Imagine this: two larger-than-life characters, each with their own motivations, flaws, and strengths, facing off in an epic showdown. It’s a battle of wits, willpower, and sometimes, even swords. What happens when two forces collide in a contest that will determine their fate? You’ve just stepped into the world of...
Would you ever hit “rewind” on life and relive a moment? Maybe not when you spilled coffee during a job interview, but the good moments, like a first win or a meaningful conversation. In storytelling, writers have a tool for that: it’s called a flashback. What is a flashback, you...
Imagine Star Wars without Luke Skywalker. Or Marvel without Iron Man. Actually, don’t—because that sounds like a snooze-fest. Even the dullest hero has their place, and it’s thanks to a storytelling cheat code that’s been hardwired into our brains since the days of campfire tales and epic poems: archetypal characters....
Have you ever dreamed of sharing your love story with the world? Whether it’s a whirlwind romance, a slow-burn connection, or an unexpected twist, your story deserves to be read. If you’ve already written it, maybe it’s tucked away in a drawer or hidden in your laptop; you’ve taken the...
Faced with two versions of the same book, one abridged, one unabridged, and wondering which to choose? You’re not alone.

Picture this: you’ve just typed the final word of your children’s book, a story that’s been dancing in your imagination for years, now beautifully captured on the page. You breathe a sigh of relief, thinking the hard part is over. However, reality soon sets in: publishing is only half the...
Not all kids’ books are created equal. Imagine trying to read a picture book to a 15-year-old or handing a gritty YA novel to a preschooler. It’s like serving broccoli ice cream to a toddler; they just won’t bite! When it comes to writing children’s books, one size does not...
In the grand buffet of storytelling, the novella is the perfect middle course, more filling than a short story, yet lighter than a full-length novel. It’s the literary equivalent of tapas: quick to consume, but deeply satisfying. Typically ranging between 20,000 and 50,000 words, novellas offer rich plots and memorable...
Self-publishing a book is like planning a surprise party for yourself. There’s excitement, a dash of chaos, and a lot of last-minute scrambling, but when done right, it’s all worth it. Unlike the traditional publishing process, where you’re left waiting (and waiting) for approvals from established publishing houses, self-publishing puts...

There’s a certain magic in children’s picture books, the way they spark young imaginations with simple words and vibrant illustrations, inviting readers into a world of wonder. Each page is a new adventure, a chance to explore, learn, and dream, making these books a cherished part of childhood for both...
Imagine reading a novel where the sky is always just “blue,” the coffee merely “hot,” and the villain simply “mean.” Sounds thrilling, right? (Said no reader ever.) That’s where imagery in writing steps in, like a literary artist with a palette of sensory detail, ready to paint your words into...
