Express Yourself - MBTI

Express Yourself is the weekly meme where Dani @Entertaining Interests and I ask a question or discuss a topic for other bloggers to share and learn more about each other.

Some topics and/or questions could be repeats, but we do that because things change with time. This way, it keeps things updated.

Express Yourself - warning label

This cracks me up! There are times after I say something, I think to myself, "Why in the world did I say that?" or "Did I just say that out loud?" or In my head, I'll think something is funny or creative, and I'll share my thoughts, but it will be in 'Jackie-lingo' (i.e. come out confusing) and the person will stare at me like I'm speaking Klingon.

What would your warning label say about you?

IWSG ~ Nov 2014

Insecure Writer's Support Group hosted by Ninja Captain Alex J. Cavanaugh is a safe haven for insecure writers of all kinds.
His co-hosts today are LG Keltner, Donna Hole, Lisa Buie-Collard, and S.L. Hennessy.
To join, click on the name links above and post on your blog the first Wednesday of every month. Sign up and meet some awesome people!

So, I signed up for NaNoWrimo, and as I was writing last night, trying to get my daily word count in, I thought, "What in the heck was I thinking when I committed to this?"
It doesn't seem like 1600+ words a day for a month would be a lot, but it is when you're under a time crunch.
I occasionally stray to edit, but only a few times. Hey, it's a hard habit to break!
But I do like where my story is headed, and I love my characters, so those are bonuses, right?!

Any other bloggers doing NaNo this year? Care to do a word sprint?

~Have a great week and happy writing!

Kyra Lennon's Nobody Knows

Title: Nobody Knows (Razes Hell Book 1)

Author: Kyra Lennon

Genre: NA Contemporary Romance

Cover Design: Najila Qamber Design

Photographer: Lindee Robinson Photography

Synopsis:

It's not easy being friends with rising rock stars - especially when you're the glue that holds them together.

Razes Hell has taken off in the charts, and Ellie can't believe her childhood friends, Drew and Jason Brooks, are on TV and drawing crowds after years spent playing in dodgy bars. From obscurity to overnight success, Ellie soon realises life in the public eye isn’t all it’s cracked up to be as dark secrets become headline news and old conflicts are re-ignited. When a fake feud meant to boost the band’s popularity threatens to rip the boys apart for real, Ellie finds herself torn – a position which only gets more uncomfortable when her loyalty to Jason collides with her blossoming relationship with Drew.

Nobody knows how deep their issues run; nobody but Ellie. With friendship, a music career and a new love on the line, can Ellie keep their tangled pasts from ruining their futures?
