Creative Writing

The beauty with creative writing is that you can make up whatever story you want.

Most of the time you needn't do research unless you're writing about a certain time period.
Of course, you need to make your "world" interesting for the reader.

I like to incorporate the area that I live in with my stories. Stephen King always had his stories based in Main where he lives so I understand now why he chose to do that.

Being familiar with the area makes it easy to pull real people, places, and events into the story.

That's why The Magic Herb is about the mountains in PA. The trails can be filled with animals lots of trees and heavy thicket and beautiful views with waterfalls.

That is why Nora could so easily have gotten lost.

Volunteer

The Magic Herb

The Magic Herb...what is it about?  Have you read it? Have you ordered it?

Decisions, decisions...too many choices to make.

She Doesn't Like It!

 She just doesn't like it!   I added my ebook The Magic Herb to the Goodreads site and I received thumbs down with an I don't like rating.

Now, The Magic Herb has some sexual scenes to the story and this woman did not like it.  I feel those scenes are appropriate to the story line and although I was a little surprised I guess some people may feel that way.

It is nowhere like Fifty shades of Gray, but I suppose some may be offended.

I just wanted to share this thought with you.
