Falling Forward – An Update on My Manuscript

September 13, 2021September 18, 2021 Brenda BakerA Writer's Life

Hi, everyone. I finally finished my manuscript. Yup, you read that correctly. I finished my manuscript! Well – technically, I typed “The End” last August, but that first draft was in pretty rough shape, let me tell ya. Fast forward a year, and I’m working on the final edit. It’s a long road to publication…Continue reading Falling Forward – An Update on My Manuscript

Untimely Death – It’ll Keep You Guessing!

Last Sunday, I had the absolute pleasure of reading Untimely Death by C.Yvette Spencer. It was my Mother’s Day gift to myself. And what a wonderful gift it turned out to be! Untimely Death begins with Maria who owns her own clothing store. The day starts like any other ordinary day with Maria tending to…Continue reading Untimely Death – It’ll Keep You Guessing!

Books, Books, and More Books

March 25, 2018April 8, 2018 Brenda BakerSpilled Beans

I’ve loved reading for as long as I can remember. As a child, I’d visit my local library to borrow the maximum number of books for my age. On one of those visits, I noticed a woman checking out her own pile of books. I was so jealous because she could borrow more than me.…Continue reading Books, Books, and More Books

Coffee, Books, and Poetry

March 11, 2018March 11, 2018 Brenda BakerA Writer's Life

In this week’s post I’ve decided to include a fun little poem about coffee. I once joked with my husband that I’d write a poem about my favorite beverage some day. Then I got to thinking why not. I’m also including a site recommendation for indie authors and anyone who loves to read. An Ode…Continue reading Coffee, Books, and Poetry
