Here is my growing stack of indie books! 😍 I have some writing help books by Jamie Foley and Angela Castillo, a wide variety of books by Joanna Penn (one of my new fave non-fic authors), Asunder by L. Steinworth, Fliers by Laura Mae, and The Brotherhood by Philip Smith. I look forward to adding to my stack in the near future — since joining the bookish community, I’ve discovered so many wonderful indie authors! _ Follow these amazing indies and check out their books: @heatherblair.author @annmariepaveseauthor @theartofliz @lauramaeauthor @author_philipmsmith @thecreativepennofficial @aviva_writes _ #writingcommunity #amwriting #author #authorlife #youngadult #yafiction #fiction #scifi #dystopian #fantasy #yaromance #romance #contemporary #bookworm #booklover #booklove #bookish #bibliophile #stories #ya #yaauthor #yaauthorlife #writinglife #aspiringauthors #booksbysr #indie #indieauthors #bookstack #indiebooks

One of the questions I get asked a lot is “What are some of your favorite books?” As a very particular bookworm, I have to fall completely head-over-heels with a book in order for it to make my favorites list. In today’s blog post, I discuss my top 5 favorite books and why I love them so much. Check out the link in my bio or head over to my website if you’re interested! • • #booksbysr #writerscommunity #author #authorlife #youngadult #yafiction #fiction #bookworm #booklover #booklove #bookish #bibliophile #blog #blogger #bookreviews #blogging #newpost #Favereads #favebooks #top5books #myfavebooks #TheOutsiders #RebeloftheSands #TheCruelPrince #SixofCrows #EverythingEverything

Here are the closeups of two of Villager’s character bookmarks! Vivianna is my main character, and Nex is my temperamental prince.

Warning: my cursive is messy and one of my m’s has an extra line (sorry, mom 😂). • • Recently I’ve been reading many business, indie publishing, and self-marketing books. I’ve been filled with new ideas. I’ve been challenged to go outside my comfort zone. But at the end of the day, doubt crept in. “Nobody will take me seriously.” “I’m too young to try this.” “What if people reject me?” • • When dealing with doubt, I turned to the creatives to see how they deal with it. Some listen to uplifting podcasts or have a Pump-Up music playlist. Others go to therapy or have a group they can discuss their doubts in. Yet others write out their why — why they chose their creative path. And yet others write down positive affirmations to tell themselves when they feel stuck. I used to think I didn’t need any of those, but with God continuing to push me out of my comfort zone, I realized I needed something to remind me that I am strong. In the picture are my positive affirmations. • • What are some positive affirmations you need to tell yourself today? • • #writingcommunity #amwriting #author #authorlife #youngadult #yafiction #fiction #scifi #dystopian #fantasy #yaromance #romance #contemporary #bookworm #booklover #booklove #bookish #bibliophile #stories #ya #yaauthor #yaauthorlife #writinglife #aspiringauthors #booksbysr #marketing #positiveaffirmations #optimistic #comfortzone #newbeginnings

#AdventuresinParkCity: Babysitting two very athletic kids means I get to travel all over Park City with them. This trip led me to soccer tryouts at a park that’s in a little valley surrounded on all sides by mountains. While spring/summer is continuing to try to gain a clutch on this part of the US, you can still see little bits of snow on the mountain peaks. While watching the soccer tryouts commence, a storm began to move over the mountains, the clouds flickering every now and again with electricity. The tryouts continued, the participants hoping the storm would simply pass on by. But then it happened — my favorite part just before a storm hits. The temperature abruptly dropped, the wind picked up, and a crack of thunder echoed through the valley. A thrill rushed through me, causing me to shiver in anticipation. The kiddos were disappointed because the soccer tryouts were postponed until the weather passed. I was reminded of God’s beauty and power. There’s just something about a storm in the mountains. 💕 • • #booksbysr #babysitter #babysitter #writer #explorer #adventurer #adventuresinbabysitting #soccer #ParkCity #Utah #storm #thunderstorm #clouds #outdoors #mountains #Godspower #Godsgoodness #Christian #Christianity #reflection
