Your Mileage May Vary: Queen of the Tearling
Hello all and welcome to an unscheduled edition of Your Mileage May Vary, the blog series where I talk about books I actually finished. This week I veered off the reading schedule I laid out for myself at the beginning of the year, and picked up something not on my list at all: Queen of… Continue reading

Monday Motivations; The Grind
Hello friends and welcome to another fun an exciting week of writing. At least, I wish it was exciting. Actually, today I’m finding myself a little caught up in the doldrums of the daily grind. When sitting myself down to write this post I found that I didn’t have much in the way of motivation,… Continue reading

Character Driven Fantasy
Hello friends and welcome to another self-reflective and, may I say, stylish edition of Just Another Struggling Writer. I’m just another struggling writer. This last weekend I finally conceded defeat to the book I had been attempting to read for the last five or six weeks, a big name book by a big name author… Continue reading

Monday Motivations; TMI
Hello friends. Last week was exceptionally trying for me. Not long after writing that blog post about rising above the difficulties I had been facing at my increasingly stressful job, I had the opportunity to put my newfound determination to the test. Suffice it to say I failed, and was afforded a discomfiting look at… Continue reading

Monday Motivations; Delayed and Decluttering
Good morning friends and welcome to a slightly belated Monday Motivations. I woke up yesterday in a bit of a slump, though I hesitate to even call it that. It was more of a… mundane feeling. I didn’t have anything interesting to say, I thought, and though I spent some time staring at this blog… Continue reading

O Story, Where Art Thou
Friends, it has been a week of ups and downs. My mental health has been all over the place, it’s been insanely busy at the day job, I’m stressing hard about sending my kids to public school in a state where masks have been forbidden from being mandated. But it hasn’t been all bad. I… Continue reading

Monday Motivations; No Rest For the Working Writer
I’ll admit it folks: I was pretty darn tempted to forgo blogging today (or this week, or even this month). After all, with no active freelance project to inform my writing needs for the next four or five weeks, what could I possibly have to talk about? Well, as it happens, I’m still a working… 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.
