Hey all, Sam here. Did I switch up my review schedule last minute so I could write up this review? Yes, I did. And I did it because today is author Bree Moore's birthday, so why not celebrate it with a review of one of her stories? I actually read three books by Bree in… Continue reading Novella Review: Thief of Lies by Bree Moore

Hey all, Sam here. I completely messed up the order my posts were supposed to be posted this weekend. I was supposed to do the first chapter of No Plot? No Problem! today.

Weekend Writer: No Plot? No Problem! A Low-Stress, High-Velocity Guide to Writing a Novel in 30 Days by Chris Baty – Chapter One
Hey all, Sam here. Even with taking out the chapter's title from this post's title, it still feels like a long title. I guess that's what happens when the book has a long title and so do some of the chapters. That's okay though. Anyway, hello, and welcome back to Weekend Writer. NaNoWriMo is coming.… Continue reading Weekend Writer: No Plot? No Problem! A Low-Stress, High-Velocity Guide to Writing a Novel in 30 Days by Chris Baty – Chapter One

Weekend Writer: September Prompts
Hey all, Sam here. It's Friday again, and honestly there's a lot going on right now...and sadly a lot of it is stuff I'm not talking about in my weekly wrap-ups because it involves shows I'm watching, and I'm not talking about those until the WGA/SAG-AFTRA strike has concluded. So I guess I'll just say… Continue reading Weekend Writer: September Prompts
WIP Wednesday – Aug 23
Hey all, Sam and David back again today. Sorry for the wonky posting schedule the past week or so.

Anyway,… Continue reading WIP Wednesday – Aug 23
