Thursday posts tend to be about the craft of writing for me. Either things in writing, my writing, anything goes, because as much as I ask you guys, I still treat it with more of a get to know the author sort of day. And it would be completely unfair of me to have a … Continue reading Lessons Taught In The Middle

Red Letters Lessons – WIP World Mood Board
This month, I am working with a Random Red Letters theme, sticking to beginnings, back stories, and lessons learned. Because September is the month that the Red Letters universe starts off in. Our very first sighting of our main characters is a September night. So this month has all that first time, before it even … Continue reading Red Letters Lessons – WIP World Mood Board
Monday Music Lessons
What with the prior week on Woods, and this week's visual post, it feels like a good Monday to talk about themes and lessons with music. I listen to lyrics, and sometimes they sound like elevator pitches of the larger story, which is why Red Letters is so intertwined. If you are curious, I do … Continue reading Monday Music Lessons
Backstage Red Letters – Woods Before The Fall (Fiction Friday!)
For today's Fiction Friday, I invite you to consider what 5 minutes changes. 5 minutes could mean missing the accidents, or catching the lights and transportation. In this case? Today's short story is Red Letters Lore, but also begs the question of what happens if Woods waited just 5 more minutes that night. Because his … Continue reading Backstage Red Letters – Woods Before The Fall (Fiction Friday!)

Aftermath – Hot Soulful Nights
If the book bar had a sign one could read, it might be this. Because the nights? Visuals don't do it justice. Clothes are optional, and replacement options are loudly hilarious. You should plan to party hard, or else you will be woefully unaware and in pain the next day... You may or may not … Continue reading Aftermath – Hot Soulful Nights
Heating Up Music Monday
This playlist mixes both the Hot Soulful Nights and the Scorching Red Letters vibes. If pictures on a mood board can tell one story, and the fiction Friday tells it a different way... Today I can try to let you into my head for another version of the writing process. Because I love a good … Continue reading Heating Up Music Monday
Sinful Summer Friday Fiction
This week I have a tiny short that hints at something I will call Red Letters Lore. There is always a 'first time', or the original idea takes root and we see it later, in bigger fashion in the legendary tales told. I am not sharing the first time just yet, because it's better in … Continue reading Sinful Summer Friday Fiction
