What? Huh? Yeah, I'm here...Sort Of.

Happy Wednesday (late afternoon),

Hi everyone! No, I haven't forgotten the blog or any of you. I've been pretty preoccupied lately.

The best way to keep up with me is to find me either one of two ways (or both ways):

On Twitter:  @WriteByBethany

Or on Facebook:  do a search for Bethany Averie

I update those frequently.

There's been some blog updates that I did today. I updated books I finished reading. (Yes, it was good).

I also updated about my writing. The status on Immortal Dreams Book 1:  Dream Weaver is that I got my critiques back so now it's in the revision process (and then that will go out to CP and beta reader/s and then more revisions until it's ready). I've got the companion novel for Surreal in the process of being written (that's been a bit slow) and Immortal Dreams Book 2 (Dream Weaver sequel) started. So I've been fairly busy on that front.

Updates have also been added to what movies I want to see. Of course that was off the top of my head and I'm going to have to go BACK over the movies that have recently come out and the ones that are now released on DVD to double-check which ones I want to see to further update the list.

I've been doing some brain storming with one of my beta readers for the YA series (Immortal Dreams) and that was a lot of fun.

I expect I'll be busy reading before too long and of course edits. So, if you don't hear from me, don't despair. There's always Twitter and Facebook and I will return.

Meanwhile, get yourself over to my Critique Partner, Tess St. John's Launch Party and Giveaway. It ends Thursday (tomorrow) at 9pm Central Time, so you do not want to miss this. While you're at it, pick up a copy of Chance For Freedom, her newest Historical release (and one I had the honor of critiquing). Great novel written by a fabulous author.

Have A Whimsical Wednesday!

It's Worth A Fortune

By
Happy Tuesday Everyone, Does anyone remember the song If I Had A Million Dollars by Barenaked Ladies ? I can't remember when or how I was first introduced to this song, but it's a fun song. So, how about if you had a million dollars? What would you do with it? Of course there's the responsible things to do with a million dollars--pay off debts, and such like that. Then there's the question of whether or not you give to charities, and how much. But, suppose you answered all those questions and you still had quite a lot left; what would you do with it? Maybe I'd go to Disney World. I've wanted to go, and I've never been able to. Or, perhaps I'd go to Germany and England, and Belgium (three of the countries my ancestors are from). Travel around seeing family and friends I don't see often. There's all kinds of possibilities. So, what about you? What would you do with a million dollars? Have A Tremendous Tuesday!

Spotlight On Author: Loretta Wheeler

By
Happy Tuesday Everyone, There's a gem of an author I've had the privilege of coming across...I'm talking about my friend, Loretta Wheeler. She's a sweetheart and very talented author. I enjoyed her YA Paranormal novella, The Pan Man immensely. And, she also writes Romance. So without further ado, come into my parlor and meet Loretta Wheeler: Me:  In your YA novelette, The Pan Man , you mention Pan's looking for his long lost soul mate. What made you choose Pan out of all the Greek/Roman gods and goddesses? Loretta:  I chose the Greek god Pan, because of the connection with the music. I found later on in the story, (my stories take over and write themselves usually) it applied even more than I realized because of the band's name. I won't mention the name of the band in here, because it's part of the surprise ending. Me:  You're mostly known for your Romance stories. How would you describe your writing style? Hot, suspenseful, sensual, sw...

Myths About Writers

By
Afternoon Folks, I thought we'd do a post to dispel some of the myths people seem to have about writers. I'll put the ones that first come to mind then y'all can chime in. Myth: Writing is a great way to make a lot of money. I'm not sure exactly how this one matriculated. Probably in the wake of some of the big best sellers (i.e. Stephen King, Anne Rice, Stephenie Meyer, JK Rowling, and the like) but most of the time writers put in more money for their writing than they do get out of it. Generally a writer doesn't make a ton of money unless somehow his/her book is a blockbuster hit and blasts through what the author owes in the advance (which is paid back to publishers through royalties). Most writers I've met and talked to are not millionaires. I'm not saying it can't happen, I'm saying it's not one of those things that's automatic. Myth: Writing Is Easy Anybody Can Do It. Okay, granted this isn't entirely a myth, but it's not ent...
