Hey everyone, I'm super excited (if you couldn't tell by the exclamation points) to announce that my cousin and I (HG Warrender, author of The King's Decree and a number of short stories) will be hosting a livestream intended for writers. We will be answering questions, and covering a few writing topics that we've chosen.…
Rate Precipice On Goodreads
Some of you know that I recently published an Amazon 'short read' (a story that takes only about half an hour to finish). I just got accepted as a Goodreads author, so click here to follow me! If you have read Precipice, I would really appreciate a review. If you haven't, you can get it…
Looking Rejection In The Face
Let's face it, writing is a hobby that makes us naturally susceptible to rejection. Sure, there are the writers like Jack Gilbert, who published world-renowned poetry and then disappeared for years at a time before coming out with his next piece of writing. Or writers like Walt Whitman, who stood against the boundaries set by…
What Kind Of Character Are You?

Roleplaying As Our Characters
Hi! My name is Flair, and I'm a half-human-half-Centri (A Centri is a type of... 'alien,' as you Earth folk call creatures from other galaxies). My author, Carynn, suggested that I write a post where book characters can communicate, helping their writers to better understand them. To start off, I'll tell you three things about…

Burning Plains (Middle Grade Book About Africa)
As I mentioned in my last post, I've been writing a new book that I've really been enjoying. It's a middle grade, but I really think that it can be enjoyed by older people, as well. I could use feedback, so if you don't have the time (or interest) grab the closest kid and have…
Writing Contest… No Winners?
So I must admit that I received way less entries than the last writing contest I hosted here on Writers BloK. In fact... there were no entries this time. Everyone's been a bit busy I guess, and I did have a few people tell me (both through Writers BloK and email) that they wanted to enter but…

Three Hours After Surgery
Wow. It's over. I'm back home, and I'm actually feeling great. I'm sitting on the couch with an emoji balloon suspended in the air beside me (from my Mom), a bottle of water and Panera mac&cheese on the end table, a card from my brother (and him himself sitting beside me, loudly slurping a slushi).…
