The Steampunk World Fair was the best convention I have been to! There was so much to do between the Steampunk YA talks, bands, archery lessons and wonderful people just wasn’t enough time to do everything! However, I did do what was most important for me and I had a great time doing it.The most interesting was going to the Steampunk YA Fiction talk:A look into steampunk themes in young adult fictions with current authors.

Your a bad writer! (and reader)

Posted on May 12, 2012 at 5:59am 0 Comments 0 Likes

There is a saying that goes something like this: “Those that can’t do teach.” The origin of the phrase (I believe) being: “He who can, does. He who cannot teaches.” Man and Superman (1903) “Maxim for Revolutionist” George Bernard Shaw. But what do we call those that can’t do, but review? And not only review but review with a biased and prejudice.

First, let me be very clear. No I did not get some recent bad review and am trying to get back at someone. This… Continue

You're an idiot! I can't believe you signed that contract!

Ok, let me make this clear before we go on: I am an idiot too. I have coined the phrase “first author syndrome” and the meaning is when an author first gets done their book and it is their first time publishing, they are so stupid it drives me up a wall. You may wonder how I am able to give advice and why I am such a hardass about this topic. Because I went through it and I never want to see another author have the same hardship I did.

Red flag number 1:… Continue

Your Character Said What?!

Posted on May 12, 2012 at 5:55am 0 Comments 0 Likes

Many writers like to skip important steps of writing a great story. One of those steps is the creation of a character profile. I understand that it can be difficult to do, but understanding your character is a must. There will always be points in time when your character will surprise you with something new. Faith (from The Last Witch Series) as done this to me

many times. But having the nuts and bolts is the key to writing a story and not having to guess what your… Continue

I know you have lots of experience epubbing. I just posted on the subject if you want to comment (and get some free publicity for your ebook). Cheers, Catherine

At 11:58pm on January 21, 2011, Barbara Ehrentreu said…: Here are my suggestions for your pitch. Anything in parentheses without stars should be deleted. The stars are my suggestions. I have cut quite a bit for you without changing the ideas. In a pitch you need to catch the attention immediately. Think of it like a book jacket and write accordingly. Many times the pitch becomes your blurb.:)

Good luck and let me know if you like the suggestions. My daughter had to help me with mine. They are hard!!!

At 1:15pm on January 13, 2011, Sussan Khadem said…: Hi Elizabeth, Thanks for adding me. I clicked on the link to your site but I didn't find the information on the anthology. What is the due date for submissions?
