Pickle Licker: A Quirky Christmas Novella

He had it. I wanted it.
And that’s how it ended up in my mouth.
Oh, get your mind out of the gutter, will you? I’m not talking about that!
All I did was give it a little lick. Okay, fine, I may have shoved the whole thing in my face. Not my finest moment, but hey, the guy deserved it. At least now Saul Stryker knows I exist.
Why is he always hanging around here anyway? Smelling like bottled sin, looking way too hot while he casually raids my fridge. Just because his business partner is my roommate, Stryker acts like he owns the place. Well, he can’t just help himself to whatever he wants, whenever he wants it!
What am I, the invisible girl?
That’s it – bring on the coal, I’m done being nice!

Eat the Elephant: How to Write (and Finish!) Your Book One Bite at a Time

How do you write a novel? Just like eating an elephant. One bite at a time.

There are a lot of books on individual aspects of writing, but how do you translate that to your own work? How do you know if you are applying it correctly? Creating a novel is a huge undertaking. How do you juggle the forest and the trees?

After having shared this method with many writers at every level of writing skills over my fifteen years as an editor and an author, what I’ve discovered is that the Novel Blueprint method covered in Eat the Elephant addresses these common problems.

  • Each time I write a book it feels like I’m starting from scratch. How do I write a book without reinventing the wheel each time?
  • There are so many pieces to juggle. Where do I even begin?
  • I can’t finish a book. I get partway through and then I get stuck.
  • How do I write faster and better?
  • There’s a lot to remember about writing a book. How do I make sure I hit all the important things?
  • How do I write a book that readers rave about and tell their friends to buy?

“How did you get this number?” Those were the first words Jill Biden spoke to U.S. senator Joe Biden when he called her out of the blue to ask her on a date.

Growing up, Jill had wanted two things: a marriage like her parents’—strong, loving, and full of laughter—and a career. An early heartbreak had left her uncertain about love, until she met Joe. But as they grew closer, Jill faced difficult questions: How would politics shape her family and professional life? And was she ready to become a mother to Joe’s two young sons?

She soon found herself falling in love with her three “boys,” learning to balance life as a mother, wife, educator, and political spouse. Through the challenges of public scrutiny, complicated family dynamics, and personal losses, she grew alongside her family, and she extended the family circle at every turn: with her students, military families, friends and staff at the White House, and more.

And that can only lead to trouble…

River has his own methods for coping. Chasing adventure means always moving forward. Nobody’s ever made him want to stand still—until Griffin.
