I’d never heard the term Coconut Effect before. I’ve now spent far too much time reading up on it.

Fascinating read.

Found me through my fantasy serial Delve? You might also enjoy my sci-fi series.

Packed with action and adventure—fast-paced, full of twists, and as wild as you'd expect from me.

Think popcorn movie, but in book form!

I feel like I should just post random links without explaining what’s in them.

That seems to be the current social media model.

Saw a lot of gatekeeping today.

“Only read good books.”
“It’s popular but the prose sucks, skip it.”
“You must read X, Y, or Z to be a real author or book lover.”

How about:
Read & write what makes you happy.

Love what you love. Enough with the gatekeeping.

“You are Ava.” His voice burned, raw. “I heard… saw you in the tower.”

“I do not know this tower.” Her voice cold.

“Lies. Show yourself, why play games?” Winds swirled across the cell. Kru pushed to a corner, fear rippling his skin.

“I do not lie.” Softer this time.

“Tell me! Tell the truth!”

Got about a half hour today for some revisions. Maybe more tonight, we'll see.

Until then... ready... set... GO!

When I write my first rough drafts, I rarely include detailed character descriptions. I focus on fine-tuning them during revisions.

It also has the added benefit of helping to boost the word count. 😁From 265 to 640.
