November 18, 2022 by Angela Ruth Strong

In my upcoming novella collection, We Three Kings, I’m writing a contemporary story to follow two historical stories.

May 27, 2021 by Merrillee Whren

Characters are the most important element in the story for me as a writer and a reader. So getting to know my characters tops the list. Often the actually writing helps me know my characters. I know some writers interview the characters to learn about them, but that doesn’t work for me because I am […]

March 27, 2015 by Merrillee Whren

Ever since a fellow writer mentioned obscure holidays, I’ve had so much fun writing about them on different blogs.
