The Groove

For those of you who fancy yourself writers -- 
Don't be too hard on yourself about when you write.  It takes finding your groove (have you read When Stella Got Her Groove Back?)  When I'm not writing I get grumpy. I need to be writing or editing a project regularly for my Muse to be satisfied.  I'm writing the fifth book in my sci fi series and am about 25,000 words in. I broke off to finish the edit on the romance I've had in the drawer for a number of years. I have a contemporary mystery started, which is about 11,000 words. I have more than one project going at a time. When I get stuck I go to another project.  Some days I sit down at my computer and have no idea what will happen but I just tell myself, "Write!" and I don't worry if it is good or not. All my books require a certain amount of research so that factors in but doesn't count as writing.  For me creative writing counts as writing.  I don't outline. My brain doesn't work that way. I just write and depend on the characters to carry the story.

It's holiday time and I'm  offering a special promotion of my science fiction books on Amazon Kindle.

Look for it in the Kindle Store under Kindle Countdown Deals. The other three books in the series will be offered in the following consecutive weeks. The Deovolante series is about good aliens from a utopian galaxy who are trying to help Earth and her inhabitants. The second book is The Next Universe Over, the third is Hoodoo Canyon, and the fourth is Earth Rising. All these are also found in Kindle Unlimited for free. Let me know if you have any questions.
