Getting Rich | Karens Corner
https://karenjourdan63.wordpress.com/2014/10/03/getting-rich/comment-page-1
Vampires, ghosts, demons and murder. October 3, 2014. Let’s face it folks. The odds of any of us getting rich like a Steven King, Nora Roberts, etc. are pretty slim. So, why do we do what we do? We love it. Where else can we put our thoughts, research and stuff out there to entertain or inform? We write because we love writing, with all of it’s aggravations and challenges. Be telling your story. At least this is how I feel. Happy writing…happy reading. 3 thoughts on “ Getting Rich. I totally agree. W...

NOT BASHING…HONEST! | Karens Corner
https://karenjourdan63.wordpress.com/2015/02/27/not-bashing-honest
Vampires, ghosts, demons and murder. February 27, 2015. It’s been a few days since I blogged. I don’t like blogging unless I have something helpful to say. That being said, I’d like to put out a warning. I have a friend…her name is Tammy and she’s a fabulous writer. Her book, Whispering Promises is a great read. So, what’s my point? The powers that be claim she has not sold even one copy. We know this to be false. That’s all I’ve got to say. It’s a great life! Leave a Reply Cancel reply. You are commenti...

Vampires, ghosts, demons and murder. November 24, 2014. Ake rolled into his drive and climbed wearily from his car. Even though it was his day off, it had been a long one. Parts of it, though, had been entertaining. He was especially fond of the times he lit Jill’s fire. No shrinking violet there, he thought. He didn’t know why that pleased him. It just did, and he was too tired to think about it. Is that where you’ve been? C’mon Give up the details. His hopes died as she followed him into the room.

Vampires, ghosts, demons and murder. January 24, 2015. Writing a Great Mystery. I found this on Create Space and thought I would add it to my blog. This piece is full of excellent tips.

HOW HARD IS IT? | Karens Corner
https://karenjourdan63.wordpress.com/2014/11/20/how-hard-is-it/comment-page-1
Vampires, ghosts, demons and murder. November 20, 2014. HOW HARD IS IT? How hard can it be? You just sit and make stuff up and write it down, right? How many times have we heard that…or variations of the same? Non-writers don’t get it. Should we be angry about their lack of understanding? Well, no. It’s not their fault. Maybe the most they have ever written was that theme in grade school…so they, the non-writers, forget how difficult it was to write a theme of perhaps, 100 words or so. As for writer̵...

Vampires, ghosts, demons and murder. October 9, 2015. Why enter a writing contest one may ask. Well, it’s simple, sort of. First, there’s the hopeful feeling that just maybe the piece you entered will win and you’ll have all of those wonderful prizes. Okay, that said, let’s look at some other reasons. Writing contests will challenge you in a couple of ways. Do you have a certain number of words that must be completed in a relatively short period of time? Happy writing; Happy reading. May 20, 2015.

WRITING PROGRAMS | Karens Corner
https://karenjourdan63.wordpress.com/2015/03/05/writing-programs
Vampires, ghosts, demons and murder. March 5, 2015. I decided to take a moment and chat about writing programs. We all have our favorites. Mine happens to be yWriter5. Why? Another great thing is that in using yWriter5 you are able to break down your work into chapters and then break down the chapters into scenes. Why is that great? Another great feature is this…once you have the scene where you want it, all you have to do is highlight is and copy and paste to say a Word program. Does it add more work?

SUPPORT | Karens Corner
https://karenjourdan63.wordpress.com/2014/11/09/support/comment-page-1
Vampires, ghosts, demons and murder. November 9, 2014. No one understands a writer more than another writer. Civilians, I suppose we could call them, don’t get it. So, with all of that said…it’s important to find good writing groups. Those groups who will allow us to share not just our work, but the work of other authors/writers. Sure, we’re in competition. Competition is good. But! We’re not cutthroat people, either. So…find those groups…share your pages, and like other author’s pages. Fill in your deta...
