*checks Rose's Wrath's publication date* *sees it was March of 2020* Well, it's been a while, I'll admit that. Rose's Wrath was published to positive feedback and a deep love for many of the characters! Due to many different things, the next book, Rose's Ruin, has been MIA. I can say, though, that the first… Continue reading My Writing | It’s Official, Rose’s Ruin is Happening

Rantish Ramblings | You’re Still a Writer and I Hope You Know That
I stared at my laptop screen for what felt like the third time all year. And yet, the Google Docs page remained blank. Come on, I thought. How could I have just stopped writing? It was naive of me, looking back. Assuming that the (far) less rigorous life in high school couldn't have contributed much… Continue reading Rantish Ramblings | You’re Still a Writer and I Hope You Know That

Why Writing Multiple Novels Can Be Overwhelming… But Rewarding
Hello, readers! I am Oceane and I am actively writing four novels. Yay! I'm the kind of person to have lofty, somewhat unattainable goals that I strive to see through. Until I get burnt out... and feel like a failure... and grow apathetic when I actually just need some motivation. Anyone else relate? XD After… Continue reading Why Writing Multiple Novels Can Be Overwhelming… But Rewarding
Writer’s Block: The Bane of My Existence
You've been there. Perhaps you had just woken up, coffee/tea in hand. You sit down in front of your computer, determined to write at least one thousand words.

Why I Plan to Pursue Traditional Publishing and Why Both Routes are Valid
For my first novel, Rose's Wrath, I chose to publish it independently. It seemed like the better move at the time, and I don't regret it! But for my next novel, I want to pursue the traditional route. The main reason being that taking on all aspects of publishing (hiring editors, proofreaders, cover designers, and… Continue reading Why I Plan to Pursue Traditional Publishing and Why Both Routes are Valid
