Welcome!

Hi there, I am Nicole. This blog is simply my little corner of the writing world. I used to own and operate the previous website known as Freelance Writer's Exchange, but my focus changed a lot and I decided to let that go and run with this.

I am a YA & Women's Fiction writer. Trying my hand at my first steamy romance novel. Wife. Mom to 5. Freelance contributor to family, food & lifestyle pubs. I love chocolate, books, photography, scrapbooking & Sushi. Not necessarily in that order.

I absolutely love comments, and love meeting new people, so please be sure and leave a comment so I know you've visited, and so I can come visit you.

Finding Ideas

I often see writer’s ask the question, “Where do I find ideas or subjects to write about?”.

While, this is a great question, it somewhat concerns me that one would need to “look for” ideas. Typically, what makes a great writer, is the need, drive and desire to share the information they find interesting or are knowledgeable . . . → Read More: Finding Ideas

Recently I came across an interesting concept that I feel like I should pass along to other writer’s. It’s known as Book 100. After you have selected the type of book that you want to write, (how-to, romance novel, children’s book, young adult, sci-fi) read 100 books in that selected genre.

I learned about this in Chapter After . . . → Read More: Book 100

It seems ridiculous to me both some of the habits AC’s Content Mangers (CM’s) have, and some of the things that other Content Producers (CP’s) complain about. There doesn’t seem to be a grey area either. It seems that with both sides, it’s either black or . . . → Read More: An AC (Associated Content) Tutorial

Eating Crow *gag* Re: Associated Content

I guess I am at a open mouth, insert foot spot. In fact, I am eating my own words from several weeks back. After this post, I wound up checking Associated Content out even further.

I was still wondering how it was going to benefit me at all, since I already had a pretty steady writing gig plus . . . → Read More: Eating Crow *gag* Re: Associated Content
