Because of her size, Mia was trained to pressure-point fight.

Here's a scene from my MS. I edited an "angry" out and I like it much better. Thanks for the tip!

This quote has always inspired me:

What does your protagonist think it is? Mia thinks the storm blew out the candles and lights.
What is it actually? A stranger cut the lights.
How will its arrival change your character’s next decision? It will make her decide to stay or flee.

My villain was so helpful and actually pitched my book once upon a time.

Mia trades golden luxury for a soldier's stripes to find a coup she is falsely connected to before perpetrators assassinate Earth's Prime Minister and unleash global war, displacing her from her former life and the boy she loves forever.

I'm excited to read The Philosophy of Thieves in September: "Leverage meets Parasite meets Six of Crows in multi-award winning author Fran Wilde’s thrilling, high-tech adventure heist wrapped in a gaslamp fantasy where thieves are entertainment for the wealthy." #RevPitwaiting #hopefulcomp

I often write in stolen moments, so I currently have no designated writing space. But, here are preferred spots over the years. Not shown: the car at stoplights, my bedroom, beside my son's bed when he's not sleeping well, etc.

Let's play "explain your book poorly." 😅
eg:
Underworld - A woman bites her enemy to avenge her family.
LOTR - group spends months delivering jewelry.

A tabulator's job is never easy, but when you're in charge of a spy, it's downright diabolical.

"My asset went missing, Prime Minister."
"Again?"
"I filed a report and instituted mandatory overwatch. Here's the brief."
"Find her."

As an avid book signing attendee, authors shine or fade for me by how they interact with fans. Pierce Brown (author of the Red Rising series) shines. And his books are awesome. Win win. I have lots of favorite authors but he tops the list.

Launch into a dangerous military academy where a cunning highflier must battle murderous peers and outsmart an army set against her.

This time she must rise or die.
