Ask away. Starting is always the hardest part.

Anna is right Felisha - Starting is the hardest - once you get rolling - it just flows.  Everyone is here to help you!

Felisha, don't worry about staring at the beginning, somethimes I just start and end up writing the middle or end first then the beginning, whatever works for you...

Hi everyone. I'm a novice to all this but I'm hoping to get better as I get to know everyone. I've just published my first 2 books and hoping to write a lot more in time to come.

Why is it that we often judge a book by its cover? lol, fiction writing is an amazing topic, and so I just wanted to add my lil incident from this week at work.

So this co-worker comes up to me and asks if I want to read her mom's new book that was just released in Aug. I give her a blank look, and am silently thinking in my head. Okay, if the book sucks, I'll be forced to say nice things about it for the duration of both our employment here. I'm still hesitant about it, then she says it's free. I'll give you a free copy, and you can be like one of those reviewers, and just tell me honestly what you think.

I'm still hesitant, because now I have the responsibility of actually reading it. Ugh! so I finally agree and she gives me the book; and all I can say, is OMG! never judge a book by its cover. This was an amazing book, and the author weaved this lil lycan world, that the reader just just had to be a part of.

Its a paranormal romance, yea I know peoples qualms about Twilight, but I swear its nothing like that. She took ancient myths of Sehkmet, Isis, and some lycan King named Mulkie( never heard of him so I assumed she made him up) but its kewl cuz she worked all of that into the story. The main character is a descendant of Isis, and the main wolf is a 475 year old monk. You guys should really check it out. I swear I loved it, and now I can look her in the face and say it was awesome hahaha!

Its called Teaching Between Midnight and Dawn, by Alexandria Infante

Thanks for your input Lexie, and I will add that to my to-read list (my favourite genre!)
