As an author, I might be an exception to some rule(s). I don't have a deadline. I prefer to self-edit as I go. I take breaks – and sometimes they're way too long. There's a reason for that in some cases and not one I can figure out in others. I break the writing rules as far as the trendy suggestions to eliminate adverbs, italics, dialogue tags, and miscellaneous other directives. I write what I want to read and how I want the story to read.
So far, I write standalone novels, all contemporary – except my first book took place "Sometime in the 80s."
All but one of my novels are love stories heavy on the romance. The solitary mystery is Race available in both print and for e-books.
That's where my writing mind is wandering this Wednesday . . .
Father, thank you is so small in regard to all you've done for me. Thank you for my books, the stories you've given me. Apart from you, I can do nothing. In the Name of Jesus, Amen.
