Copyright 2023 by Melissa Fischler Hi all! Rebel and Protect is all set for its June 29th release! I’m looking for 4 ARC readers to read the proof, let me know what they think, and check for any errors my team may have missed. I will mail proof copies next Wednesday (June 13th). ARC readers… Continue reading ARC Readers Needed
Rebel and Protect
Last night I finished writing Rebel and Protect and today I posted the very last Kindle Vella episode in the series. Which means that in 30 days I can publish it as a book (Kindle Vella rules). The 30 days actually works out perfectly because while Lena and I edited it as I published in… Continue reading Rebel and Protect
Unanswered Prayers
I’m a big believer that the vibes you send out to the universe are the vibes you’ll get back. I also believe the universe sends you signs. This week has been an epic trust fall between the universe and myself. Somehow I believe it’ll all work out in my favor, and that it’ll confirm that… Continue reading Unanswered Prayers
Funny of the Week
Sometimes when I’m stressed out I daydream about being a stand up comedian and the jokes I’d tell. This was my favorite one from yesterday (it actually happened): I told Darcy today to quit sassin me. Then I gave him an entire lecture about how he can’t always get what he wants, and that I… Continue reading Funny of the Week
Writing and Mental Health
The past few weeks have been a whirlwind. I found a large growth in my upper thoracic region, and they thought maybe it was cancer. I received a cancer diagnosis, which freaked me out, then they determined through a CT scan it was probably not cancer, but they found some wonkiness on my bones and… Continue reading Writing and Mental Health
Update on Writing Projects
Last night I released a surprise mid-week episode of Rebel and Protect on Kindle Vella! I am a bit ahead this week on writing, and decided I wanted to share. I also signed up to do the Third Thursday Art Walks in Saranac Lake over the summer, and would like to have the book version… Continue reading Update on Writing Projects
Writing and Real Life
I think we are ruining the Earth. It's a major theme in Rebel and Protect and when I originally thought of the story ten years ago, it was more a story about what happens when the Earth dies and less a romance. Now it has a bit more romance, because I wanted to write a… Continue reading Writing and Real Life
Doing Mr. Rochester Dirty
Disclaimer: This is part book review, part rant. There are spoilers Book Review: The Wife Upstairs I read The Wife Upstairs earlier this week. It infuriated me. I have not stopped thinking about how mad I am about how dirty she did Mr. Rochester and I can't decide if I'm deflecting something, or if I… Continue reading Doing Mr. Rochester Dirty
Why Harry Potter?
I love Harry Potter. I mean, not so much JK Rowling, but definitely Harry Potter. Which is kind of odd because I was just slightly "too old" to be reading Harry Potter when it came out. People love to bash adults who enjoy Harry Potter. I get it; it can seem childish. If something makes… Continue reading Why Harry Potter?
Self-help Books and Boundaries
This week has been weird. I have an ear infection. I had convinced myself it was allergies, so I kept putting off going to the doctor. I finally went to the doctor Thursday after I was up all night in serious pain. The prescribed ear drops, and I was skeptical at first, but they really… Continue reading Self-help Books and Boundaries
