Pinterest and Novel Writing



Thank you to the person who invented Pinterest, why? 

Because my story keeps changing and it sucks at times!
Anyone else have that problem?
I have always wanted to write a novel but decided this was the time to do it. I know what I want to write about the only problem is somethings in my story keep changing and I am not sure where to start. I have the location set along with one of my main characters but the story itself keeps changing. At this point I am not sure what to do or where to turn.  All the webpages and blogs that I searched for to help tells me that this is normal. I just feel like something is off, was not sure where to turn. So……
This is where Pinterest came into play.

Ah yes, Pinterest. 
This has got to be one of my favorite websites to visit. I love being able to go on there and find just about anything that I need, it has come in handy for my daughter’s party planning, to finding new recipes, and now finding ideas and tips for my novel. It has really helped with character development, and how to plan the location.  I even found a map of the country that my story is set in.

So thank you Pinterest, you made starting my novel a tiny bit easier!

Welcome to Sissie's Novel Ventures!



Welcome to Sissie’s Novel Ventures!


As you can probably already tell, I am currently in the process of getting this blog the way I want it so please, be patient :) 

I started this blog awhile back but it just sat here, wasting away to nothing. A few months ago I decided to write my first novel, which is untitled at this time. While doing research for my novel, everyone kept saying that I would need an author site or blog to help get my name out there in the world. So I came back here and I am now in the process of getting my blog and novel together.

Hope you can join me on this fun but long journey! :)
