My Writing Process Blog Tour

Hey everyone! I was invited by Eileen Caines to take part in the My Writing Process Blog Tour, and I'm super excited to get started. You can find Eileen on Twitter and Facebook to find out more about her and her book: WILL THE REAL PRINCE CHARMING PLEASE STAND UP?

Woo hoo! Let's get this party started.

To begin…

What am I currently working on?

As most of you know, I have my supernatural YA debuting on August 25th. I'm pretty freakin' excited about it. (And a little nervous, obs). So I've been working on book two for the Gateway series. I only intended for this story to have two books in total. However, I guess we'll see how it plays out. There's so much going on for Aiden in book two, that as a pantser, I have no idea what the ending will bring. haha

How does my work differ from others of its genre?

This is a good question and I wish I had a good answer. It's really hard for me to say what makes my book and/or writing so different from others, because I am a believer that we all inspire each other in some way. And you will always find similarities in everyone's writing/books. That's just a fact. All I can say is that I think my book(s) definitely show the type of person I am. I love fun, creepy, witty stories and characters, and I think THE GATEWAY THROUGH WHICH THEY CAME demonstrates this perfectly.

How do I write what I do?

I love writing supernatural stories because I am completely fascinated with the idea. I've tried to write other things like fantasy and such, but I didn't love it as much as I do supernatural. There's just so much about it that we don't know or understand and it could go so many different ways. It's creepy to think about the possibilities.

How does your writing process work?

I don't have much of a process. I just sit down on the living room floor, computer on the coffee table, and start writing. My husband often tells me that I'm gonna mess up my back sitting the way I do, but it works for me. It's comfortable. I'm starting to notice that my biggest part of the process is announcing on Twitter what my word goals are for the day. This holds me accountable and just knowing that there are people who expect me to hit that goal, really pushes me to see it through. It works. You should try it!

Well, that's it for the blog tour. Thank you so much to Eileen and for the next three bloggers who have opted in.

You can check out their posts on their blogs next Monday, March 31st.
