Sterling Silver: Chapters 6 and 7

Hey! Chapters six and seven of Sterling Silver are now on Wattpad! You should definitely check it out. ;) This book probably is my favorite book so far that I have ever wrote.
Not even Golden can compete with the pure excitement and thrill I felt while writing this. The supernatural genre full of vampires and werewolves and hunters has been my favorite genre, one that I've immersed myself in the most since I was sixteen. I know it like the back of my hand. I know the ins and outs of creating a good vampire, a good werewolf, a good romance in that genre and just good characters. There's seriously no limit to what you can do in this genre. Anything can happen. Death, drama, betrayals and this book has every one of those things in it. Really, if you've watched The Vampire Diaries, you would like this book. In the acknowledgements of The Coldest Girl in Coldtown, Holly Black called that book her love letter to every vampire novel and supernatural book she read. This book was sort of my love letter to The Vampire Diaries and I hope you love it as much as I loved writing it.

Here's a sneak peek of Chapter 7 which is in Sebastian's point of view:

They smiled at one another, three good friends in a car headed to dinner. Only... not just any dinner. But a dinner at Tabitha's house. Tabitha, who never seized to intrigue and amaze him.
She reminded him so much of her great-great-grandmother, Marcie. Marcie used to have the same fire and life in her eyes that Tabitha did. The same sort of resilience and strength that came in handy for a vampire hunter. Sebastian looked forward to kindling that flame just as he had done with Marcie. Teach Tabitha how to hone her hunter skills and become the best she could be. The best hunter this generation had ever seen. Just like Marcie.
Marcie been a gorgeous, intelligent young woman. Fiery with killer instincts. Those instincts seemed to always run in the Sterling family, although Tabitha seemed to have some of the best. The hunger for a fight, the thirst for blood, the instincts, and stamina to hunt all night and still have energy for the day ahead.The Sterlings had always amazed him, ever since he had first met them back in 1887. Their hunter instincts and strength were impressive and almost supernatural compared to other hunters he had met.
Sebastian had no doubt Tabitha would not fail to impress, much like the others of her family. Already, he could see the potential in her. She was still a little rough around the edges when it came to fighting, but Sebastian wasn't sure if she even needed his protection. If there was anything to protect against to begin with. He was betting on Alistair's curiosity and brutality to get the better of him. But if he did show up in this town, Sebastian would be ready.

Though, Marcie had always been a bit more... trusting. It had been the late 1800's when they met... Back then everyone knew everyone and trusted each other. Now in 2016, Sebastian had lived through several terrorist attacks, mass shootings. People in this time lived surrounded by death and fear.

How to Revise like a Pantser ft. Big Hero 6 Gifs

Happy Wednesday everyone! I hope you've had a great week so far and that you have a great Easter weekend ahead! We plan on going to my grandparent's on Friday to celebrate Easter with family and spending the night there so that'll be a fun time. :) Alright, so I contemplated doing an Easter-y post on here but I wasn't even sure what that would look like... So instead, I thought I'd do something fun and happy in honor of the celebration of Easter on Sunday. Without further ado, here is your Big Hero 6 gif filled revising process from a real life pantser: The end of your first draft is in sight! You type like crazy, stay up past your normal bedtime until it is finished. When you type The End, the satisfaction that you actually did this thing sets in. Guys, it is the sweetest feeling ever. Knowing you worked so hard to complete this draft and came out on the other side. Unscathed? Perhaps not. But triumphant? Definitely! That first draft is a total disast...

Best Resources for Writers

Happy Wednesday once more everyone! So recently I've been doing a lot of craft-learning and have discovered some pretty awesome resources that have been so helpful to me. I'm also contemplating trying my hand at a How To guide for writers. I've already written a How to Write a Serial book and it just needs to be touched up. I think I might make it one of my freebies for my newsletter. So then not only do you get a short story but also a how to guide cuz I realized a lot of the newsletters I sign up for come with how to guides or writerly resources. But anyways, here are some of my favorite books/podcasts/blogs that have been so, so helpful to me over the past few months: Craft Books: Go Teen Writers: Edit Your Novel by Stephanie Morril and Jill Williamson: This one has a little bit of everything in it and is perfect for beginners. If you've just started plotting your novel, are in the middle of writing it or have begun the editing process this is a must have!  ...
