Can you believe it?! I’m actually blogging! This post is dedicated to my friend T, who was admin of a fansite I worked on for several years. T would always talk about how she got her greatest moments of insight while in the shower, and I can honestly say that she’s right. Think about it!Continue reading “Shower epiphany”

Stolen moments
I’m going to have to start learning how to write differently. When drafting VICKY, I spent many a Saturday just letting myself write freely into my lazy day. As my self-imposed deadline for finishing got closer, I made an outline that still had me putting in at least an hour every day. After years ofContinue reading “Stolen moments”
HAHA J/K! I need an outline.
Okay, so remember a few months before NaNoWriMo I wrote a blog post where I’m all, “Forgot planning! I’m just going to write! Leggo!” Well… That didn’t go so well.

I never intended anyone to see them for the most part, so I just wroteContinue reading “My name is Florence, and I write fantasy.”
Look! Something shiny!
I just sent my agent a revision outline for my manuscript VICKY. It look longer than I would have liked to complete it, because, life.

So here we are…
This is definitely not the start of my writing journey, but it is the start of a new chapter of my writing journey. Over the years I have started and stopped many blogs, but I have also started and created successful and sustainable ones. I’m hoping this is one of the latter :). I’ll beContinue reading “So here we are…”
