Book Review: Antiheroes by Phoenix Fiction Writers

Book Review: Antiheroes by Phoenix Fiction Writers

For those of you who don’t know, the Phoenix Fiction Writers are a group of indie speculative fiction authors who’ve banded together to support each other, promote each other’s work, and write awesome anthologies together like Antiheroes. All of the people involved are amazing, both as people and as writers. I was super excited to get a chance to read Antiheroes before its official release in exchange for a review, my expectations were high, and I wasn’t especially disappointed. Without further ado, let’s get into the review. Continue reading “Book Review: Antiheroes by Phoenix Fiction Writers”

The Shared WIP Tag – Week 3: Antagonist Questions

The Shared WIP Tag – Week 3: Antagonist Questions

This post was supposed to go up on Friday, but my site has been down since last Tuesday so I wasn’t able to post it. But it’s here now, so let’s get into it. :)

Introduce the main antagonist of your book!

Meet Orlan Resdin, captain of the Mandorian guard. He’s not nearly as nice as the actor looks in this picture. He grew up with Coraline and Gabel and the other three kids who trained to become the next Paladin, and his gift is super-strength. He has a hot temper, holds a grudge like nobody’s business, and has a distinct lack of self-control. Continue reading “The Shared WIP Tag – Week 3: Antagonist Questions”

Author Interview: R.M. Archer

Author Interview: R.M. Archer

Last week I got to interview my friend Allie (yeah, I know, you hear about her a lot. That’s not likely to change.) on her blog, Of Rainy Days & Stardust Veins, and this week it’s her turn to interview me. I have a past interview up on the blog with my sister as the interviewer, but it ended up kind of stilted and awkward, so I’m hoping with this one it’ll be a bit looser and more comfortable. Let’s get started. :)


Allie: Thanks for having me Autumn. Wow, I’m pretty sure this my my first official time here on your blog!

Archer: I think it is. XD But I’ve mentioned you several times, even before you had your own blog.

Allie: Oh, look. :D I’m famous! ;) Yay! Anyway, first question: what story(ies) are you working on for NaNoWriMo? Continue reading “Author Interview: R.M. Archer”

The Shared WIP Tag – Week 2: Protagonist Questions

The Shared WIP Tag – Week 2: Protagonist Questions

It’s time for the second week’s Shared WIP Tag questions, and they’re all about the protagonist. (I’m super excited to read everyone else’s answers. ^-^) Most of y’all know Coraline from Preptober Prompts, but if you don’t… you’re about to learn about her. On to the questions!

Introduce your MC a little (name, maybe a description or picture, etc,) and tell us something quirky about them.

Coraline Seralen is a compassionate Paladin who has a passion for helping people and Continue reading “The Shared WIP Tag – Week 2: Protagonist Questions”

The Shared WIP Tag – Week 1: General Questions

The Shared WIP Tag – Week 1: General Questions

So y’all, I totally intended to finish Preptober Prompts, but I just could not get all of the flash fictions done in time. Still, if you participated in Preptober Prompts I’d love to hear what you thought of it! Is it worth bringing back next year?

This month I’ll be participating in Julian Daventry’s Shared WIP Tag, which is all about NaNoWriMo projects. Each Friday I’ll get to answer a bunch of questions about my NaNoWriMo project, and I’ll link to the other participants’ posts at the end. :) Continue reading “The Shared WIP Tag – Week 1: General Questions”
