Romance in a Tea Cup - Reading Serialized Fiction

As a writer of romantic fiction, one of the most often comments I hear is that people don't have time to read a book. But, the innovative person that I am, I've found a way around that somewhat overused excuse.

I'm sharing my stories in small episodes so that everyone can enjoy reading, no matter how busy they are.

Think of it as a bit of nostalgia. A throwback to when novels were published in newspapers and magazines in serialized segments, daily or once a week. Now you can have the same reading convenience.

Look for my first fiction post of YOU OWE ME soon... I'll be posting 3 or more episodes weekly until we reach THE END!

To make it easy for you to find, all episodes will be posted under the category label, SERIAL FICTION - YOU OWE ME. You'll find those labels listed in the right sidebar.

How I Design a Slow Stitch Fiber Art Project

Step one is to sketch a rough draft of the design you want to create for slow stitching. Step two is to cut and place fabric and fibers where you want them in your design. Step 3 is to start layering up individual areas of the design until you achieve the look you want. The next step is to remove each piece as you want to sew it onto your background fabric, leaving the designed piece intact until you're ready to sew them. If the piece is very intricate, take a photo before starting to sew just in case you need to refer to it later. This is the method I use when designing my slow-stitch pieces. It's easy and works beautifully. This method leaves plenty of room for adding or modifying the design as you go along. Consider it a draft that you can embellish or improve as you work.

Book Review - CODING HOUR by Cliff Robison

Rating: 👍👍👍👍👍 + Amazon Buy Link CODING HOUR by Cliff Robison is one of the best mystery/suspense novels I've read in several years. I'm not going to disclose the plot but I will tell you that it's addicting. The author had me hooked on the first three pages, and that's hard to do. I had so many questions swirling in my head that screamed for answers, and wouldn't you know it, a family crisis came up and I had to quit reading. It was several days before I got back to the story, but curiosity about the story gave me no rest during that interval. I can't praise Cliff Robison enough for fashioning a story that is thrilling, tense, and totally satisfying without the counterfeit writing maneuvers of excessive sex, gore, and filthy words. Now that takes some writing skills! I loved the intellectual level he sustained throughout, the use of technology, secret society codes, and many other super interesting plot elements. This author makes you think as you read....

But in this case clueless is priceless because you don’t have any expectations or deadlines to meet. And there is no editor in the wings wearing a literar...
