The Dressmaker’s Secret Events – Everything You Might Have Missed

The Dressmaker’s Secret is now out into the world. You can purchase it on Amazon and review it on Amazon and … yeah, no, that’s about it. You can buy a signed paperback copy, too, if that’s your thing. 😉 But let’s not delay. Let’s wrapup what’s been up! First, let’s check out all the […]

Introducing the Characters of The Dressmaker’s Secret

Hi there, readers! So I’ve never been one to talk over someone, and I think characters have a right to a voice, too. So instead of introducing my characters … I’m going to let them introduce themselves! That’s right – today, Claire and Alice will be writing this post (as their TDS selves!), talking about […]

How to Turn Your Plot Points into Scenes {yes, another outlining post}

I was going to let outlining rest now and post about something else, but a question a friend commented kept niggling at the back of my head. And I just couldn’t let it go. In an article a few weeks ago, I discussed my current, complicated outlining method, but I totally neglected to give tips […]

I’m Back {A Bunch of Updates}

Well. I’m back! And now it’s time for me to tell you about all the stuff I’ve been doing in the last month, etc. So if you’re not a fan of rambly updates, be gone. (I’m just kidding; stick around, anyway. I’ll try to make this not-rambly. Though it’s painful, you know. Like ripping apart […]
