During the pandemic social isolation, I revised the very first novel I wrote, Sabine. I incorporated recommendations from critiques I heard at a writer's conference I attended a few years ago. I'm currently working on the series again with the help of my critique group.
I 've reread all these novels several times. Lucky for me, I still like all these characters, especially Sabine and Billy, but Josephine may be my all-time favorite. She's a hot mess (when you read Book Three, you find out why). I've incorporated the recommendations from my critique group for Sabine and Billy's Story and am currently working on Josephine's Journals. Sabine is available as a free download when subscribing to my website.
I use Pinterest for inspiration and have boards for all of my novels. Visit my profile and check out the images of pets, homes, decors, clothing, scenery that I envision for my characters. The novel boards were created by title.
I'm an Indie Author, responsible for my own publishing and marketing. Only one out of every ten readers leave reviews on Amazon or GoodReads. Favorable reviews are gold for indie authors. I read them and learn from the criticism as well as the compliments.
Check out my other blog posts where you'll find recipes from my Meg Miller Cozy Mystery Series, and reviews of books I've liked. I leave recommendations on BookBub. Check those pages out too.
I love to write and turns out I love to edit my stories based on recommendations also. I like to hear what readers think and want to know if they can identify with my characters. For me, the characters are real, and I love it when readers can relate to them.
