10 Best Writing Practices that Work for D. Lieber and May Possibly, Perhaps, Could Work for You

1. Always eat breakfast.

2. When you don’t know which way to go with the story, take a shower.

3. Make the story your everyday life. For example, if I am writing a book that takes place in Canada, then I watch Canadian TV shows, movies that take place in Canada, read history books about Canada when I’m not writing, etc. I may even go to Canada for a research trip (which I did, and it was awesome.)

4. Always have noise cancelling headphones on hand, and perfect my murderous glare for when someone (*cough* husband *cough*) interrupts my writing.

5. When rereading, read aloud (and with accents if possible).

6. Need more time for thinking about where the story should go? Make tea.

7. Have an author friend (or a few) to complain to, someone who can talk you off the ledge and send you funny memes/GIFs to cheer you up.

8. Readers appreciate thoroughness. If using foreign language in your books, try to find someone who speaks that language to double check everything. Do not trust Google Translate.

9. Wanting to really capture that scenery description? Go for a walk alone. You will be amazed at what you notice about the sensory stimuli around you. Bring a notebook!

10. Take breaks. Part of being a good writer, is living your life. Your stories will only get better the more experiences you have.

First love is hard to forget, and even harder to ignore…

Evergreen Pendre wasn’t planning on going home for Yule. But when her Mom tells her the old coven is coming for a visit, she wants to see everyone. Well, almost everyone.

After four and a half years, Sawyer Collins finally has a chance to reconnect with his first love, Eeva Pendre. He might have been too shy to tell her how he felt before, but he’s changed. And he’s determined not to let her slip away this time.

As the coven prepares for Yule, they are reminded that not everyone has the holiday spirit in this contemporary Pagan holiday romance.

Enjoy an Excerpt

Sawyer looked up just as Eeva stopped short upon entering the living room. She was still in her pajamas: flannel plaid pants with an oversized hoodie and fuzzy socks. Her long, brown hair was dyed a dark green, and it was still messy from sleep.

His heart throbbed in his chest, and he held his breath as he met her deep ocean blue eyes. His memories hadn’t done her justice.

“Hey,” he said lamely. “It’s uh…been a while.” He cleared his throat, his own voice sounding hoarse and uneven in his ears.

She blinked as if she’d forgotten who he was then frowned. “Yeah, I suppose that happens in life… How is…everything? I mean, I hope you and your mom are doing all right.” Her tone was distant and polite. Formal.

His stomach clenched as his raised hopes deflated. “Yeah, everything’s fine. We’re both good. And you?”

“Same.”

As the strained silence grew between them, Sawyer grasped for something to say. Anything. “So…my mom says you’re graduating soon. What are you studying?” He knew very well she was studying history. It didn’t matter that he’d said more times than he could count that he didn’t care. The moment his mother mentioned her, he’d always internalized the information. And he’d taken more than a few glances at her social media profiles over the years, though he’d gotten better about that.

“Eeva!” his mother called, entering the room before they could struggle on in their conversation.

About the Author:D. Lieber is an urban fantasy author with a wanderlust that would make a butterfly envious. When she isn’t planning her next physical adventure, she’s recklessly jumping from one fictional world to another. Her love of reading led her to earn a Bachelor’s in English from Wright State University.

Beyond her skeptic and slightly pessimistic mind, Lieber wants to believe. She has been many places—from Canada to England, France to Italy, Germany to Russia—believing that a better world comes from putting a face on “other.” She is a romantic idealist at heart, always fighting to keep her feet on the ground and her head in the clouds.

Lieber lives in Wisconsin with her husband (John) and cats (Yin and Nox).

Enjoy an Excerpt

“Power must not be allowed to triumph all the time!” Nicholas had heard these words often enough growing up from his father Louis. It wasn’t until he was watching an old gangster movie on TV that he realized his father had borrowed the phrase he often said to him. Still, for some reason he had memorized his words and now sitting in the courtroom, his father’s words tormented him. The courtroom was located in the Federal building in downtown San Jose. Nicholas sat at the defense table and his mind wondered. His eyes fell on the courtroom stenographer as she walked in. She was just what he needed to take his mind off of his situation. He marveled with his thoughts thinking her naturally caramel tanned skin was beautiful, he was sure she had acquired it at birth, no tanning booth could make such a perfect even skin tone. Her skin accented excellently against her chocolate tailored suit. He had used the courtroom stenographer to take his mind off things on several occasions. She’d become the highlight of Nicholas’ days since his trial had started. He’d heard her speak often enough and knew that she had a soft -spoken pleasant voice that was soothing to his senses.

As his plane slowly touched down, Quinn closed his eyes and prayed to the god of his grandmother Ina Rosolado. He wasn’t praying that the plane would land safely. He was praying that his brother Nicholas would receive him with open arms. He was worried because he didn’t know how much his brother knew about the brief yet extended affair he’d had with his on again off again ex-fiancé and girlfriend Maëlle Moulard. It wasn’t something that he was proud of. In fact, he wanted to confess his sins to his brother, but he’d never had the chance. There just never seemed to be the right time when they were growing up together.

Claimed by the Alphas by Jayce Carter
Publisher: Totally Entwined
Genre: Contemporary, Erotic Romance
Rating: 4 stars
Reviewed by Moonflower

It takes all thee alphas to train this naïve omega.

Ashley has spent the past six years trying to outrun a man who has torn her life apart over and over. Just as her stalker is nipping at her heels yet again, three alphas come out of nowhere to save her. Ashley wants nothing more than to trust the strangers, but she’s been betrayed far too many times before.

After a traumatic childhood, Torrin, Erik and Liam decided they’d rather be in charge of things, even if it meant turning into the bad guys. Determined to never be helpless again, they’ve done whatever was needed to gain power. When they find Ashley, a sweet and naïve omega who needs their help, the only way they can have her is if she never finds out the truth about who they really are.

As Ashley’s stalker draws nearer, the four of them realize their foe is more dangerous than any of them could have imagined. When their secrets come to light, when the enemy finally finds them, can they rely on one another to survive, or will mistrust and betrayal destroy everything they’ve ever wanted?

What happens if you have spent six years of your life running away from someone who wants to own you? Ashley could tell you. She has done just that and has ended up at the bottom of the heap, always on the run, never anything permanent. Chance gives her a helping hand when Erik, Liam, and Torrin are on hand to prevent her getting hurt. It goes one stage further when the alphas can’t seem to forget about her!

This story was a great addition to this world and we also get cameos from previous characters too. There is one train wreck that you know will happen, the alphas know will happen, and even Ashley fears will happen. Kara warns them about it but nope, the alphas stick their heads in the sand and do what they think is best to the detriment of all.

This is definitely a case of opposites attracting as Ashley is nothing like the alphas but everything they needed. They have a high-steam, intense relationship but that doesn’t detract from the overall story arc.

The pacing is smooth and the world-building gives you more where the other books have stopped, giving you a sense of continuation. Although this is the seventh book in the series, I do feel you can read it as a standalone without any difficulties.

A great read that I can absolutely recommend.

Then there are the characters in black who have an urge to sacrifice a few folk and a hungry deep sea beastie with long nasty tentacles.

Good thing someone stuffed a kitten in Randy’s pocket. Just another typical day outside the office, complete with wayward women and a missing beach.

Randy knew something was up when his half-banshee secretary, Bertha, whirled into the office – over an hour late – grabbed some spare cash then left without any explanation. Randy knows Bertha is usually completely calm and collected, but he’s not initially worried. When Bertha contacts him and beg for help he’s drawn into his most bizarre case yet.

While this is part of a series I haven’t read any of the previous installments and can happily say this book truly stands well alone. I adored catching all the puns and various mangled references (a cat called Schrodinger, for example) and this coupled with the hard-boiled edge of Randy’s voice mingled really well so the story didn’t feel too noir or edgy, but also not just a light and fluffy comedy story either. I thought the author did an amazing job balancing these two and I found myself both deeply embroiled in the mystery aspect to the plot while laughing at the references I caught and enjoying the lighter tone equally well.

Readers looking for a humorous mystery that doesn’t take itself too seriously but still has a solid plot, a wealth of interesting and varied magical characters and an astonishingly well-detailed world should find this story a delight. The pace moves quickly at times and I found myself needing to go back and read more carefully in a few places as the author manages to put a number of clever references and witty ripostes in a very short space of words. It’s easy to overlook small details like this and I’m certain this book will only grow deeper and more complicated in a wonderful way upon further re-reads. This is exactly the sort of book where even on the third or fourth re-read you can catch extra hints, tips and clues and be delighted all over again at the cleverness of the author and characters.

If you are of dating age or married, I wrote this book for you.

This is not a self-help or a how-to book. This is the story of the metamorphosis of a timid, fear filled child who finally blossomed into a warrior. I have many scars that no one can see, but they are healed now. Through these battles to become a warrior, I have helped the wounded souls that have come to me and seen them overcome their demons to stand tall and proud of who they are. It has brought me great joy.

Through the years, I have heard along the way that the ancient Chinese would fix their broken china cups or figurines with gold to make them whole again, and more valuable. I believe that humans can be repaired with love and a sense of self-worth. Each and every one of us are here for a purpose and we are given gifts to help fulfill our purpose.

I would love for you to come on this journey with me.

Enjoy an Exclusive Excerpt

When we met the next week, we all laughed at the response we got from our families. That did a lot to break the ice. I brought a circle-of-friends candle holder with me. It had been broken, the heads snapped off, but I’d glued it back together and I said that it reminded me of our group. We continued our session with Mandy leading us in a meditation. We were to clear our minds of all the internal voices in our heads so we could have a clear mind when we talked with each other. It took us about two months to warm up to each other and trust the group enough to share our deepest, darkest feelings that we carried around with us. There was a sacred trust amongst us that anything we said stayed there and was never to leave the room.

It was several months in when one of the girls said to me something that I will never forget: “Donna, you are being held hostage by your mother. She is a narcissist.”

She then explained to us what a narcissist was.

I was not losing my mind. I was not coming apart. Maybe I could be free from her terror and begin to have my own life, make my own decisions. I knew it was going to be an uphill battle to free myself from her chains. But I now had a name for the demon—narcissism—and, by God, I was going to fight. I can never thank this woman enough for seeing what was strangling me.

Why hadn’t any of the doctors, psychiatrists, psychologists or counsellors I’d had before clued into this?

About the Author: Donna G. Bourgeois enjoys writing and painting, both excellent activities to soothe the soul. She went to university at 65-years-old and earned an associate degree in theology, just to keep the grey matter healthy. She considers her greatest quality to be the ability to love greatly and be kind to those who life have put on her path. Life with Ollie is her first book, although she has many more story ideas waiting in the wings. She believes if you listen to your inner voice, you will find your bliss.

Ricardo strolled towards me, thanking me for coming. He grabbed my hand and paraded me around, introducing me to his other Eastview friends, Rashad and Victoria. Victoria was Mitchell’s girlfriend, who dressed like a tomboy. A little more and her pants would’ve been hugging her knees; she also wore big hoop earrings that could’ve been a bracelet for an infant.

Rashad seemed timid, hesitating to open his mouth; he was on the basketball team with Mitchell and Ricardo. I must admit that Eastview had some fine black boys that attended their school, but their style of fashion was different from the kids at Chester.

“Hey everybody, this is my friend, Sasha. She’s joining us to help protest for Mitchell.”

“Does she even know Mitchell?” one guy shooting pool said.

“It doesn’t matter,” said Ricardo. “She is here to help, and it’s good that we can get people from other schools to help us.”

The dude sucked in through his teeth and kept shooting pool.

Ignoring Ricardo, Victoria narrowed her eyes. “So, how do you know Mitchell again?”

“I don’t know him. I’m just here to help.”

After I told her that me and Ricardo played together as childhood friends, her face became at ease and she started smiling. I told her I went to Chester Academy.

“You go to that rich school. You wouldn’t know about anything that happens to the black boys in public school,” she said.

Hopefully she can learn fast enough not to start a war, destroy their whole belief system, and learn to date a pair of centaurs, because it looks like there is no returning home.

Kiara was enjoying her parachuting course in Cambodia – right up until the moment some unusually high winds had her instructor bailing out on her, literally, cutting the cord tethering them together and leaving Kiara to fend for herself as she tried to navigate her descent down a mountain and back onto green, safe, firm land. When Kiara lands in a tree, for a moment she’s beyond grateful simply to be alive. An accident has Kiara not only warmly embraced into a clan of Centaur’s, but hailed as their savior and Goddess. When Zeethan and Xaylu are given to Kiara can the three of them make this new arrangement work?

I really enjoyed this sexy short story. While the concept of the story was pretty out there – Kiara parachuting into a group of Centaur’s and staying amongst them as a goddess – I soon realised that both the characters and the blossoming threesome romance between Kiara, Zeethan and Xaylu was both relatable and interesting. I loved the fresh take on this paranormal romance and while a fair bit of my brain needed to be disconnected to suspend my disbelief, the story and enjoyment I got from this made it well worth it.

I was particularly pleased that Zeethan and Xaylu already had a well established, seemingly long-term committed relationship before Kiara came along. This helped me find the speed with which the threesome formed feel a lot more believable and I could also understand why since the basis of the relationship was already solid and well-proved adding Kiara into the mix didn’t rock the boat too much. I laughed a bit at how Kiara managed to integrate with the other female Centaurs – never in a million years would I have guessed that aspect to the plot so I found it not only humorous, but also incredibly unique and interesting.

With an interesting plot and some relatable and cool paranormal characters this was a fun and fresh story that I really enjoyed.

After her brother’s mysterious demise, Steff Robert Smith collects herself and decides to know what’s hidden from her. As she gets obsessed with the payback, she is exposed to secrets and betrayals, the ones that were always in front of her eyes. The deceit was in the light, yet was shaded. The fight is not just against bad ones but also with time and her destiny. On the journey to get her revenge, loved ones come and go and she is left broken each time.

In a very healthy private, cipla cialis glucose is normally slow along with insufficient. The Deary, Steff’s Diary, knows everything… Even the secrets that she conceals in her heart.

A little curiosity goes a long way, especially when it comes to a mysterious death.

Steff was an assertive individual, and that was one personality trait that was sorely needed in this mystery. This was the sort of adventure that required anyone participating in it to have a strong sense of what they were seeking and how far they were willing to go to reach their goals. She definitely had the right personality for that!

I had trouble getting into this story due to how non-descriptive it was. When characters were introduced, I had few to no details of what they looked or sounded like even when they were the protagonist or someone close to that role. This same problem extended to the settings, themes, and conflicts. I’d struggle to explain what many of them felt like or how they might have changed over time because of how little information I had about them to begin with.

The plot twists were well done, especially in the last dozen pages when the pacing picked up and Steff was dealing with multiple conflicts at once. These scenes raised the stakes of her mission and made me wonder what her fate would ultimately be. The author took a few risks with the ending that were a little out of the ordinary for the mystery genre, but they paid off wonderfully. I’m glad she was willing to stretch the boundaries of this genre like that.

The Deary: Betrayal in the Shade of Light should be read by anyone who enjoys action-filled mysteries.

My Writing Space

My writing space is usually my bed. Whether it’s the first draft I’m doing longhand in a notebook, the latest edition I’m working on in Word, or the printout in the green binder I’m reading through and making editing notes on, I’m usually curled up on my bed, though sometimes I pick the sofa instead. I need the space so I can lay out all my notes and reference materials, and I’ve never been able to study or be creative at a desk. Pay bills, create purchase orders, etc in my long ago life as an administrative assistant – yes. Write – no.

Angela Grimalke appears more blonde bombshell than the gremlin she is. But there is no denying her supernatural truth after her clumsiness gets her fired from her modeling career. Forced to work for her family’s upscale airline, she spends her days slinging luggage and wishing her parents would get off her back about finding a nice gremlin guy to settle down with.

Relationships were the last thing on her mind, not that her family would accept that.

For Dave Ford his frequent business travel made it next to impossible for him to find a woman who could tolerate his chaotic schedule. Which is why he appreciates Angela. Neither of them are looking for love, but Dave feeds Angela’s addiction for chocolate while she provides him with the chaos to keep him on his toes.

However, as Angela’s parents bombard her with a parade of “eligible” gremlin men at their weekly family dinners, she finds herself torn between who she longs to be and her family’s expectations. Will she give in and live the life of magic they want for her? Or risk it all by to confessing to Dave that she isn’t human?

Enjoy an Excerpt

Focusing on the sparks of energy skittering along her fingers, she sent her magic into the printer. Angela might look like the cover model she’d once been but no one would guess that Windsor’s check-in counter was currently staffed by a pair of gremlins. Dave’s day—or rather night and morning—were about to become a little more exciting than he’d imagined. Dave would have a nice, relaxing flight to London while his garment bag went to Cleveland.

She tamped down the tendrils of guilt rising in her gut. It needed to be done. It was this bag or some mishap not of her choosing. Besides, who in their right mind would check a Louis Vuitton garment bag? First class contained specially built closets in which to hang them. She searched Dave’s thoughts again.

Where have I seen her before?

Angela snapped right back out and jerked her head down. She attached the claim sticker to his boarding pass and handed it to Dave, keeping her focus on the counter.
