    I think Katherine is a spit ball of fire. Very energetic and full of fun withe a bit of an independent spirit;)

    Katherine had a fire fighter Father and his fire truck was No. 4. She named her cat after that:)

    Linn is a psychic love because she once had a fortune teller predict her good luck as a successful author and it came true. So now, she writes about it.

    1. Please describe your idea of Katherine. (Remember she is a Gemini and the heroine of the story. Go here, and here for help)

    -She's got two sides to her and therefore can have trouble making decisions. But she's also adaptable and creative.

    2. Where did the name Cat No. 4 come from? (This is the beloved cat of Katherine)

    Cat number 4 is named as such because it's living it's forth life.

    3. Who or what event inspired Linn’s theme of psychic love?

    The story of how Linn met her husband.

    I think Katherine might be someone who likes to tell you all the details and leave you wanting more. But I think it is just because she is so full of energy it just bubbles out of her and she may not even realize she is talking so much.

    As for Cat no. 4, she got her name because Katherine tried for so long to keep a cat around that when this cat showed up on her door step, Katherine took it as a sign it was meant for her to take care of the poor orphan.

    Linn is a psychic because her husband always wanted to know the future and so she took classes to learn how to do be a fortune teller. (Fortune Telling 101)

    Oh I sooooo wish I'd thought of attending Fortune Telling 101 classes, love it! Katherine is crazy actually, she can't help herself and that's why she needs help ... she really does need to read those forecasts and listen to what they are telling her. As for No. 4, well he's a little star, who could resist him? Enjoyed your thoughts, thank you!

Operation Agent Ink

UPDATE: PLEASE FILL OUT THIS QUESTIONNAIRE AFTER YOU SIGN UP. Have you ever wondered what agents were dying to find in their inbox/slush pile? There have been many times I entered a contest and not even received a comment, not even from one of the agents. Or maybe the agent was kind enough to leave a comment that simply said, "Sorry, this just isn't what I'm looking for, but I love the premise and your voice." I always walk away feeling unsatisfied. If I had known exactly what the agent wanted beyond, "YA" or "Fantasy" I might not have even entered a contest I knew I wouldn't win! Even more, I wasted a very busy agents time! Well, your time of guessing is up! OPERATION AGENT INK to the rescue! That's right! This workshop will help aspiring authors get on the list of an agent's WISH LIST! When the workshop is over, your manuscript will be ready to view by a group of AMAZING agents who are dying to see what you've wri...

Workshop 10

Today, let's get readers hooked from the very first sentence. If you do, you are off to a great start and hopefully a great first chapter. We are going to focus on the first and second sentence and how you can draw readers in while introducing two major items about your book: 1. Your MC 2. The main conflict. How? Is it really possible to do this in only TWO sentences? YES! Example: My name is Snow, like the white powder that falls during winter, though I don't know what my mom was thinking because it was ninety degrees the day I was born. I turned twelve the year I married a man I hated and thirteen when my first baby was born. This sentence tells us a lot. It shows us a little about Snow's personality, it hints toward a shortened childhood and could possibly point to a different time era. I also can definitely see the conflict. Can you? You only have a few minutes to make a good, first impression. Make sure you wow your reader enough they'll actually t...

EVER Blog Hop!!!!!

I joined a blog hop flash writing contest with/for Jessa Russo. It's in honor of her first EVER book release. I met Jessa during the Curiosity Quills Blog hop. I have never read a ghost story, but after reading Jessa's query and first few pages and then learning more about her ghost Frankie, I was so inspired, I fell in love -with Frankie. I was so inspired, I decided to step out of my comfort zone and write a story I had never written before and never thought I would write. Or even want to write. But I did, and I did. My piece for the contest is a small part of my bigger manuscript I wrote. I had to modify and change a few things so the story would make sense, but I think it works. At least, I hope it does:) How to vote: Comment at the end of the end of this post. You must have the word "VOTE" in your comment for it to be considered valid. VOTING IS OPEN UNTIL SEPTEMBER 30TH!!!! Ready? Well, lets go! --> The Man With the Black Hood knocked ...
