Character Writing Tag!

Hello Lovely People,

I hope all is having a wonderful start to the weekend. I will do The Adventures of Editing Part 2 next Friday, but today I decided to the characters tag. I hope you enjoy it.

1. A crazy hacker’s gone into your computer, and has deleted all of your music, except for one song off of your writing playlist. Which song is it?

Well I haven't done playlist in a while thanks to a fellow writer Kim Chance, I listen to music scores now, but I did use to have one for Entrapment, so for that I would say 'Super Girl'  Krystal Harris or 'Get Up & Go' by Alana D. I know it said one I chose two.

2. Your protagonist and antagonist have been paired up by friends to go out to lunch together. Where do they go?

 The Sprincx (a restaurant near Avalon Academy)

3. You’re crossing a bridge when the troll living under it stops you. He demands to read a chapter from your novel, and won’t let you cross otherwise. Which chapter do you give him?

The Prologue or Chapter 19 I can't decide.

4. Your friends have invited you out to a party. Surprise! All of your characters are there. Who do you choose to hang out with? 

Jane because she loves books as much as I do, and she has become one of my favorite characters to write

5. Crap. You left your car keys in your house, and you’ve (somehow) locked yourself out. Which of your characters picks the lock for you? 

Alicia, Yasmine, or Bren aka Ezra most likely.

6. The zombie apocalypse is happening right now. (It sucks.) Everyone is fleeing the planet, and moving to Mars. ONE of your characters can go with you. Who do you choose? 

Alicia that's a given.

7. You’ve been given the opportunity to travel to one place (town, building, landmark, country) in your book. Where do you go? 

Valhalla Preparatory School of course.

8. You meet your main character and start a conversation with them. Problem is, you’ve only got six words or less to do so. What do you say?

Don't forget to remain calm.

9. Crazy acid rain is falling from the sky. Which of your characters would you use as an umbrella? 

Yvonne most the only one that  can protect me from she is the water elemental after all.

10. You’re out at a restaurant with your main character, and the time has come to order dessert. What do you order for them? 

Ice cream sundae with bit sized cupcakes. Sasha has a secret obsession with cupcakes...shhh

**Passing to all writers that have not done it yet you should it is fun**

The Summer Quarter Revealed!

Hello Lovely Beautiful People,

I hope everyone is having a wonderful day and you are having a great summer. I am so grateful for all the wonderful things that has happened this past year and all that I have accomplished by setting goals and achieving them. Alot took place I am surprised I accomplished so much actually, but somehow it got done. With school my situation  at home, looking for permanent work I am truly amazed grateful and I feel very blessed. I originally started setting up weekly goals, but I noticed that I wasn't getting much as I would like to done, and I came across Jenna Moreci (author of Eve The Awakening) vlogs. She has become one of my new favorite authors, anyways I liked her vlogs and subscribed to them. One vlog day she had quarterly goals I thought that was cool, and maybe I should try it, but I hesitated thinking that a 3 month goal system might make me lazy and prolong it, so I waited then the next quarterly recap to do it  or  the one after. When I finally did it the first quarter I completed a little less than half, but after that the more I kept doing them I was I noticed I was able to get more and more done. To take it a step further in my phone I have it set so that weekly I check my quarterly goals  to make sure I am staying on track. So it has worked really well for the most part. So Thanks & Shout Out To Jenna for sharing the Quarterly goal idea on her vlog. So now I have I have decided to implement them in my blogs as a post quarterly.

Independence Day! Author's Tag

Hello Lovely People,

Happy Soon To Be Independence Day! I hope everyone will enjoy their 4th of July and any other exciting plans they have this weekend. I been going through changes alot, and in a chaotic environment, but that is in the mist of changing. Thanks to Kim Chance, an author I admire I decided to participate in the author/writers tag and answer a few questions about myself that some people may have wanted to know.

What do you eat or drink while writing?

I would prefer to eat vanilla bean scones and a caramel frappe with chocolate drizzled on top from Starbucks. If I can't do that I would prefer green tea or any tea with Heath bar/Symphony bar (blue) or Whopper candy or just sparkling flavored water with the candy/Heath bar. On special occasions I will do Ferrero Rocher.

What do you listen to while writing?

I originally did songs that reflected the theme in the book. Thanks to Kim Chance for introducing the thought of film scores while writing. I love it they often help me through writer's block now.
Check It Out! This One Is My Favorite! It's a blend of many.
Film Score

What is your biggest distraction?

Probably the chaos that's going on around me until I move, which will be soon. My other distraction is my favorite tv shows like I recently did a Gilmore Girls marathon. Now I am doing this old cartoon I watched when I was a kid that I loved called Fillmore. I also surf the web, but its mostly for research purposes if its not  my favorite anime or manga.  Anime/Manga/Reading Books are great distractions when I have writer's block  though because it helps me  figure out where I went wrong and it's also fun.

Worst thing that has happened to you while writing?

When I did the complete story board & first scene in my first ever screenplay and lost the whole thing.  And another is I misplaced all the background information on my characters for Entrapment a while back scariest thing ever, but I eventually found it.

What is the best thing that ever happened to you while writing?

Writing Entrapment and starting my own literary imprint, LitArtistry Press and registering it which I will be giving more details about later.

Who do you communicate with while writing?

I do not communicate with anyone anymore during the writing process other than leaking excerpt of  chapters. I am an introvert so it a little difficult with groups of people, but I am good with one on one conversations, but I am slowly overcoming that.

What is your inspiration? What makes you productive?

I get inspiration from everywhere, but most when I am reading or checking out my favorite authors  and what they are up to, it motivates me to keep going and I remember why I wanted to be a writer. I think: I need to get busy. One way I  get productive is when I realize how much I have done and how much I want to complete. Another time is, I call it the Euphoria moment when ideas overflowing in my head I need to get them out before I loose them. Now I have a vault file for story ideas. Well I am thinking of setting up a reward for myself after draft is completed to motivate me even more. Reward: A pint of pistachio ice cream...lol Yum :-) it has become my new ultra favorite ice cream besides moo-llennium crunch, birthday cake, and bunny tracks ice cream.

What do you or other writers do that really annoy you?

I annoy myself when I overthink things and my perfectionist side comes in and/or self doubt kicks in. I am learning to master my thoughts though. I also annoy myself when I double post because some social media sites are interconnected I also hate that I am can get anxious at times, but I appreciate all my flaws. One thing that annoys me about what other writers do is that some are judgmental or overly critical when they are not perfect themselves, but other than that I love writers they are awesome!😉

**I post chapters or excerpts when I can...soon I will release full Chapter 19: forbidden.**
