My Writing Process :)

My Writing Process :)


                                                                


I was tagged by the fantabulous Cassie Mae, and I'm going to tag her books at the bottom of this here post. 

Pretty straight forward here I think. Answer the questions and tag more peeps :)

My Writing Process

What am I working on?

Right now I am working on a Paranormal romance and the characters have taken over going every which way.



How does my work differ from others of its genre?

Good question.I'm and no one else can be me? Is that different enough? Life After is definitely a toned down New Adult in a genre that has a lot of sexuality in it.Life After wasn't about that so I chose not to have any love scenes in it.

Why do I write what I do?

I try and write books that I would want to read :)

How does your writing process work?

Oh gosh..Well I get an idea and write it down. Cue m & m's and computer. I sit down and start writing and go from there.I message my author friends for advice, ALOT. I rant that the story is horrible and how can anyone want to read it.I cry during edits because my baby is marked full of red and then I put on my big girl undies and git r done.Finally I release my book and go have an anxiety attack. (I'm kidding..okay sort of)

*ITS RELEASE DAY!!!* Life After By P.A Warren


HAPPY RELEASE DAY TO LIFE AFTER !!!!
Life After Blurb:
Hadley is Lost. Living is a struggle with her family gone, leaving her the lone survivor of a horrible car accident. As Hadley struggles to overcome the grief that comes with the loss of her family, she wonders if she wants to continue living. Life doesn’t feel worth living until she meets Avery. Avery…who makes her want to feel things she shouldn’t so soon after her tragic loss. Avery…who makes her want to live. With Avery’s love, will she be able to overcome the grief or will it consume her?

Excerpt:

Fall 2012
I am alone, a single soul. No longer am I a part of a family unit .The overwhelming feeling of loss is paving its way through my body. Who knew your heart could actually hurt or that you could feel so damn empty inside. I feel like brittle glass. I bet if someone touched me I would shatter into a million tiny pieces. Digging my nails into my wrist I embrace the pain my nails are causing as they sharply bite into my skin.
     My mother used to always say; Hadley, that which doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.  I personally think it’s a crock of crap. I mean what exactly does it do to make you stronger? What exactly am I supposed to feel like? Superman? It didn’t make them stronger; all it did was take them away from me. Sighing inwardly, I was so close to death and I don’t feel strong at all. I feel like a suicidal wreck. I can’t help but know it should be me in that casket and not them.
The Minister’s voice breaks into my fading thoughts shaking me into the present. I avert my eyes and stare off into the distance, my eyes on two birds circling the field in the distance. I wonder what it would be like to fly away, to not have a care in the world.
Lowering the caskets into the ground is almost too much to bear; watching the changing leaves dancing around the cemetery floating along with the breeze, I long to float away with them. The same crisp autumn breeze tangles my hair pulling it in front of my face and pushes my hair behind my ears while I look at the bright sun. 
The birds are singing bright happy songs and I find it ironic, it should be raining.  I hear women behind me sniffling into tissues, issuing a cough here and there. Someone near the back is gossiping and it’s taking everything in me not to turn around and tell them to shut up and stop crying. They didn’t lose their family. I did. I should be the one crying, but I’m not. My knee is throbbing in pain standing on crutches watching the minister drone on and on, the pain medication doing nothing to dilute it.
