Throwback Thursday #17: Top Five Favorite Feel-Good Scenes

0

It’s Sweet September! For my first retrospective blog of the month, I’m reflecting on a few of my favorite feel-good scenes. These are the light, fluffy scenes that give you a much-needed break from the tragedy and turmoil in my stories. For me, these scenes tend to be a bit more forgettable than my heavy, dramatic scenes, but they always make me smile when I reread and remember them, so I’m taking this opportunity to show them some love. Without further ado, here are my top five sweet scenes!

Throwback Thursday #16: Top Five Favorite Fanfictional Howie Roles

4

I’m back with the next installment of my twenty-fifth anniversary blogs, and in honor of Howie’s birthday tomorrow, I’m looking back on my five favorite fanfictional Howies! To be honest, Howie has never been one of my favorite Backstreet Boys to write about. I love him, but I also find him kind of… dare I say boring? But, over the years, I’ve learned that when I add some “flavor” to spice things up a bit, he can become an interesting character. Here are my favorite versions of Howie I’ve written.

Throwback Thursday #15: Top Five Favorite Action Scenes

0

Welcome to Action August! I find action scenes to be some of the most challenging scenes to write because I have to include enough description to allow readers to visualize what’s happening in their heads without overloading them with details that slow down the fast pace. That means I can’t be too wordy, which is a challenge in itself at times for me. So when I do manage to find that perfect balance and construct a well-paced, cinematic, action-packed scene, I feel proud of myself. That’s why, this week, I’m counting down my five favorite action scenes!

Throwback Thursday #14: Top Five Favorite Comedic Fics

3

With just one week left in July, we’re wrapping up the month with jokes! This week, I’m blogging about my favorite humor stories. Comedy may not the genre I’m best known for writing, but I do enjoy occasionally taking a break from the drama to write something light and funny! With that being said, I do have a rather twisted, morbid sense of humor, so even my comedies tend to be a little dark. Here are my top five favorite comedic fics!

TWWBW Update!

Sorry I seem to be on the once-a-month story update plan, but that’s just how it’s been going lately.  This has admittedly not been my most productive summer, from a writing standpoint, although my streak is still going strong at 1,276 days in a row!  I actually had my best day of writing all summer yesterday, which is why I didn’t update on a Saturday like I usually do.  I didn’t want to tear myself away from the chapter I was working on to edit the one I’m posting today.

With that being said, Chapter 74 of The World Will Be Waiting is up!  This is a short and sweet chapter that was originally going to be a lot longer, until I ended up separating it into two chapters when the second half got way too long.  I finished 75 last night and started 76 this morning, so I’m still plugging away.  But now that July is winding down, I’m gonna get busy again in the next few weeks, so I may have to stay on the once-a-month update plan for the foreseeable future.  As always, feedback is motivating and much appreciated, so thank you to everyone who has or will let me know they’re still reading, either here or on AO3 or social media.  I hope you enjoy the new chapter!
