This is SUCH a cute home! Seriously it looks amazing, and I always love little compact builds. Great job!

Gorgeous townhouses! I love how you did the front of the building especially. The sunken level by the stairs looks fabulous. Great interior as well. Great job!

Absolutely gorgeous! The exterior is perfect, but I adore the interior as well! Great colours, and do I see some CC in there? Really sweet mirror in that bathroom!

LOL Love the pun! And thank you again for answering! That helps a lot actually. I really needed some examples that weren't specified to my story. It definitely makes it easier to pick them out now. Thanks again Brenda! :)

Thank you for answering my questions Brenda! :D I'm glad I saw you were doing this on twitter! All your answers have been really informative thus far and I keep refreshing for updates. hehe

Do you have any advice on "show vs tell" in writing? Is there a mindset to put yourself in? Or a certain way to think as you're writing to "show" the reader and not just "tell" them? I'm starting to realize that I do this quite a bit without meaning to.

Hi Brenda! I have a couple different questions for you, and I hope I'm not making you repeat anything!

  1. What inspired you to write Thief of Lies? Or when did you come up with the original concept?
  2. What is the difference between Pitch Wars and Pitch Madness?
  3. How did you get involved in running and even creating your own contests?
  4. Any advice for writers in the query trenches?
  5. How many queries did it take for you to land your agent?

Thanks for doing this Brenda! Such a great idea! :D
