launcher. Those who publish online with Amazon know what I’m talking about. Those yellow triangles that tell you whenContinue reading “Round 2 of Publishing!”

Cities Around the World
Reading other writers never fails me. There’s always some line that makes my highlighter busy, and the frenzy of copying it down so that I don’t forget it. Today, is no different and my next bit of inspiration came from the introduction of Around the World in 80 Books, by David Damrosch. The line thatContinue reading “Cities Around the World”
Vignette Prompt
While the countdown to press the publishing button is going for myself and my fellow writers, I picked up David Damrosch’s, Around the World in 80 Books again. We’re going to start our week with one of his ideas from the very beginning, his introduction. He mentioned the author, Xavier de Maistre, and how hisContinue reading “Vignette Prompt”

Fantasy Writing Prompt
The second night of writing music continued, and I was treated to the soundtracks from Studio Ghibli movies. Instead of levitating snowflakes. Yellow flower petals softly fell down in the foreground of a small Japanese village overlooking the sea. One school girl made her way down a winding hill with her bag in front ofContinue reading “Fantasy Writing Prompt”
The One
Last night, I discovered writing playlists created by other writers on YouTube. Then, I switched to party music before some random channels started playing and my catlike eyes lifted up to the screen when some soft bamboo music started to play. My body relaxed as I watch the snow up from the ground and towardContinue reading “The One”

All Nighter
The all nighter is finally over and I felt like I was in school studying for a final. Friday night approached and I was determined to return the final book review to my fellow writers. What I really wanted to do was to have a good dinner, rest, and relax after a long week. IContinue reading “All Nighter”
Love Notes
I was getting ready for today’s prompt when something wonderful happened. My forgetful nature of setting things down and forgetting them gave me a surprise. I hid a Valentine’s Day card for my husband in one of the books I’m reading, and it made me smile. I thought, “What a great surprise to give someone,Continue reading “Love Notes”
Publishing Race
Crunch time is here for my two authors and I’m feeling the deadline pressure. There are few more things I need to share when it comes to the hitting the publishing button, and you may want to look at the FAQs of your fellow authors who’ve used the same platform. Why? Hitting publish isn’t theContinue reading “Publishing Race”
