Editing, Plotting, and a New Hobby
I'm tackling structural edits on my new book while working out what the next book's going to be about - but in the meantime I've discovered a new hobby and I'm loving it!
I'm Sharon, a hybrid author of thirty-two published books. My latest book, Hope Blooms in Tuppenny Bridge, was published on 18th October 2024 with Storm Publishing. I'm currently working on the first book in a new series for Boldwood Books.

First Draft Woes and a September Catch Up
Переглядів 63Місяць тому
Does anyone else suffer from a crisis of confidence when writing the first draft? I've been writing, but that's not all I've been doing in September! #authortube #writingcommunity #writinganovel I'm a hybrid author - traditionally and self-published. I write contemporary and speculative romantic fiction. For news and more sign up to my newsletter at: sharonboothwriter.com/newsletter-sign-up Web...

Journal looks fabulous x
You ARE an expert, my lovely xx
@@jessicaredland6904 aw, thank you xx
❤
Looking forward to downloading and reading your book for Boldwood.
@@lizzielamb7107 thanks so much, Lizzie. Looking forward to reading your new one xx
Great news, Sharon. You are a power house and an inspiration to others xxxx
@@lizzielamb7107 don’t know about that, but thank you xxx
I have no craft skills whatsoever, and I'm always jealous when I see these journals other writers put together! I love how you designed it and brought everything together. One day I'll be brave and make my own motivational/planning journal for one of my books. Best of luck on your next story!
@@AmberCampbellBooks thanks so much, but believe me I have no craft skills either! If your journal is just for you it really doesn’t matter does it? Go for it! It’s really fun! X
Omg washi tape! I'm a teeny bit obsessed...
You and me both! And I'd never heard of it until a few months ago! I've just bought more and I'm beginning to think I have a serious problem. I'm going cold turkey now. I've banned myself from buying anything else for this journal until at least June! xx
@sharonboothwriter but Christmas washis!!!!
@EmmaBennetAuthor already ordered! 😂
@sharonboothwriter love it
Your journal looks lovely. Oh, the dreaded edits. Good luck with those. Will be nice to have them sorted before Christmas, though.🌸
The first structural edits are always the biggie. The next few rounds should be a lot easier! Thank you. I'm quite chuffed with the journal but getting a bit too obsessed with buying stuff for it!
After so many books I'm pretty sure you can call yourself an expert. Great tips that make perfect sense. 🌸
Thanks very much!
Fabulous tips, if I say so myself, as I’ve used them all 😂! The number of times my kids and husband would wonder why I was miles away or so emotional on long car journeys… it was all to do with the CD that was playing! xx
Haha, I know! How can you explain that without sounding bonkers? 🤣
You definitely know what you're doing!
I wouldn't say definitely, Emma, but thank you! xx
Oh, hi from a new subscriber! looking forward to catching up on your videos. I’ve just submitted a romance novel to Storm Publishing. Would love to know about your experience with them. Congratulations on the Boldwood deal!
@@jessk7240 thanks so much for subscribing! Storm are going from strength to strength and I loved my editor, Naomi. Good luck with your submission x
Loving all your wonderful news 🎉
@@GracePower-h7e thanks so much xx
Loved hearing all your brilliant news. I'm glad you're feeling much better. Huge congratulations for your Boldwood news, hopefully I'll see you at next year's Boldwood Summer Party
Thanks so much, Deborah. That would be lovely! x
I'm so excited for your Boldwood adventures!
Aw, thank you, Emma. xx
Just love your vlogs 😊🤗
Love your Boldwood news, Sharon, but four books a year 😮! How do you do it? In absolute awe!! x
Thank you, Christine! So glad you enjoy them xx 😊
@@sharonboothwriter 😍
Great video, well done.
Thank you very much, Lizzie xx!
Happy publication day! Your book looks and sounds wonderful. x
Thank you so much! x
Congratulations. That's great news
Thank you! x
I'm up along the Scottish seacoast and taking the long way around is alway so much more interesting. I don't mind a first draft. I write petty clean but my issue is the 30,000 word mark. By 30,000 I am over it all 😂 and want to move on to the next project. I definetly have the "something shinny caught my eye" syndrome. 👏🏼😉
Haha, I understand exactly what you mean. Love that "I am over it all"!
Loving your UA-cam chats, Sharon! I'm a fan of editing too! xx
Thanks so much, Eliza. It's much better than a first draft, isn't it? xx
Fabulous news, many congratulations ❤x
Thanks so much, Grace x
I love this!
Haha, my family think I'm crazy! xx
@@sharonboothwriter My family don't understand my love for stationery either. x
So thrilled for you! Welcome to Team Boldwood. x
Thanks so much, Deborah. I'm delighted to be here, and I promise I'll comment on your videos when I hit this deadline on Friday! xx
@@sharonboothwriter No worries. Good luck with your deadline. x
How exciting 🎉🎉
Thank you, Christine x
Your trip sounds amazing! I've just started writing my 30th book and, like you, always think I don't know how to write when I begin writing that first draft. Good luck with yours.
Thank you. How can we not know how to write after all this time? It's so ridiculous but it happens with every new book! x
Looking forward to the new series.
Thanks so much, Grace x
We also hate motorways and take the scenic route!
@@EmmaBennetAuthor oh excellent! Most people think we’re crackers. 😂
@@sharonboothwriter The journey is part of the holiday! You need to make it fun!
@@EmmaBennetAuthor exactly!
I am looking forward to your new book set in the Cotswolds. I just love reading any of your books of such wonderful stories and now watching you on U tube. I disagree agree about Jilly Cooper though as I don’t like horses. I much prefer cows 😂
@@christinespiers3947 thanks so much! Cows are lovely but horses - oh, they’re incredible. Maybe one day Rupert Campbell-Black will buy a herd of prize cows. You never know with him! 😂
@@sharonboothwriter you never know 🤣
😅oh my goodness, I appreciate you sharing your experience with lack of confidence. I’m on my second book and thought it was just me being silly.
@@wendysimon81 definitely not. I think it’s a natural state of being for authors! 😂 You’ll get through this. Good luck x
Brilliant introduction
@@lynndaworsnop7604 thanks so much. Think I ramble too much though. I’m going to have to learn to be more succinct! 😊
omg, the fear paralysis, I go through EXACTLY the same with my books! I'm procrastinating right now by watching author youtube, lol.
The better Laura is here!!!❤
@@LauraGomez-bl2so it’s always a good thing when we recognise that we’re not alone in this. And it will pass! 😊
Yes, I climb into the UA-cam rabbit hole and next thing I know the day is passing by.
Hello and welcome to the community! ❤🎉
Thanks so much! x
Legit addiction
@@JemRichardson-p7l I know…
Wow!
Emma is brilliant, I follow her too and have learnt so much from her.
She makes it look all too easy, doesn't she? x
@@sharonboothwriter She really does x
Welcome! Love meeting other writers.
Thank you!
📚 Thanks for tagging me x
You're very welcome. Thanks for all your help x
📚 xx
Thank you xx
The Dark Wives is fab, you'll love it
I'm really looking forward to it xx
I've just had to get my passport because I needed ID for everything.
It's such a pain, isn't it? xx
You can never have too many mugs in my eyes - my family disagree
I think so, but The Husband doesn't! xx
I love your ghost and now going to have go spooky shopping.
They've got lots of ghostly things in this year - or maybe it's just that it's the first year I've looked! Happy shopping xx
📚 To prove I got to the end and it was fabulous. Can tell you're feeling more relaxed with this already. Love it xx
Aw, thanks so much xx
Welcome to the community!
Thank you very much!
well, you had me at 'cake'! well done, really approachable style.
Thanks so much, Karen! xx
Can’t wait to listen to yours and Helen’s podcast and I can just imagine how much giggling there was! I love children’s books too, I think they’re like a comfort blanket and, as you say, they can take you back to another place and time xx
Thank you, Jo. I hope you're enjoying the podcasts xx
Oh, this did make me giggle. You know I also hate shopping but, when I do go into one of those stores, I'm like a kid in a sweet shop. PURCHASES!!! Loved hearing the children's book story. Can imagine your mortification that she chose the day you were reading a kid's book to ask the question after all the high-brow stuff but, as you say, so what? Kids books are ace x
Thanks so much for watching! It was pretty typical of the sort of thing that happened to me back then - er, and what happens to me now come to think of it! xx
Your grandson enjoyed watching this, hiya Gandma
Aw, thanks for watching! xxx♥
Hopefully, you’re now due a week where everything goes right!! (Fingers crossed.) xx
I really hope so, but it hasn't started that way! xx
