Writing paranormal romance fanfic

Well, since I got my .38 uniball signo, I have been madly jotting down some dreams I've been having. One dream, I seemed to have an episode per night, sometimes day...causing me to lose my appetite, I'd be so lost in space. ^^;;

Then lastnight another "plot bunny" attacked. I plan to scribble down the madness and try to come up w/some sort of short story.

sounds interesting, care to share? are you saying there is a coorelation between weird dreams and using sigmos?

Will i be having the same dreams when i get my pens??

No, I am simply stating that should such dreams attack! A great way to log and note your dreams is to use a good quality pen. Like the crisp point of a brown-black uniball signo! :D

I don't really have a preference for color, altho' when writing down my notes I did get ticked off after trying to write them w/the pastel colored pens. (Didn't feel serious...)

I have used little over half the barrel of the black-brown signo since then.


>:D (We need a better "evil" looking emoticon... :twisted: doesn't cut it

I bet instructors get mad at my bright orange and green essays during exam time =P. yeah and pastel colors are so... light its like the ideas are fading as I write... i should keep a dream diary too... but if i did that i would be late for class everyday

Believe you me Dud, the moment you keep a dream diary...you will have (I can't gaurentee tho') more vivid dreams....

It could just be me...(^_^;;) I have more vivid, sensual dreams...

:D But I wake up at 5:30 every weekday and I feel refreshed..(Albeit, I end up going to bed at 9:30...I can't wait to go to bed b/c I can't wait to feel what dreams' coming up next??) It's like a free movie!!! :D

I write historical romance with interracial characters. Where and how can I better promote my work? My niche is historical romance involving interracial characters, mostly, African-American/Blacks and a person of another race. Hey, how do you think my people got to be all colors? My latest release charts the romance between a free African American woman and an Oneida Indian man during the American Revolution in New York state. I like exploring where Blacks were during key events in history. Where and how can I promote this sub-genre? My publishers had faith in me and took on the story. Now I want others to enjoy it too, not just sit on a shelf.
