S.L. Vaden If you want to be a writer, then write, don't stop, even if it comes out a few words at s time. Believe in yourself and your work. And in time others will follow.
S.L. Vaden I know my answer probably doesn't count but, Sten and Pyrus are one of my favorite couples. They are from my own book and show up a lot in the second of the series. The reason they are a favorite is because they push past what others expect from them and they don't care what the world thinks. As long as they have each other, that's all that matters in their world.
I would say more of another couple but I don't want to spoil things for those who haven't read my book.
S.L. Vaden When I have writers block I write notes down for how I want the story to end or a future point to get to. Than think on how I want to story to move towards that main point. Listen to music that inspires you while thinking of your book also helps me.
