Sue Brown

Today, Sue Brown hosts another stop for Myths Untold: Faery – this time, Brandon Witt talks about exploring Faery: One of the reasons I jumped at the chance to be part of this Faery Anthology was for the opportunity to do something different.

Today’s Blog Tour Stop for The Autumn Lands

Cate Ashwood

Today I’m stopping by Cate Ashwood’s blog to answer some interview questions – Thanks Cate! How do you think your writing has developed since you started? Oh, it’s gotten much better. I first started writing when I was in fourth or fifth grade. I wrote on and off until my early twenties, when I finished my first novel. When it and five or ten short stories were all rejected, I kind of lost momentum, and though I tried to come back to it several times, it never really stuck. Somehow, though, I had this idea in the back of my … Read more
