In my previous blog post I gave you 4 steps you can try when beginning to write your book or story. This post will be a continuation with new steps to follow. Writing should be a joyous and fun experience. If you’re dipping your hands in creative writing just for the money, then this may not be the right path for you. When writing a book or a story it can take a long time of editing and revising before it’s perfect for publishing, but taking these steps first can help to at

There are plenty of articles and author blogs that give you their insights on how to begin writing a story or a book. Well, I would like to give my insight and what worked best for me. I’ve developed this method over years of experience in writing books and short stories. I was able to use this method while writing my debut new adult fantasy book, The Fairest . So let’s dive in with the first 4 steps. Stay tuned for the Part 2 which will list the next 4 steps. STEP 1: Have

You ask and wait For that moment when all you’ve asked comes. You seek and still seek Until all hope seems to be gone. You knock until your hand bleeds you think no one is home. But remember our time is not His time. He did pour out his blessings upon you. But you must be patient keep praying keep asking keep seeking keep knocking because when that time comes you probably would not notice until after you’ve finished smiling. Then you’d know that he had answered not when y

Right now, I have a few works-in-progress despite everyone telling me to focus on one.  However, I cannot help it , but I decided to listen! Recently, I self-published my new adult fantasy book, The Fairest , which I’ve been working on since 2017. And also for my MFA program, I wrote, created, and designed my psychological thriller of short short stories titled Stuck (released on May 14, 2022). And from these experiences, I’ve learned the ins and outs on self-publishing a b

Every time someone asks me this question “What does writing mean to you?” I always say freedom. I can’t help but to say freedom. In our world today we are sometimes oppressed to give our opinions or forced into a bubble where we have to accept the every day norm and be like everyone else. Well, I am not like everyone else. Instead of entrapping my mind from exploring and learning, I release it. I allow my imagination and my curiosity to take me on journeys I will never forge

The Fairest is now available as an eBook and paperback on various book selling platforms. This was a long, tedious, but exciting journey of publishing my book baby. This book is the first of a series that I hold dear to me. I can’t wait to continue this journey with you. Order Here — https://www.lequitacharrison.com/the-fairest To express my thank you for joining my email fam, I will be announcing a free book giveaway soon. You will have first chances to enter the giveaway.

The excitement is REAL! To me, writing a book is the easy part. Once you decide you’re ready to publish it and share it with the world, that’s when the hard part kicks in. My debut young adult fantasy book, The Fairest , underwent at least 10 full revisions (including copyediting and proofreading) before I ended with the final version. Then there’s the prep and the research for publishing a book that has to be done at the same time so when things start moving, everything wo

Hey have you checked it out yet? I have learned over the years that it is important for a professional and/or a creator to have a platform where people can find them and their work. I’ve always wanted the perfect website. The type of website that expressed who I am as a person while also being interactive, engaging, and interesting for visitors. Well, I sure hope I did good this time with my website. Last month I began transitioning my website here on WordPress to the one I

It is finally happening! My young adult fantasy book The Fairest , which I’ve been working on for at least five years now is ready for publishing! While I’ve been going through the publishing process to perfect my book for its release date, I’ve been working on some cool things on the sidelines. Things like the BOOK COVER! After a long conversation with my graphic designer, we finally came to a design that I felt to represent The Fairest to its fullest. I hope you all will

I am on my way to self-publishing my Young Adult Fantasy Fiction book called The Fairest. Here is a quick update on what’s been happening behind the process. Last night, I did more edits on Book One. I’m feeling very happy about this scene change that I’ve done. I’ve been changing and adding scenes this week, but this one I feel would help develop Mageia’s character. My beta readers are doing such an amazing job with pointing out plot holes and character holes and raising gr

P-eace And he spake a parable unto them to this end, that men ought always to pray, and not to faint ( Luke 18:1 ). Prayer brings natural and spiritual peace. When you’re placing your trust in God you are increasing your faith because you have decided to put worldly and manly trust aside to lay everything in God’s hand. Jesus said to always pray and you will not faint. Trouble and hardships may come your way, but Jesus promised to take them all away. He is your refuge and yo
