Monday Motivations; What is My Foundation Made Of?
Hello friends and welcome to another willful week of writing. I’m thinking a lot this morning about why I succeed at nailing my goals on some days and why I crash and burn on others. What components make up a “good” day and what pitfalls appear on the “bad” ones? How can I build a… Continue reading

Fiction Friday; Should I Read A Deadly Education?
Hello friends, and welcome to another edition of Fiction Friday, my blog series about all things books! That I didn’t write. Not that I’ve written any. Anyway.

WIP Wednesday; Coming Around to Advice I Once Abhored
Hello friends! I am grateful to be back after a sudden but violent head cold knocked me on my ass earlier this week.

Reasons I DNF This Book: Of Blood and Fire
Hello everyone. For today’s Fiction Friday I am reviving an old review series in honor of those books I tried but just couldn’t power through.

WIP Wednesday; The Eff It Stage

Trope-Day; Dragon Knight
It’s Tuesday again, friends, which means it’s Trope-Day here on Just Another Struggling Writer. Tropes, in my view, are the building blocks of all stories, and while some are abused more than others, every single trope can be reinvented or reimagined into something fresh and exciting. It’s all in how you write! This week we’ve… Continue reading

Monday Motivations; Writing is Exercising
Hello everyone and welcome to another wobbly week of writing. Friends, I’ll be honest. I’m having a hard time thinking about writing today. Which feels weird, because normally it’s the primary subject in my brain, but for some reason… I’m just not feeling it today. In fact, just typing up this blog post feels like… Continue reading

Abandoning Self-Rejection and Taking Up Gardening Instead
Hello friends and welcome to another inner-edited edition of Just Another Struggling Writer. I’m just another struggling writer. One of my most annoying traits as a writer is that I do my best brainstorming when I’m lying in bed trying to go to sleep. Due to my insomnia I am very aware of not looking… Continue reading
About Me
Kerry Share’s love for writing started, as it so often does, as a love of reading at an early age. At age 11 she wrote her first short story, a Harry Potter knockoff of dubious quality, and her love for creative expression was born. Throughout her teen years she continued to foster that passion through derivative work, and at 23 she turned her eye to original fiction.
Now in her thirties, having taken a break from creative endeavors to cope with an ever changing life and landscape, she is determined to make her dream of a writing career reality.
