Writing Tip of the Week


DON’T be afraid of your own voice and style. 

DON’T attempt to write in a popular author’s style rather than your own. It won’t ring true and the writing will be shallow, leaving the reader to feel a lack of connection with you.

DO put pieces of yourself—your soul, your character and personality—into your novels, so readers can relate to YOU when they read your stories.

Love, honor and respect your own voice, and appreciate that you have one!

~Mary Sullivan
