![]() I had to learn to trust my business instincts too. I not only learned how to write fiction during this time. In 2012 (very early in my journey), I received an offer of publication for A LOWCOUNTRY BRIDE, but after much thought, I didn’t feel comfortable with signing on the dotted line. Seeing my stories make the final rounds (or even win!) was a very encouraging part of my writing career. I entered my manuscripts in writing contests, and they would final or win those contests. (And there are more requirements for subgenres like paranormal romance, inspirational romance, erotica, or historical romance!). ![]() All three have to be woven together seamlessly. Little did I know that I chose a challenging genre to write! It took me about 9 years to become skilled at writing a romantic arc, character arcs for two love interests, and a plot arc. ![]() Then I decided to focus on writing romance. I first dabbled in young adult and middle grade fiction. ![]() At the time, I knew nothing about novel writing, but I was passionate about it. Preslaysa: I started seriously writing fiction in 2008. Danielle: Welcome to Fresh Fiction, Preslaysa! Congrats on the release of your debut, A LOWCOUNTRY BRIDE! Can you tell us about your journey into publishing? ![]()
