New Year’s Eve – What are your writing goals?

Posted on December 31, 2009
Filed Under Updates from Ty | 3 Comments

New Year’s Eve is officially here. I’ve had the opportunity to be off from the regular routine for the past two weeks. It was nice to finally relax and take time to be reflective. Even more so, as I mentioned in the previous post, great to get back to writing. As the last day of the year dwindles away, I plan to continue working on a manuscript. Before I jump back into the last few chapters needing edits, I was led to journal about my writing goals.

Countdown to 2010

Posted on December 25, 2009
Filed Under Updates from Ty | Leave a Comment

I hope you had a Blessed Christmas Day with family and friends. It’s been awhile since I’ve blogged on my personal blog. Now that the year is winding down, I’m starting to do a bit more reflection. There are some projects left unfinished and other projects that literally grew and took over my time. I will be spending some time praying over what should be the priorities for 2010. One thing for sure, I need to balance my time in such a way where I can focus back on writing.

This year slipped by with me not submitting any queries to agents or publishers who accepted unagented manuscripts. The timing wasn’t there, but I’m hopeful that 2010 will be a time to step out on the water.

Thirsty by Tracey Bateman

Posted on November 19, 2009
Filed Under Book Reviews, Suspense | 6 Comments

If I have to admit there is a “fictional monster” I’m fascinated with, it would be the vampire. I decided to participate in a blog tour for a series of books. A vampire included in a Christian Fiction book strikes me as strange. Read the book description below. Have you read this book yet?

by Tracey Bateman

"Hello, I’m Nina Parker.and I’m an alcoholic." For Nina, even in recovery, the truth of the declaration has demolished her hopes and condemned her to return to the town she ran away from nearly two decades earlier-Abbey Hills, Missouri. But the place she once called home is no safe haven. A ritualistic-style murder.

Animals disappearing from the Ozark reserve where Nina works, and turning up slaughtered. And someone-or some thing-watching Nina. Wanting her. Stalking her with a 250-year-old desire that burns like a raging wildfire.

Nina’s ex-husband Hunt shows up, hoping to protect Nina and Megan, the angry teenage daughter who followed her to Missouri. But another man has entered the picture, testing Nina as she attempts to walk the tightrope of recovery-and the power of thirst. Much more than Nina Parker’s love hangs in the balance. The battle between love and obsession is destined to unfold to its startling, unforgettable end.

NOTE FROM TY: I will be posting a review soon and also check out Touched by a Vampire.
