Dear Alison and friends, You see that countdown? That's the countdown to Christmas, but I should update it for the Kim's Countdown to 20% off Manuscript Review and Writing Coach services because that deal ends tomorrow. I received a huge response via my newsletter. Evidently, people like a deal. "Who knew?" said the biggest fan of deals ever.  So I wanted to let our beloved readers in on that deal and another deal that happens tomorrow. Here's a hint...one of my books will go on sale for .99!!!  I told you I was going Holly Jolly crazy. I'll write a short post tomorrow about that deal, along with details about the New Adult Scavenger Hunt, which starts next week.  If you like to get in on the 20% off, use PROMO CODE: 2017DEAL in the comments, your reply email, or on my contact page:  KimBriggsWrite.com . Give yourself or someone you love the gift of a dream. I'll bill you through Paypal, but you don't need to send me your ma...

Dear Alison and friends, Today, I am excited. I mean REALLY excited, because well, I got to hangout with my writer buddy Juliana Spink Mills via the modern way: email/twitter/IG/FB. Juliana and I met at the NYSCBWI conference a few years back and have been friends every since. Juliana has been a much better friend to me than I've been to her this past year, but my resolution for 2018 is to rid myself of some of the extra responsibilities (stay tuned for details) and focus on what's really important supporting my community and that includes my writing community and the most important components of my writing community other than my readers are my writer friends. So Juliana, w hen did you start writing? Although I’ve always liked messing around with words, I didn’t start writing ‘for real’ until I turned 40 and told myself to stop procrastinating. Sounds like 40 was the kick in the ass you needed. I just gave myself a strict deadline to finish my current W...

Dear Alison and friends, Holy Cannoli!!  STARR FALL's 1st BOOK BIRTHDAY was Sunday, November 4. I can't even believe it's been a year since STARR FALL released into the world. I still need to pinch myself every time some random fan posts a picture of STARR FALL or writes a review or fangirls over, gulp, me...  As a special birthday treat, Starr was gracious enough to stop running from the Organization for just a few minutes to chat with us!   EXCLUSIVE CHARACTER INTERVIEW WITH STARR BISHOP  Hi Starr, can you tell us a little about yourself? Honestly, I don’t like to talk about myself. I’m more of a take charge, “let’s do this” kind of girl, but I’m not bossy. I’m not comfortable with small talk. It makes me anxious to sit around and chitchat at parties. I’d much rather be the person handing out punch and delivering slices of cake. Speaking of desserts, have you tried s’mores? They are to die for. I would kill for one right now. ...
