I didn’t think I would do it this year. The novel I had in mind, I couldn’t get researched in time. I had trouble even with desiring to write anything, and I worried that by the time November 1st came around, I’d have some motivation back but nothing to write. And so I, unusually for…

Announcing the Launch of #ABIchat on Twitter
One of the great things about Twitter is the way it fosters conversations, the way people support each other. One of the things the brain injury community is lacking is a place to chat regularly on Twitter. And so I am launching a regular Twitter chat I’ve given the moniker “#ABIchat.” After seeing other medical…
Time and Space Goes on a Virtual Book Tour
New novel, new book tour! I launched Time and Space on 4 June 2013 and sent it off on an Orangeberry book tour at the same time. Today ends the first leg of the book tour, which comprised reviews (to come), guest posts, author interviews, and a #TwitterView! Day One: Newbie Blast and a Feature…
Orangeberry Virtual Book Tour for my Novel She Comes to an End
Well, that was a busy few weeks touring my first novel She around the blogs and Twitter.

An Author Interview on Blog-A-Licious Authors and a #TwitterView
My Orangeberry blog tour continues. This weekend is a quickie author interview, my second one, and a #TwitterView, round 2. But just because the events are the same genre, doesn’t mean the questions and answers are the same! Blog-A-Licious Authors asks such questions as, “What genre are you most comfortable writing?” Regular readers of my…
#TwitterView with @ShireenJ on Writing and She
After Orangeberry’s Twitter Blast comes the #TwitterView, short for a Twitter interview. I’ve never done one before. But it’s not so hard — well, except for fitting in a complete reply between Twitter handles and hashtags. Hashtags are those snippets of text denoting an event or topic that start with the pound key symbol #.…
