Fiction Writing: Co-Authoring with your best friend

We now have five books under our belt so clearly co-authoring works for us. We were friends before so perhaps that's why the collaboration works. Quite honestly, I couldn't tell you - but I do know that it's not always as easy as that. 

Last year, I was asked to collaborate on a script with another writer and it was a total disaster. I didn't take into account the other's writer's attachment to his words so when I re-wrote parts of the script the writer was incensed. Our partnership didn't last long!

Clare and I have been writing together for so long that it has become second nature. We like the way each other writes and we never take offence when a sentence or a chunk of writing gets striked-out. I will often litter a draft with 'xxx' (my blanks when I'm not sure what I want to say) and Clare will come along and fill in those blanks. We have long ago left our individual egos at the door and embraced our collective ego. 

Perhaps, it works because we see the book through the same pair of glasses and we love the energy and laughter it sparks off.

Revisiting annoying characters

When Life Goes Pop is the third book we wrote together. Several characters from the previous books make a reappearance in this book, including the awful Kimberly Roberts.  She deserves a book in her own right if she wasn't so irritatingly self-obsessed. I fear readers would hate her too much to read on. Kimberly also shows up in book four, My Disorganised Life. 

Book extract.

NEW FEARS FOR KIMBERLY ROBERTS when it was widely reported that Alex Canty has sought a restraining order against his ex-girlfriend.  In recent months Kimberly seemed healthier, happier, after her stint at the Betty Ford Clinic. After a few traumatic years her life seemed to be finally on the up. Sadly, Grazia has learned that she is still struggling to come to terms with the fact that her relationship with Alex Canty is over.

The less Poppy has to do with Kimberly the better besides she's got her own problems, an unplanned pregnancy - and for the love of a patchy memory, who's the heck is the daddy?

I often wonder if readers are offended with the use of swear words in fiction and perhaps finding it at the beginning of a novel would turn them off. It felt natural and necessary that Poppy would curse here, she certainly hadn't planned on getting pregnant and to her defence she was in a state of shock. 

As writers we believe that the use of profanity in speech or writing is effective when used sparingly.

KICK-ASS FEMALE - doing it for themselves

Fighting Love is the second book we wrote together and to think we now have four books - five - when our latest offering is published or self-published. I am so very proud at how far we've come together. 

Even though we've been through our own personal ups and downs, there's never been a moment when we wanted to stop writing together. We share a passion and a vision and when we doubt ourselves we know how to hold one another other up. So big up to my writing partner, WHYLE-Y SMILE-Y

If you are new to Nina Whyle, perhaps you'll like the sound of, Fighting Love.

Harriet is a one-woman fighting force and certainly not about to succumb to the charms of A-list actor, Alex Canty.

Some words from Fighting Love.

BARCELONA IS FANTASTIC - ART, FREEDOM OF EXPRESSION and SPANISH :)

You may have seen our many posts about terrorist attacks on innocent people and freedom, so we'll make this one short.

Just love Barcelona

Extremism is ignorance.
Ignorance is not power.
Power is tolerance and acceptance.

Amazing place

Now really someone debunk that squatter in the WhiteHouse, he's not helping anything or anybody, he is also extreme. All of you just F-off and fight amongst yourselves, the rest of the world is not interested in your demented rhetoric.
We love Barcelona, and are thinking of you all.

This review is from: My DisOrganised Life: Sometimes things have to go really wrong before they can go right (Kindle Edition)

Love Love - cringe but only because your toes are literally curling for this poor character and you are totally empathising with her in this new modern world we all face. A great read brilliantly written can't wait to read the next novel from this fab author!

The Little Yellow Book's Adventures - Part 3

The Little Yellow Book had a busy day

                                                        So wandered down all the stairs.

By the last step Chapter 1 was really Thirsty...

'A pretty little cocktail with a yellow primrose would suit me now,' the Little Yellow Book thought to itself. And then to it's delight.... 'how delicious, they read my mind and some pages. All these flowers just for me'? The Little Yellow Book fluttered it's pages. I love this place and all the pretty things.

A luxury menu - Divine

The Little Yellow Book was tired all the way up to Chapter 9, what an exciting day. All to do now was to order some squashiness.

It was then Chapter 10 woke up and took out the new manuscript....

 'Shaken not stirred,' bellowed Book 5 clambering to get out of the bag, 'you can't go to sleep now we haven't got an agent for me yet'!

But The Little Yellow Book fell fast asleep as Book 5 went on the rampage.

Book 5 went "Danny Torrence"

Found a tricycle and peddled back like Trump's press team.

The first manuscript (Bk5) said

'Show my the way to the next Whiskey Bar, don't ask why.'

Book 5 edited itself that night!

The Adventures of The Little Yellow Book - Part 2

The Little Yellow Book learnt all about stones and water

 Bus rail, goes with the colour scheme!

+  surprise fact Nicholas Cage lives somewhere round here... I hope he wears a bonnet too

The Little Yellow Book looked small on the Georgian Window

The Adventures of the Little Yellow Book

Where am I?

It started on a train...

So naturally got peckish for some yummy Greek food

We thought to take a brolly or 2, as it is English Summer after all!

Our writing heroine also seasoned here.

Ladies with Bonnets, awaiting carriages...

GUDRUN - OUR LOVABLE SEX THERAPIST - My DisOrganised Life

‘Vel-kommen Eve. I zee you have been to shops. Very good.’

I immediately take a slug of port.

‘Vill you show me?’

I hold out the bag expecting Gudrun to take it from me.

‘Vhy don’t you take it out and show me.’

My cheeks burn as I reach inside the bag and pull out the big black box. A pink ‘R’ and the words

‘RAMPANT RABBIT The Neon One’ glare at us. I hold up the box.

‘Vel done.’ Gudrun hands me a pair of scissors. 

Find the G-spot with Gudrun
