A-to-Z Blog Challenge: F is for...fiction

A word post for
the challenge today
💚💚💚
While I may not like editing so much, I love writing. Even in the midst of a hectic life of a self-employed consulting engineer, I have managed to keep up with my writing target for Camp NaNoWriMo. For many people, it is a time socialise and support each other on social media. I on the other hand like to hide in my writing cave, i.e. my home office, and work on my next book project.
This April a little romance invaded my writing cave, and as the story unfolds, I wonder how Lucy is going to take it when Craig reveals the family secret to her.
I hope she will be brave enough to handle it! A love story with a dark twist which will leave you gasping when the truth comes out.
Until Monday; when my newsletter will also pop into your mailbox. Have you signed up yet?

A-to-Z Blog Challenge: E is for...editing

A word post from
me today
🙋🙋
Editing is not my favourite activity when it comes to writing a book or blog post for publication, but I do know how important it is. For most of my writing, I use an online application, but the final say for my books is the red pen of a professional editor.
Have a look at this website to find a list of online editing applications. At least one of them would be perfect for your writing (and editing) needs.


Here are today's special mentions:
A Field Trip Life- children's stories
Merely Bookish- writing craft
M. K. Waller- writer
Why not pop over to their blogs to say hi?

Until tomorrow!

A-to-Z Blog Challenge: B is for...bloggers

The blog challenge is celebrating its 10th anniversary this month, and its success is purely based on the support and participation of the bloggers.

All kinds of blogs exist in the blogosphere, and today I am sharing only a few of the blogs of my fellow A to Z blog challenge participants. Over the course of the A to Z blog challenge, look out for some more blog links from other participants.
The Multicolored Diary - mythology and folklore
Getting to the end - lifestyle and social

A-to-Z Blog Challenge: A is for...author

Today I am celebrating my fellow authors. People who had the guts to sit down and write a book. People who sacrificed their time to plan, research, write, edit, edit some more, edit even more, publish the book, and share their words with you the readers.
Few people grasp the commitments and sacrifices that authors make to bring their stories to you. So today I say thank you to everyone who wrote a book because they brought entertainment, knowledge, and the world to you and me.
To the authors!
cheers, graphic, word, orange

April's Bibliophile - the A-to-Z Blog Challenge is here!

For the A to Z Blog challenge this April, my blog theme will be words - words from other authors, words from bloggers, books from other authors, words from a dictionary, and a word or two from me, Linzé, your host on the Broomstick.
The posts are up every day except on Sundays because on Sundays I will tell you what is happening in the week ahead. The posts will be short, but don't let that stop you from jumping into the conversation with the author. If it is a book post, why not share a link to your review? I know the author would appreciate it.
My newsletter, Grains of Sand, will make its usual appearance on the second Monday. In April's edition, there is info on a free ebook for everyone that joins up to receive the monthly grains of creative wisdom that I like to share. The voucher will be in the May newsletter.
#AtoZChallenge on the Broomstick: week 1
Here is schedule for the week ahead, and remember to sign up for my newsletter - it is concise, and will darken your inbox only once a month, I promise.
Until tomorrow!
