RT Book Reviews warned readers of Michele Summers' new release   Sweet Southern Trouble  to "Get ready to laugh and swoon your way through this sassy and sexy southern romance!" We couldn't agree more, so we asked Michele to share some of her tips for creating such wonderful books.  Top Writing Tips for Hopeful Authors Write : can’t say it any plainer than that, but you need to write if you ever hope to finish a book and have it published. And this does not include Facebook posts or Tweets, but actually writing complete scenes that eventually become complete chapters. Easier said than done, I know, but you gotta suck it up, baby. There’s no way around it. Tell your story : the one only you can tell in your voice. There may be better writers or more clever writers, but none of that matters because they aren’t you. They don’t know your story. Only you can write the story in your head and make it yours. Let it go : eventu...

Yesterday saw the publication of Mary Wine's second Highland Weddings book, Highland Vixen. We're excited to share an excerpt from the book to celebrate! EXCERPT She was not afraid of him. At least, Helen had told herself so a hundred times over, and had even made certain to tell Marcus MacPherson the same when he was glowering down at her. Yet, the truth was, she was running from him, and that bit of truth left her cheeks warm from temper. She snorted, finally pleased with some part of her circumstances. Standing in the rain, looking out over a deserted moor, she needed any way to warm herself, even being disgruntled. Her fingers were frozen, and beggars couldn’t be choosers, after all. “Having second thoughts, Helen?” Helen turned to look at Brenda Grant. “No, simply enjoying a view that does no’ include MacPherson Castle.” “Ye were there a long time.” Brenda spoke softly, her tone hinting that she wasn’t convinced by Helen’s answer. “Long enough to...

Tamara Mataya here. I grew up in a very small, rural community. Okay, that's not true. I actually grew up on a farm and had to travel to *get to* a very small, rural community. And then take a bus from there to get to my school. My elementary school was very small and, sadly, the library was tiny. But we had this amazing thing called The Bookmobile! The Bookmobile was basically a huge RV that had been lined with shelves, and filled with books. It would show up every couple weeks and BLOW OUR MINDS. Crammed full of books we hadn't read yet, it was a magical place for a voracious reader like me who had basically rampaged my way through the shelves at school and NEEDED MORE THINGS TO READ. I thought that Bookmobile driver was a hero. Honestly, I’m pretty sure we all thought that the driver owned all the books and was letting us borrow them from his private shelves. We didn’t question why an adult had so many children’s books; we were too b...
