Promoted: From Supporting Role to Main Character

Once in a while, a supporting character steals the show. They don’t mean to, but they can’t help themselves. A dynamic personality, hysterical dialogue, or a memorable backstory can grab onto a reader and make them crave more. After receiving lots of comments from readers about one such character, I knew she had to be […]

Say What? What I Wish I’d Known As an Aspiring Author

June 24, 2021 by Teresa Tysinger

Say What? What I Wish I'd Known As an Aspiring Author
