Completed book shout out!! Loved this fast paced fun romcom. Staring the hilarious Charlie.  When she gets the idea that men prefer women they think are taken she decides to prove this theory by staging her own hen party.

Hi everyone!! 
          
          In case anyone missed I am taking a little uploading break. Trying to actually take a writing break but I keep working on stuff offline anyway haha. 
          
          But anyway - I’ll be on a break for  this week and resume posting around the 14-16th somewhere in there. (I’ll try and update both stories at that time too) 
          
          I have about 10-15 chaps remaining for FOTF. 
          
          For TSE I have no idea I need to do a layout lol.

@melissadyb i feel like I can bounce from idea to idea just fine as long as I haven’t published it yet, for some reason once I do I feel so much pressure about it and struggle haha.
            
            So that’s why after this I will try something different and work offline and wait to start the publishing when it’s nearly done or done.
            
            No need to sprint take your time!! Haha it won’t be going anywhere for a looong time but I do plan to publish FOTF with a sequal like a duolgy at some point!

FOTF should be updated tomorrow at some point, maybe tonight if I can get motivated to edit it. 
          
          I’ll catch up reads today too!! ^^ 
          
          TDE- still on hold but I am full speed ahead on finishing FOTF! So it’ll be back to updates soon! 
          
          I have a sequel planned for FOTF but I am not going to upload it as I go. So, once it’s done or nearly done I’ll just publish it all once and it’ll be here just  until I’m ready to self publish both books. ^^

Hi everyone! 
          It was a busy-busy weekend! 
          
          I will try and get to all my books on my current reading list this week sometime. 
          
          The next chapter of Flames of the forgotten is super  close but I have to finish it and edit it so hopefully this week at some point. ❤️ 
          
          If you’re looking for something new and different check this one out. It’s a survival/romance adventure about two young adults trapped in the woods together.

Hi all! 
          
          Hope everyone had a great week! 
          
          I’ve been doing more reading than writing this week, because I have a few books i’m doing arcs for that debut next week. 
          
          Then it’s my husband’s birthday this weekend so my next chapter will probably be posted sometime early next week.

Hey everyone! 
          
          If you love supporting indie authors, give my Tiktok a follow - heidimaewahlberg 
          
          I do indie book reviews and arc reads on there quite a bit and find some absolute gems that I recommend! 
          
          I share my reviews on Tiktok, Instagram, Facebook and Amazon/goodreads. 
          
          If you have a published book out there and want it read, and reviewed on social media, please reach out! 
          
          I do these if you are willing to send me a free copy of your book. 
          
          You can even save my video review  to use as your own little promo tool for reels and such. 
          
          (If it ends up being a book I do not like, I don’t publicly review it but still promote it) 
          
          Feel to free to reach out to me on Instagram or TikTok for this. ❤️

Also little update for you all. 
          
          Flames of the Forgotten has reached the mid-point of the story, so as I am writing this last half of the story I’m not going to try and pull my attention away from Sammy to sneak a Rissa chapter in.
          
          So…. I’ll be right back at The Solo Dating when FOTF is totally done. And then it’ll have my full attention. 
          
          I’d say I have about 20 chapters or so left to write for FOTF, and it’s been going fairly quickly. But I won’t promise an exact finishing time frame  just yet.

I’m rooting you on!!!

Hi everyone! 
          
          Here is a little writing tip! 
          
          When you are all done writing for the day and ready to put your manuscript away. First, start your next sentence. 
          
          Only start it! Leave it unfinished, but it gives your brain that queue that something is left undone and makes you want to get back to it faster.

@creativemind89 it really works gives you a spot to start instead of a blank slate.

Thank you for this! I’m struggling with writers block, and the only way I can seem to fix it is to keep bouncing back and forth between my different books I’m writing, but it’s getting overwhelming…

@HeidiCarroll I do this sometimes or I write a note about the next chapter.

I knew this was going to happen, LOL
          
          So, this song has me in a vice grip, and I am thinking of a story about a woman who has been in decade-long situationship - with major ups and downs and other relationships that happen and burned because of this thing in her life.
