Newsletters, Beginnings, and Plots Oh My!
So I am totally behind on sharing the Youtube videos that we have done at #LoveWriteCreate so I thought I'd share a few of the most recent and you can watch 'em all or pick if something sounds interesting to you (but I know you want to watch them all because you might miss out on our random entertainment ;)
First up! We invited author S.M. Boyce to share with us her knowledge of Newsletters. Check her out!
Next up! We at #LoveWriteCreate shared with you how we each began the writing process in the hopes that it might inspire you to either finally start writing that idea that you've kept in your head for so long or just to know that you might not be alone in how you began. All of our processes are different.

Lichgates
(Grimoire Saga #1)
Kara Magari is about to discover
a beautiful world full of terrifying things—Ourea.
Kara, a college student still reeling from her mother’s
recent death, has no idea the hidden world of Ourea even exists until a freak
storm traps her in a sunken library. With no way out, she opens an ancient book
of magic called the Grimoire and unwittingly becomes its master, which means
Kara now wields the cursed book’s untamed power. Discovered by Ourea’s royalty,
she becomes an unwilling pawn in a generations-old conflict—a war intensified
by her arrival. In this world of chilling creatures and betrayal, Kara
shouldn’t trust anyone… but she’s being hunted and can’t survive on her own.
She drops her guard when Braeden, a native soldier with a dark secret, vows to
keep her safe. And though she doesn’t know it, her growing attraction to him
may just be her undoing.
For twelve years, Braeden Drakonin has lived a lie. The
Grimoire is his one chance at redemption, and it lands in his lap when Kara
Magari comes into his life. Though he begins to care for this human girl, there
is something he wants more. He wants the Grimoire.
Welcome to Ourea, where only the
cunning survive.
Get your free ebook copy!
Treason
(Grimoire Saga #2)
Kara Magari ignited a war when she stumbled into Ourea and
found the Grimoire: a powerful artifact filled with secrets. To protect the one
person she has left, she strikes a deal that goes against everything she
believes in. But things don’t go as planned.
Braeden Drakonin can no longer run from who—and what—he is.
He has to face the facts. He’s a prince. He’s a murderer. He’s a wanted man.
And after a betrayal that leaves him heartbroken, he’s out for blood.
To survive, both Kara and
Braeden must become the evil each has grown to hate.
Heritage
(Grimoire Saga #3)
Kara Magari isn’t normal, even by Ourea’s standards—and in a
world of shape-shifters and soul stealers, that’s saying something. To the
royalty, she’s a loose cannon. To the masses, she’s a failure. But Kara’s
arrival in Ourea started a war, and she’s going to end it.
An ancient isen named Stone takes an interest in Kara’s
training, and it turns out he has more answers than he originally led her to
believe. In an effort to unearth a secret that might end the bloodshed, Kara
instead discovers an ugly truth about her family—and how much she has in common
with an infamous mass-murderer.
Braeden Drakonin has slowly rebuilt his life after the
betrayal that tore it apart. His father wants him dead, and frankly, his
so-called allies wouldn’t mind that either. Private alliances are formed. Secrets
are sold. Tension is driving the armies apart. A single battle will end this
war, and it’s coming. Braeden may be a prince, but it will take more than that
to survive. He must take the fight to his father’s door—and win.
Illusion
(Grimoire Saga #4)
The final chapter in the war for
Ourea ends with blood.
Kara Magari is an icon. A hero. The people love her. The
royalty tolerates her. She has everything—an army, allies, and a close circle
of chosen family. They believe she will end the war, and they shouldn’t. She’s
as scared as they are. She just can’t show it.
The war she accidentally started ends with a final battle
that will either save or enslave her people. She will do anything to win—until
she learns the cost of victory.
Braeden Drakonin is afraid of what he’ll become when he
takes over his father’s kingdom—that much authority can change a man. But his
father has already tried to kill him more than once, and it’s time to end his
reign. Braeden’s armies are ready. His strategy is foolproof. His generals are
waiting for the order to attack. It’s only in the final seconds before the
battle begins that he realizes he missed one crucial detail—the traitor.

Finding Litchgates Tour with S.M. Boyce
Heyo! S. M. Boyce here. I’m on this cozy blog today as part
of my Finding Lichgates Blog Tour. My hosts are so awesome for letting me show
you the stories of how some of my fans found Lichgates and the other
books in the Grimoire Saga.
So, for those of you who aren’t familiar with the series, I
think I should explain what a lichgate is. A lichgate is a portal that ties our
world to the terrifying and beautiful world in my Grimoire Saga called Ourea.
Lichgates can be found in remote places, and when you walk through a lichgate, the
land you cross into is not what you would see if you’d simply walked around the
portal.
For many fans, stumbling upon the first book in the Grimoire
Saga is much like stumbling through a lichgate. That is why this tour is all
about the fans and how they found their first lichgate into the world of the
Grimoire Saga.
To see more Finding Lichgates Stories check out the blog tour schedule.
Meet Kayla. This is her Finding Lichgates Story:
I found Lichgates on Twitter back in 2012. I had added S. M.
Boyce and one of her tweets stood out to me. I clicked on the link and found
her book, Lichgates. I think it was
$.99 at the time and I liked the blurb. Of course, I got busy and was unable to
read it right away. A few months later, I finally opened it up and began to
read. Man, was I taken for a ride. This book had that most amazing world and
some seriously awesome characters too. From there, I couldn't help but find out
more about when the next book would come out and how I could help Boyce spread
the word about such a great book!
Blurb for Lichgates:
Kara Magari is about to discover a beautiful world full of
terrifying things—Ourea.

recent death, has no idea the hidden world of Ourea even exists until a freak
storm traps her in a sunken library. With no way out, she opens an ancient book
