#WritersCoffeeClub 1. What makes your WIP stand out from the crowd? Don't be shy? Taking into account what people who read the book said, I'd say: - The way I portray the Greek gods, especially Aphrodite - I mean, where else have you seen Aphrodite causing an apocalypse?! 😎 - The violent […]
#WordWeavers 30. What do your characters do when feeling playful? Do they have games? Fighting is Briaca's favourite pastime, so she'll try to lure someone into sparring with her (most already learned that it's a bad idea, because the friendly duel is bound to get a little bit violent once […]
#WritersCoffeeClub 30. What have you achieved in your writing this month? Or were you too busy eating cake? I did eat quite a few slices of cake since there were a bunch of birthdays in my family! But I did progress a little in my writing, too. Finished a chapter in Book 2 of World Without […]
#WritersCoffeeClub 29. Tell us about a writer's block you worked through. How did you pull it off? One kind of writer's block can be solved with research. When I'm stuck on a story point, it's usually because I don't understand something as well as I should, be it the main character or a […]

#WordWeavers 28. What would the perfect book launch party be for your WIP? In true Priestess of Aphrodite fashion, it would have barrels of wine, dances, some bloodshed (it's good for the heart), an all-night long org—wait, what was the question again? 😶
#WritersCoffeeClub 28. When beginning a story, which do you have a clearer idea of first, the characters or the plot? Both? Usually, characters. I often have the basics of a plot very earlier on, too, but my mind fleshes out the characters first. They are, for me, the heart and soul of a story […]
#WritersCoffeeClub 27: What's the elevator pitch for your current WIP? A chance and deadly encounter join a devotee of Hera and a Heretic against rebel followers of Ares playing with magic that can kill even immortals. Yeah, I just made that up lol Doesn't sound too bad, though... I think... xD
#WritersCoffeeClub 26. Did you come to writing from an avenue other than reading? (e.g. film/TV, oral storytelling, music, art, etc.) I always liked to read (though I used to read much less than I do now, and the books were somewhat different), but I only decided to pursue writing as a career […]
