Tiger Lily Ponders The Universe
March 9, 2020

Who would have known that there is actually a day to celebrate meatballs? But like other days that celebrate foods, there are too many great ways to eat them to smash them all into one day. If you read on, you'll find meatballs in general, meatballs in Italian, meatballs in Swedish... even vegan meatballs. Something for everyone.
Volume 2: Boo!

Halloween is coming. The season brings out the best and worst of tourists and Chelsea locals. While juggling business issues, Annie plays host to her mother and step-father. They are booked into the KaliKo Inn for an extended visit, along with their “darling” cat. Tiger Lily and her siblings refer to him as the dreaded Uncle Honey Bear.

Add to the mix a group of guests in town for a murder mystery cruise. The murder mystery play is extended over three nights in various venues in town and on the pleasure craft, The Escape. The mystery participants are not what they seem; the mix of additional guests at the Inn are a bit mysterious as well.

As Annie and her friends prepare for the town’s charitable Halloween party, Annie’s not-so-very-good friend Geraldine plans a competing fund raiser, one to which only the upper crust of the town are invited.

While the humans go about their lives blissfully unencumbered by thoughts of crime, their companions are ever alert to the dangers around them. In the end, will the companions become the heroes?
Writing Tip #4

Write as often as you can

Even if all you’re writing is a paragraph, it’s better than not writing at all. And if you can’t add on to your book for whatever reason (maybe a lack of an outline?) then write something else. Here are a few ways you can utilize this writing tip by writing something else:

  • Write a short story
  • Start a new novel
  • Write a poem
  • Skip to a new section in your book to write
  • Write about your life in prose to practice descriptions

The point is to write as often as you can because the more you write, the better you will get. It will help you pinpoint weaknesses in your writing and you’ll notice improvements as you write.
