Posting Videos on The Idea Girl Says and Idea Girl Consulting Wordpress -Linda Randall

I've been busy with my boxes all week and I'm still not done!

Its going to take me a few days to get my place in order but once it's done I'll be able to concentrate on writing the munroe series again.

I will also be working on the calamity girl manuscript and posting more chapters online for everyone to read.

I don't seem to get any feedback from the novels.

I was hoping that people could tell me if they like the stories or if its just not their type of book.

Writer's Cramp - Submit That Manuscript to a Publisher - Stress!!!

Now I just need a boost of confidence.  I finished my manuscript for my first novel called The Munroe Mansion - The Beginning.  Now I just have to do a synopsis, a query letter and find some confidence.

I'm terrified that someone's going to tell me that I suck as a writer.  Or I'll hear that i'm not experienced enough and I need to get an education or something like that.

Imagine having writers cramp for months and months, finally typing it all up, spending hundreds of hours on a project then you come to a complete standstill because of fear?

What have I got to lose other than some pride?

I know, I'm supposed to be persistent in what I do, believe in myself, and then take that first step towards my dream of being a published writer.

I've been published on the internet for many years and it didn't cause me any undue stress.

So why am I having so much trouble with this?

A feeling of panic and dread at the outcome of all this?

I feel that I'm a great writer, I just don't know if anyone else will feel the same. :)

I have posted some info about all this on The Idea Girl Says - words of wisdom for those who are more knowledgeable about this kind of thing.

The Munroe Series

The Munroe Mansion Chapter One Revision

I've been working this week on revising my novel and I've written two new chapters and added 3 more characters.

In this story Duvall Marchand is a happy widow. He never really loved his wife, he just liked the money that she made for him.

His wife Blaise was a Fashion Designer that lived in Paris France, back in the early 1900's. She assumed that when she passed away that her fortunes would go to her nieces Lorraine and Elsa Picard.

Duvall informs her that everything is in his name, and it's his fortune and he refuses to share any of it with the girls when their Aunt and parents are tragically killed in a train accident.

Lorraine is desperate to find a way to support herself and her sister. She happens on a picture of Anthony Atkins in the Canada Gazette and formulates a plan to meet him, seduce him and have him marry her.

She writes to her Uncle Duvall requesting assistance and funds to travel to Canada. Her Uncle decides to take the girls sailing on his ship The White Star and intends to drop them off in Canada and never see them again.

However what the girls do not know is that he has a taste for young women...

That is the story line I'm working on :)

I've only posted the first six chapters of the book (my first rough draft) and when I finally am finished the story changes and is better every time I do this! :)

Some of the books in the Munroe Series just have loads of lovely pictures about my character and setting profiles :)

You can follow me as I write the books, develop the plots, setting and characters.

You can read the first six chapters of The Munroe Mansion here... (story is subject to change soon!)

The SS America Book Two of The Munroe Series

I have just published the first few chapters of The SS America - Book Two in The Munroe Series. This is a Mystery Historical Romance and part of a series of Twelve Books written by: Linda Michelle Randall.

I've also published a few chapters of The Munroe Mansion - Book One in the Munroe Series. This is a Mystery Historical Romance and part of a series of Twelve Books written by: Linda Michelle Randall.

Idea Girl Consulting - The SS America - Book Two of The Munroe Series. This is The Trip To Canada: How it all Began.

It's the year 1903, Goderich Lafleur and Brandon Deere are tired of London,England and decide they want to start a new life in Canada.

Goderich is tired of women throwing themselves at him and Brandon is a ladies man.

They board the SS America and meet Marion White.

Goderich and Brandon plan to compete for her heart until they meet Louise Picard, then the chase is on to capture her heart too!

Goderich Lafleur is indifferent to women, but Louise Picard and Marion White think they can capture his heart.

Patricia Totenmyer Rosewood Is Louise Picard's Chaperone, her goal is to find a wealthy husband for her charge. She decides that Louise should pursue Brandon Deere who is smitten with the lovely Marion White.

Marion White has a secret, she's on her way to Canada to be courted by a much older man named Count Frederick Fontaine. Her parents plan to arrange a marriage with the Count to secure their future as they have no fortune of their own. Marion really doesn't want to marry the Count because he is too old for her, she hopes to find someone younger and more suitable for her before she reaches Canada.

The Munroe Series

I've been busy working on The Munroe Mansion manuscript, typing and editing the new beginning to the book - The Mansion on the Hill from The Munroe Series.

It's one-hundred times better than the original script that was posted. The characters are better developed and the story line is more intense.

It was fun writing about the grandparents and developing a whole new story. This book originally started in the year 2018 (the grandchildren) but then I stepped back to the late 1800's for fun.

This explains why The Mansion on the Hill has tragedies, and why it's haunted by ghosts.
