Hunter's Heritage: Chapters 22 and 23!

I've been pretty inconsistent with posting chapters the last few weeks and I totally forgot to post these two last weekend cuz it was my birthday. So here are chapters 22 and 23! The story is starting to wrap up and climb toward the climax so I'm pretty excited to share the ending! It's one I looked forward to since writing book 1.

Here's a little excerpt from chapter 23:


Once Tabitha had filled the others in on what happened, had showered and changed they all went out to scour the city. She wouldn’t rest until she found Sebastian. It wasn’t safe for him or anyone else for him to be roaming around the city in his condition. For once she wished New Orleans wasn’t so big. The city and the hustle and bustle made it nearly impossible to find anyone. They searched high and low, every corner, every street, or at least all the ones they could cover before nightfall. Once the sun began to set Tabitha leaned against a nearby wall on a random street corner, running a hand through her hair. What if she couldn’t find him? What if he had left for her own good? No doubt he was beating himself up over having bitten her. She knew Sebastian would never do that on purpose, not in his right mind. But that didn’t mean he didn’t feel guilty for it. Frowning at the memory, she rubbed her hand over the spot where he had bitten into her.
There was still so much to do. The clock was ticking and if Emmeline had been at that club last night then she knew about Emilio. She had no doubt Emilio would have told Emmeline where to find Thomas Sterling’s grave for the right price and with Alistair backing Emmeline, they could pay any price he asked for. Which meant she didn’t have time to go hunting down Sebastian. Her heart wanted to do so badly. She wanted to search for him day and night, no rest, no food. Just look for him until she found him and could help him. He was out there somewhere, alone and scared and hungry and probably in pain. Not to mention he wasn’t safe with Emmeline roaming around the city. But… she had to find Thomas’s grave. She had to get there before Emmeline did, even if it meant putting Sebastian in the backseat.

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

How to Write a Negative Character Arc

Anyone else love reading a train wreck? I find negative character arcs refreshing and fun to read and watch because not a lot of people do them. Like I'm a sucker for a redemption arc. I love characters that start out horrible and bad and "irredeemable" and then slowly redeem themselves and become the good guy. But from time to time I just love watching a good character go bad. Call me evil but I hope I'm not the only one who enjoys this. I've actually wanted to write this post for a while after rewatching Merlin last year and then over the past month me and a friend were rewatching Star Wars and I've always enjoyed the prequels because of Anakin's downward spiral. Also the last season of The 100, you watch as Octavia completes her journey to becoming one of the meanest, worst antagonists in the show. And that's saying something. The other day I really thought about what other characters who have negative arcs there are but I honestly couldn't th

Friday in Review: May Monthly Wrap-Up

Happy Wednesday once more everyone! I hope you've all had a great May. May has been full of lots of life stuff and writerly stuff and reading. I am so excited to share it with you all (along with an awesome new thing I'm doing for next month on here)! May Writing: May was full of lots of writing... Like lots. I finished draft four of The Lost Ones, came up with the name The Lost Ones and finished editing draft five. Now comes the hard work of plugging in all those changes and edits into my Word doc. Oh the joys of writing... ;) But for real, I am so excited that I finished the read through for TLO and I am even more excited to finish this draft so I can get it ready for betas. This month I also planned out the series... I've never planned out a series ever. I'm a pantser so what do I do? I make life hard for myself by winging not only my novels but entire series too. That whole not planning thing? It didn't work for me and since I'm wanting to take myself m
