Like a Warrior

 

"There is a warrior inside of me. If only I could find her."

Briannon, fiery heiress of Zayvia, is left in the ashes when an invading army and a fervent revolution rage across her once peaceful land. Alongside the peasant she knows as a brother and the shadowy revolutionary leading the fight, she takes a stand against both her pompous uncle and the cunning raiders. But when everything she loves begins to crash and burn, Briannon has a choice: admit defeat or rise like a warrior.

  2. Abby, could I be a beta reader for your story? Sometime last year, I began to LOVE fantasy books a LOT! I'd love to read this book. :D

    1. Hi, Hannah! I would love to have you as one, but I do have several people already signed up. ๐Ÿ˜• If you want to drop a comment with your email address (I'll won't post it, I'll just see it come up for approval and I'll delete it), though, I can make a note of it! That way if I end up needing another beta reader, I can contact you!

    2. Hi, Hannah! I saw your other comments go through, but I won't publish them here. :)
      But - I did see that you have a blog listed on your profile - if you have comment moderation turned on there, I can drop a comment with a link to a Google Doc (you can click on the link but not publish the comment). Then I could give you all the info there, and then drop another comment if I need another beta reader. In that case, I could put the story in our shared Doc. You wouldn't ever need to give me your email, that way (I have two other readers that I contact like that).
      That's the only other way I'd know of. :)

  3. Hi Abby -

    I really like your story collages. I'm thinking about making a story collage for a book of mine, but I'm not that tech savvy. :) How do you make them? Thanks!

    1. Hi!!! Thank you!
      So - I use a website called Canva. They have thousands of stock photos built in! You can just find the photos you want, just the "adjust" tab to filter them so they have a similar look, and then arrange them how you want!

Goodbye for Now

First off, I'm sorry I didn't get a post out last week! It's been a crazy few weeks - or, rather, months. And it's not gonna get any better. I'm finishing up high school in the next two weeks, leaving for college in a few months, trying to balance a sometimes-frustrating job, and working to get Like a Warrior  ready to go into the world. (a few months later than intended, sadly. But I want to do this right, so I'm willing to wait a little longer) And, so, for right now, I'm going to have to step back from blogging. This isn't permanent. This is just me trying to focus on my priorities and do what God wants me to do. Goodbye for now, y'all. Without worrying about publishing posts myself, hopefully I can be more active with reading and commenting on other blogs. And, if all goes as planned, I'll be back later ready to go full-steam-ahead with launch plans for LAW. Thank everyone one of you so much - for reading, commenting, encouraging me. I love y...

February 2021: Wrap Up//Writing Update

Is it just me, or did February slip right by us? Like - shouldn't it still be January? ๐Ÿคจ Anyway, I did get a lot of stuff done in February, short as it seemed. Started back my old routine of getting up before 6am to go sit on the porch and drink my cup of coffee. Did my first "rant-y" blog post. Had an amazing guest post by author Kellyn Roth. Got to do an interview with my friend Ellen Senechal - and she even shared an excerpt from her devotional! Made good progress on finding a routine for life, now that I'm balancing college, work, writing, and my personal life. Pushed harder on running, and got my fastest time in a while. Had an amazing surprise Barnes & Noble trip (supposedly me, my mama, and my sister were going clothes shopping - but the bookstore was only a few doors down from the clothes store, so I left them to clothes shop while I hunted for book bargains ๐Ÿ˜†). Discovered a new classic author that I already love - Agatha Christie. ๐Ÿคฉ (Not that Hercule P...
