Hello Fellow Writers!
Yesterday I was feeling stuck on my plot for "Snowed in with a Millionaire" so I went through the 38 pages of plot that I had so far with my husband, who said (in not so many words) "Just add your point of hopelessness and then your happily ever after." And I'm going "oh yeah. Duh." I also worked on my new chapter for "The Movie Star's Very Personal Assistant."
Jodi Thomas, a bestselling romance author of dozens of books, wrote for years with no luck before she finally got published. This video tells how she did it.
It's all very inspiring, but I can't help but to hope I'll be like Stephanie Meyer, the author of the Twilight series, who published her very first book. I know that's not going to happen to me though for two reasons: 1. the very first book I wrote is awful and will never see the light of day and 2. the second book I wrote, while good, has an actor as the hero and I've heard that's a no-no for romance novels.
Today I will be working more on that chapter for "Movie Star" and, if time allows, my plotting for my NaNoWriMo book "Snowed In with a Millionaire."
Wish me luck and good luck to you too!
Yours truly,
Shoshanna Evers
