Outlining + Beats = Story Formulation

October 1, 2017October 1, 2017Leave a comment

Earlier this week the wonderful Ilona Andrews took on a writing question about how she writes story outlines. She laid out a great method, with a lot of insight into her writing method. But for me it was not really the full answer to the question. I mean, please do not get me wrong, it … Continue reading Outlining + Beats = Story Formulation

September 17, 2017September 17, 2017Leave a comment

  Wildfire is the third book in the Hidden Legacy series by Ilona Andrews. Touted as the final book in the Hidden Legacy series, many a fan-girl have extremely high hopes pinned on a mere 400 and some pages. Can it be possible?

August: The month of Gish

September 11, 2017Leave a comment

Do you gish? Are you a Gisher? Have you shared the "Tao of Misha" with your friends only to be met with blank faces? Alas it is true. There is an entire population of people who do not know the joys of surrendering to the Gish, or the actual side effects of losing an entire … Continue reading August: The month of Gish

JULY: the month that had no words…

July 31, 2017July 30, 2017Leave a comment

Hello, my name is Chris and it has been 24 days since my last blog post... But seriously. No really... 24 days. I should mention that it has been the 28th day in a row of over 100 degrees here.

Fake it till you make it

June was a cruel month at work. I am hot and tired, and frankly I can barely type my hand hurts so much...

Last Week on This Blog, Tonight…

June 24, 2017June 24, 2017Leave a comment

I dictated this last week, in an attempt to prove that I was indeed super-human and could work 45 hour week in the 100 degree plus heat AND be all wordy.  Now I do suppose if I had used the old "Dictated not Read" premise of days gone by this post would have been on … Continue reading Last Week on This Blog, Tonight…

The Innkeeper Chronicles

June 12, 2017June 11, 2017Leave a comment

This series is a good part of the reason I look for  Friday to hurry up and come. Ilona Andrews had been treating fans  to Friday releases of segments. In many ways we watched it happen "live."  Originally sections were posted on Wattpad for consumption, soon they moved to posting it on their blog. A … Continue reading The Innkeeper Chronicles

Court of Thorns And Roses Series Review

June 5, 2017June 10, 2017Leave a comment

WELL, that was a weekend... I was supposed to be getting things done but instead had a kindle glued to my hand. I had grand plans, so very little got accomplished. As always you will find that this is a spoiler free review. If you need more, Goodreads has plenty of ways to spoil the … Continue reading Court of Thorns And Roses Series Review
