Let’s Connect with the fun Writers Tag

My friend and fellow writer Ari and her friend Lorraine have created the fun writers tag as she says: “Being a writer can be a lonely business.  So we thought we’d create the Writers Tag to get the ball rolling and in a fun way, introduce each other to all the wonderful writers who blog.”

Ari was kind enough to tag me into this and so here I am passing on the tag magic.Before we start the Writers Tag, here is a little work to put in:

☆ Post the Tag and Image on your blog (see above).

☆ Thank whoever nominated you and give a link back to their blog.

☆ Mention the creators of the tag and link back to their blogs.

☆ Nominate 6+ deserving bloggers and notify your nominees by commenting on their
blogs.

This Writers Tag was created by Lorraine Ambers and Ari Meghlen.  Click on the highlighted names to check out their blogs and don’t forget to leave a comment to tell them that you’ve played the fun Writers Tag so they can connect with you too.

So let’s get started with this fun, quick-fire Writers Tag and get to know each other a little better.

Questions for the Writers Tag (and my answers)

 

• Name one novel that inspired you to write.

I think many novels have inspired me, and each one I read helps me grow in some way as a writer. 2001 was a big inspiration for me, but since then have been many more. Most notably the Martian.

• What’s your favourite genre to write and read?

The major genre I read and write is Scifi but I also have a bit of a taste for fantasy too.

 

• Do you prefer to write stand-alone or series?

I’m not sure yet, I haven’t written enough.

 

• Use 3 words to describe yourself

Geeky, thinker, imaginative.

 

• Reveal your WIP aesthetics or an image that represents your MC or setting.

 

 

• How long did your first MS take to draft?

The clock is still ticking…

 

• Who is your author idol?

Arthur C Clarke. His imagination and inspiration was amazing.

 

• Share a writing memory that made you determined to carry on.

I can’t actually think of one….

I don’t know.. Am I unique?

 

• Share the hardest part about being a writer and how you overcame it.

Finding time and headspace to write really is challenging for me.
