Authenticity in Writing

On By dotluvs2writeIn Fiction Writing, Inspirational, Life, Writing TechniquesLeave a comment

Although all of us authors/writers must do some research in writing our stories when we do not know enough about a certain subject matter, the value of critiques from various other writers is that you learn vital information you may have missed.

You are always learning something new, and with that crucial information provided by your critiques, your story becomes more authentic, which is what we always want for our fiction works.

I gained knowledge in a particular subject this morning to help make one of my character’s hobbies more realistic and believable.

Fellow writers, I hope you are able to connect with critique partners to help strengthen your stories.

Thank God for critiques/feedback!

A Small Book Signing Presentation

On By dotluvs2writeIn Fiction Writing, Inspirational, News Events, Writing Techniques1 Comment

I had a small book signing for my debut novel, Passage of Promise, today after church. My table was set up next to the three tables for parishioners in the parking lot of the church for our coffee hour that follows liturgy.

Many of my fellow parishioners have already bought my book, I found out a little while ago. 🙂 But there are some people who haven’t. 😁

I will be doing another book signing presentation in the coming months at my church.

Here’s a picture taken this morning at my table. 🙂

It’s tough being able to do these events during this period of the pandemic, but I do them when and where I’m able.

I hope this inspires my fellow writers to work out some outside event for her/his published book(s) at this time. 🙂
