Short Story: The Yellow Dress

September 6, 2020September 23, 2020 ~ Crissi Langwell ~ Leave a comment

“Edison McIntyre,” he said in his thick accent, affecting my heartbeat as he clasped my hand in his. The amused squint of his eyes didn’t help, our secret history flowing between us, unbeknownst to Mr. Finnigan. “Charles has told me all about you,” Sonny continued. “I look forward to us working together." ...

Answering the hard questions about life as a writer

There are the usual questions readers ask authors. But what about the hard ones? I answer those questions here.

Numbered, a dystopian romance: Meet Noelle & Ryder

December 3, 2018May 7, 2019 ~ Crissi Langwell ~ Leave a comment

My current WIP is Numbered, a dystopian romance, set to release next year (date TBD). While we wait, I thought I'd introduce you to the main characters of this novel. Everyone, meet Noelle and Ryder. The year is 2050, and technology has advanced so that people know the exact date of their death and how … Continue reading Numbered, a dystopian romance: Meet Noelle & Ryder

My writing goals for 2019

December 2, 2018December 2, 2018 ~ Crissi Langwell ~ Leave a comment

What are my writing goals for 2019? First, let me share this year’s goals. It was NOT so much to write, but to rest, reset, and learn. I think I’ve done a killer job doing that. One of the ways I’ve done that is by reading A LOT. I’ve read across genres, good writing, bad … Continue reading My writing goals for 2019

Numbered ~ a novel ~ coming soon!

If you follow me on social media (and you should: Facebook, Instagram, Twitter), you are already aware that my novel writing hiatus has ended and I'm working on my next book. I realized today that I haven't actually written that here, which is just awful! So here you go: I'M WRITING ANOTHER BOOK! I'm really … Continue reading Numbered ~ a novel ~ coming soon!

Pregnant with a story

December 16, 2016December 16, 2016 ~ Crissi Langwell ~ 1 Comment

For the past few weeks, I’ve been struggling a little with this next book I’m writing in the Road to Hope series. As you recall, I wrote the second book during November (for NaNoWriMo), and realized there was so much more to the story I was telling. I ended the second book with a brilliant … Continue reading Pregnant with a story

Prepping for NaNoWriMo

October 13, 2016October 13, 2016 ~ Crissi Langwell ~ 1 Comment

Every November, hundreds of thousands of writers commit to a month of solitude for a national (even worldwide) phenomenon known as National Novel Writing Month, aka NaNoWriMo. The goal is to have a 50,000-word story at the end of 30 days. I have taken part in NaNoWriMo since 2010, and it’s a big reason why … Continue reading Prepping for NaNoWriMo
