More big news!
We have a NEW WEBSITE! You can now find us at projectaobooks.com but it wouldn't be a proper refresh if we didn't do this right.

I have been working on filing and paperwork for the #ProjectAO stuff. My eyes are crossing. But I am proud.
#indieauthordiscussion #writers
My co-author, the Plotmom of #ProjectAO, posted on Tiktok a rather good set of questions.
What are your answers?

#ProjectAO has big news coming. I can't say what it is yet. But it's big. Fantastic. Ecstatically big. SO EXCITED!

Join me in being excited toddlers.

Reviews - a Perspective
I love getting reviews. What author doesn't? Yes, I even love the not great reviews. Only one of those I had an issue with - not because they didn't like my book.

On June 21st, the third book of the Mountain Fell Series is out in the world! Preorder it now on Amazon! a.co/d/0a7zOLBV #indiefantasy #romantasy #ProjectAO #booktok #indiefantasies
@dreadpiratedash.bsky.social will be a full on published author in June and I am so proud of them! If you don't know who Bram and Magpie are, then you should catch up in Book 2 of the Mountain Fell for their introduction!

Mountain Fell - MC's Societal Thoughts?
Most of the MC are not happy with society as it stands. This is amusing, because all of them are technically part of the Ruling Elite.
Technically.
But hey, after a big war, who is happy?

Who makes the laws in the world of the Mountain Fell? Rulers. And there is a hierarchy amongst Rulers - the Mountain King/Queen is the highest of them all, and sometimes their Edicts last long after their deaths.
Follow up - A Peddler of Chains
The woman is Kiarian, and the man is Willow. This is the pair that is found in the dictionary under "Enemies to Lovers". IFYKYK.
Also, that dress. *drool*
#coverart #ProjectAO #indieauthor #bookart
A few folks asked about character illustrations - so I figured I would point at the cover of "A Bond of Thread" first. The man is Ilyas, the woman is Skye, and the tiny blue lady is Mycellica. Mycellica is the star. IFYKYK.

"He shook his head. “Were you raised by wolves? I’m trying to introduce myself. It’s customary to exchange names when meeting, no?”
“Yes.” She didn’t give him a name.
He waited. Nothing.

What serves as inspiration for you? Movies? Books? Videogames? Walks in the woods at night during a full moon? I can get weirder with the guesses, trust me.
For me, inspiration can be found in almost anything. Even in cleaning.

I went to a Light Art event at a park in Essen last night with my in laws, and it was wonderful. Talk about inspiration food.
“No,” the woman said in a clipped, cold tone.
With no more warning than that, the door was slammed in their faces".
#ProjectAO will give you an entire book about the best lesbian moms hunting down their lunkhead son. I am stoked. What are you looking forward to?
My go-to writing snack is - Doritos. But now I live in Germany, and my favorite Doritos don't exist. Sooo - my new favorite writing snack is Soft Früchtchen. (Soft Fruit Chews)
What's yours?

Who am I?
This is probably the most loaded question in any person's life. Often people say what they do. Author. Mother. Housewife. Executive. Lawyer. (Note, not all of these apply to me.)
But that isn't 'who' we are, is it? It can't be.

More is coming!
As I said last night, we have two books coming up in #ProjectAO - but here's a look back at the books already out.
Have questions? Ask away!
To Outline - Or not?
I am part of a co-op author group and we have a Plot Mom. We outline. I admit, it took me a while to get used to it. I am by nature a "Pantser" - I write and whatever comes out is what I will work with during edits.
#writingtips #indieauthor #ProjectAO #writinglife
So what have I been up to of late? Writing. Editing to be more honest. Project AO has two books coming out soon - House of Wings and Ember of Truth. I'm in Ember of Truth with @author-jpburnison.bsky.social and Elle Larsen.

These templates often start as a 1 or 2 page view. by the time a book is done, they might be 5 plus. The key is knowing that nothing is written in stone - until the book is published.
What are your ideas? What do you do for character creation in your stories?
#writingtips #projectao
Even if some of this is never obvious in the writing that the readers will see, these things help me get a clear picture of who a character is, how they would react or respond, etc. And when I'm stuck in a scene?
#writingtips #projectao
Character Creation - A Thought.
We all know the struggle. We want a character that stands out and pops. But how to make sure we have one?
One of the things I do is I create a general 'skeletal' Character Template. And these help guide my writing throughout the project.

I don't think there is a more entertaining way to introduce a character than having them shout, "LOOK OUT BELOW!".
