5 Ways Authors can be Tweeps, not Twits

I know lots of authors love Twitter, but I think just as many hate it. Here are a few ideas for those getting started with twitter or for those who want to maximize their time there. Rule number one when you JOIN twitter is to follow a lot of people–people you have things in common with. That’s the best way… Read More

Mentoring–What does it look like?

My friend, Becky Doughty, just blogged so eloquently on the topic of mentoring here: http://beckydoughty.com/2013/03/07/mentoring-or-enabling/. She shared a very personal experience about when her mentoring turned into enabling–not good for either party involved. As I mentioned in this post, http://heatherdaygilbert.blogspot.com/2013/02/where-have-all-mentors-gone-and-winner.html, after many discussions with my author friends, we felt the strong need for mentoring for marrieds and authors. The way… Read More

The NORSEMEN are here!

VIKINGS miniseries on The History Channel As you probably heard, the Vikings miniseries launched on The History Channel Sunday night. As I mentioned on my FB author page, #Vikings was the top trender that day on twitter. It’s nice to look up #Vikings and find stuff about ACTUAL Vikings for a change, and not the football team. Not that I… Read More

Things that made me happy this week: my willow tre Things that made me happy this week: my willow tree, steadily growing bigger every year; bought myself a copy of Sunrise on the Reaping (but am I really feeling dystopian enough to read it? Not yet); my first irises of spring; and finally an Etsy decal I’m thinking about getting for my car since I’m such a #tombraider fan and still playing through #TombRaiderRemastered. What made you happy this week? #authorsofig #authorlife #writerofinstagram #westvirginiawriter #wvmountainmomma #wvauthor #southernwv #gamergirls #gamermom  #springflowers #appalachianspring
If you know me or have read any of my #WestVirgini If you know me or have read any of my #WestVirginia-set books, you’ll know I’ve been taken with #TheGreenbrierResort from the moment I first visited it. It’s only an hour from me in #greenbriercountywv. Every year, I love walking around the grounds to see the #tulips—my favorite flower—and this year we caught them at just the right time. If you want to read about it in my books (I do on-the-spot research), check out Undercut and Deadlocked in my #hemlockcreeksuspense series or Fair Trade in my #BarksandBeansCafe #cozymystery series, among others. Setting books in the lovely town of #LewisburgWV is so fun—plenty of great shops and restaurants there, and if you’re ever in town, be sure to drop by The Greenbrier! #authorsofinsta #authorlife  #westvirginia #wildandwonderfulwv #wvauthor #appalachianspring #tulips #tulipsofinstagram #tuliplover🌷 #silversisters #marriedloveofmylifeā¤ļø #heatherdaygilbertbooks #mysterylover
I’m making two separate things that made me happ I’m making two separate things that made me happy posts this week—the second will be pics of a quick trip to #TheGreenbrierResort to look at the #tulips. But here are some of my own tulips pics and other things I enjoyed this week: 1) got to get #coffee @otterandoakwv cafe with my daughter—always enjoy looking at artwork and the relaxing atmosphere. 2) if you’re from #WestVirginia, you can guess what these are—I cooked some up with fried potatoes this week. Anyone have a favorite ramp recipe to share? 3) my Rembrandt tulips that have candy cane colors, 4) my loud yet loving #flametipsiamese #cat Westley, 5) my grandson’s onesie that cracked me up, 6) more Rembrandt tulips from my #flowerbed. More to come with a tulip/Greenbrier photo dump soon! #authorsofig #authorlife #flowerstagram #wildandwonderfulwv #appalachianspring #catsofinstagram #cafe #wvauthor #wvrampseason
