Thoughts on Finding Your Inspiration and Romance Book Ideas Coming Next…

by

I’m excited(and nervous and scared too) to be on the home stretch with finishing this newest nonfiction book, Finish Your Book. I’ve noticed that it seems to take extra finishing energy as you wrap up a book. I share my thoughts on how to build finishing energy in this new blogpost at my website for writers here.

As I’m on the home stretch for this nonfiction book, my thoughts are beginning to turn back to writing fiction. If you also love reading and/or writing fiction stories like me, you’ll understand the passion that comes from a new story.

In this post, I thought I’d share some thoughts on finding your inspiration and me lately and book ideas I’m working on next.

Finding Your Inspiration

As readers and as writers, we find our inspiration from those things that catch our attention. Normally, there are so many things that catch our eye, that we can just shrug off the details or the ida.

But, sometimes we are compelled to stop and pay attention to new creative possibilities in an old thing or perhaps new ideas that we’ve never seen before. When we are compelled to STOP AND LOOK at an idea or possibility or when we are SUPER CURIOUS about an idea, I believe those are the inspiring ideas we should really pay attention to.

Those creative ideas that make us stop and take a second look, are telling us that this is what speaks to our souls. That sense of wonder and curiosity that bubbles up inside of us, is saying follow me here and I’ll lead you down a path of creativity and enjoyment that’s bigger than you imagined. 

I hope you’ve been stopped in your tracks in the past few months by new creative ideas and possibilities.

That’s happened to me recently.

I’ve written ideas down in my journal knowing I need to sit on them until I finish writing this nonfiction book for writers.

I’ve had ideas for the romance series that I started on awhile ago.

Romance Book Ideas coming next…

Besides writing the pen name(still secret for now) romance books, I’ve had a few idea changes to the Mulberry Island romance series.

I’m looking forward to finishing Return to Love(book 1), as Abby’s journey is so inspiring to me. It’s one of those compelling ideas that won’t let me go. I think it much of the pull to write this story, is that of the tragedy on her wedding day which sends her in tears home to the island – to a place she didn’t want to go.

It speaks to me about healing old wounds and finding restoration in what you thought was lost. That’s definitely Abby’s story.

I do have other ideas swirling around too. I was surprised by a phase of curiosity around writing Regency Romance too. Never thought I would want to write a regency, but the idea has a curiosity and wonder about it that won’t let me go. So at some point I want to write a series of Regency Romance novels.

Sometimes it’s surprising what shows up in your imagination. You wonder how that idea ever came into your head, but it’s there pulling you to write about it.

So that’s what I’ll do. I hope you follow your curiosity and wonder today too… you might be surprised at the joy you find on the other side! 😉

 

What ideas have inspired wonder and curiosity in you lately?  Please do share your thoughts in the comments, I would love to hear from you!

 

 

Why I Chose to Write a Romance Series Under a Pen Name

by

I thought it was time I wrote about a little of what I’m up to and what I’m writing nowadays.

If you stop by my blog regularly, you’ll probably have noticed that lately I’ve only been posting once a month.

There’s a couple of reasons for that: 1)I decided to move my blogposts for writers over to createastoryyoulove.com, so I could focus this website on updates on fiction I’m currently writing. 2)I also decided to blog less often in general, so I could find more time to the write stories I’ve been aching to write. So if you haven’t seen a blogpost from me for awhile it’s because I’m doing more writing 😉

I am still writing stories with my real name – Lorna Faith – right now I’m focussed on finishing the nonfiction book to help writers titled, Finish Your Book. This book is scheduled for release September 30, 2018.

However, I’m still writing romance.  Today I thought I’d share why I decided to write a romance series under a pen name.

Why I created a secret pen name…

In the past year or so I had this compelling idea that I couldn’t shake: Wouldn’t it be fun to write romance in secret? What if I could write love stories without people knowing it’s me writing these books?

That’s where it started around a year or so ago. I couldn’t shake the idea, so I ended up choosing a pen name and even created an author website for my pen name.

So, back to the original question: why did I decide to create a secret pen name?

The first reason I created a secret pen name is because I wanted to try an experiment. I wanted to see what it would be like to write romance without anyone knowing these books were written by me. My thought process behind this was: I wondered if I would feel like I had more freedom to write, if I knew I was writing under a pen name?  So far, I have to say it feels pretty good.

The second reason I created a secret pen name is because I wanted to use it as a test to see if I could market these books differently and what would happen when I did. I wanted to design the book covers in a unique way, way different than with any of my other books.

Lastly, the third reason I’m writing with a secret pen name is because I wanted to have fun creating novels that are different than I usually write… and having that freedom to write what I want.

I have to say, it’s been such fun writing this way 😉

So you might be wondering about the romance series I’ve started under my own name, the Mulberry Island Romance series. Those are still in the works and I’m excited to write them. First, I want to finish writing this nonfiction book  and then I’ll be ready to finish the story of Abby and Jack in Return to Love(Book 1 in the series). You can see the book cover to the right, if you’re curious.

I’m writing more now and loving it and I’m looking forward to getting more books out there.
