Wellll... I'm two weeks behind on the #booksofmanycolors challenge, so here are my selections for "earth colors" and "sea colors." If you could make all the book spines on your shelves one color, would you? What color would you choose?

The first story I ever wrote was about a dinosaur ballerina. Okay, I was five or six, but I remember finding it in a box when I was older and thinking it was so funny and sweet. When I found this little lady while shopping a few weeks ago, I got a little misty-eyed and put her in my cart. 😂 I had to bring her home with me! What was the first story you wrote as a child or young adult? Do you remember? #indieauthor #writersofinstagram #authorsofinstagram #writersofinsta #writersofig #writingcommunity #writerslife
I wanted to do a shout out today to one of my favorite YouTube channels, The Florida Trailblazer. If you need a moment of zen during your day and can't get outside, Joe's videos capture the Florida wilderness so vividly, you'll feel like you're walking right alongside him. His videos are so peaceful and beautiful, you'll feel super relaxed and be inspired to get outside yourself as soon as you can! I discovered his channel when I was writing Ashes Swept, and his videos were instrumental in helping me imagine the Old Florida style "tractlands" and Synda May's long hike to Silver Glen. You can follow him here on Instagram as well as on Facebook and YouTube! 🌲🌴🌳 Keep up the amazing work, Joe! #writerslife #writersofinstagram #authorsofinstagram #writingcommunity #writinginspiration #momentofzen
I was tagged by @juliablakeauthor for the #booksofmanycolors challenge. It was harder than I expected to come up with a black and white stack. Today's the last day for black and white, but if you want to play, consider yourself tagged by me! 🖤 #booknerd #amreading #authorsofinstagram #authorswhobookstagram #authorssupportingauthors #bookstagram
Regardless of where you are on your writing journey--whether you’re just starting out or getting ready to publish your tenth book--there will always be rough seas and days where you struggle to keep your head above water. Just know that this is normal and part of what makes you a stronger, better writer. Keep going... you've got this! #indieauthor #writersofinstagram #authorsofinstagram #amwriting #writingcommunity #writerslife
First official day back to the grind. Trying to get caught up on Instagram, plan a new blog post, and get back to work on my WIP. Not to mention the daunting amount of work to be done around the house. I think I'll keep the Christmas tree up another week. I'm not ready to part with it just yet! What are you working on over the coming week? #indieauthor #writersofinstagram #authorsofinstagram #writersofinsta #writersofig #writingcommunity #writerslife
