5 Things Historical Heroines Need to STOP Doing
Hi there, everyone! This post is sort of a follow up to one I did a while back, “Excuse Me, You Got Some Feminism in My Regency Romance.“ These are just some general observations about the heroines of all historical fiction – though, again, pre-1900 is when most of this takes place. BUT … this […]
At Her Fingertips, Blog Tour: Day 4
[[Well. She shouldn’t have made her password so obvious.]] [[Shhhhh, we don’t want them to know!]] [[I’m not telling them! I’m introducing us. Hello, all! I’m Alice Knight, the main character of Kellyn’s latest book, At Her Fingertips. I wanted her to rewrite it slightly with *coughs* less complications, but it appears that isn’t going […]
Introducing the Characters of Beyond Her Calling
Hello ladies and gents! Now that we’ve actually begun NaNoWriMo,* I decided it was time to actually introduce you to my NaNo novel & my NaNo-prep process.

September 2017 Spotlight: My Obsession with Personality Types
Like many before me (and many who shall come after), I love classifying myself and others by the MBTI personality types.

October Character Studies ~ Costumes
First: OH MY GOSH!!! She liked my idea. Is the world collapsing on you or is it just me?!?!?! Wait a minute … why would the world be collapsing if I actually thought up something good that someone liked for once instead of a bunch of mindless blither-blather? Well … I don’t know. Maybe because everything’s been kind […]

Feeling vs. Thinking in Writing
I know, I know! A Step-by-Step Guide to Publishing with Createspace for Intelligent People (Part 2) was supposed to be posted today. But … too lazy and too enthused about this new idea (which, disclaimer, I got from the book Writing With Power by Peter Elbow. I’ve only read the first chapter, but I’m smart enough to […]
On Sprinters, Elections, and NaNo
First, I just want to say I’m amazed by the amount of support I got when publishing The Lady of the Vineyard. Thank you all a million times! I hope I’ll be there for you in the same way if you ever publish (or when you do again). Okay now … let’s do ’em in […]

The Lady of the Vineyard Blog Tour, Day 4
Wow … I can’t believe we’re already at day 4! Only one day to go! Well, I’ve got some sad news. This is our smallest day due to some problems people (including me!) had that made us have to do some re-scheduling! Oh, well. I deserve it for totally forgetting about 9/11.
