Help for Aspiring Writers

I urge you, everyone who wants to write a book, to begin. Where to begin? I would suggest with an OUTLINE….can be a sketch, can be ideas, can be a structured outline. BUT I always OUTLINE my idea for a novel, children’s book or writing of any genre or style. Without an outline is like fishing with no bait…you won’t catch anything. I will post more on HOW to make a successful outline later.

Write knowingly! Write knowing how to Outline, what to include and when to stop…I wouldn’t just go on and on and on….beginning, middle and end for the outline…but during the outlining process I put in a lot of basic details and leave some space to add more later.
Details such as characters names, ages, particular habits that make them unique. Was approached this past week for a ghostwriting job and when I told the lady the fee she decided to wait a bit, but I told her I would guide her and help her if she would write it. I have time for major paying projects however. If you have the funds for a major ghostwriting job, then message me…My time is so limited. I spent six months on a ghost writing job last year for a major publisher, for a book that is due out in mid January 2021. I did good and I worked with the author pretty hard and she eventually did a great job, and I can’t wait to see her finished book. She will be proud! This type of work involves a ton of work and takes up a lot of my time, so I must limit my projects or I won’t get my own work done!

Thanks to everyone who bought and are buying copies of the new novel and most who are buying the “set”…the intro which is titled #BigDaddyIsland, Kumbaya, Come by Here…and the novel, #AnotherIslandAnotherMoon…I also have copies ordered for home office and will autograph and mail you one if you will send me the chickenfeed! I’m having a blast with this novel…doing it all myself. I can and will teach you how to launch your own project.

Get Busy with your outline and do it now and if you need my help please message me on FB or here.

More later, and how much later the later is I DNK…fingers crossed that it is this year????

As I did in the new novel, Another Island, Another Moon, advice to aspiring writers today is “Write Your Truth!”

As I tell young writers and older writers also who are trying to write their stories and share their thoughts with the world, via children’s books, books for adults, essays, novels or poetry, “WRITE YOUR TRUTH”..…

I am so thrilled with the new novel, Another Island, Another Moon and the way readers have responded to this great summer read. It is a love story for the ages and as you read this book, I want you to remember what LOVE feels like, what LOVE acts like and what Love gives to us and us to Love. I want you to remember the boat rides, the beaches, the islands off the Georgia Coast, the gift shop at the dock where the Ferry stops and loads visitors to go out to the edge of the beautiful Atlantic Ocean to visit Sapelo and the other barriers.

Every day of our lives, we make memories and the memories become a powerful Strong Tower where we can go when our lives sink low like a setting sun, or rise high like a morning sunrise over Saint Simons Island or Cumberland Island. Or better….that very real spot of Paradise, called Big Daddy Island on the Georgia coast. Yes, we can go home to our memories again and again and relive the times when love moved us like a drum beat deep inside our souls and because of that old, though somehow faded and fading drum beat and those faded pictures in our mind’s movie reel, we can make it. We stand tall and fall hard on our knees before the memories of the greatest moments of love that we hold dear.

Leave the rest alone. If it doesn’t knock you upside the head, don’t waste time on it…If your heart does not beat double, and you don’t have chills and or tears won’t fall, leave it and go on to something that will shake you to your bones.

I was in New York with the absolutely stunning and destined author, Heather Graham, Iris Johansen and many more. I will never forget it…then I spent so many years working for children, writing stories to inspire and lift them. Now I’m back to the love stories. I wish you all could get a copy and if you cannot afford one, please message me. I will see that you do! Help me to make this a No. 1 and I will cherish the experience.
