My Library




I always collect books faster than I can read them. Which means I might be sitting on some writer self help gold for someone else. The link below goes to my Libib library inventory page so you can browse all the books on my shelf for writing craft and non-fiction. Some I have read and love, and others I can't recommend yet as I haven't read them. But if a book sticks out that draws you in, usually that means it's your gut telling you to read that one. Follow the magic. 

Happy reading and writing!

It's Not Rebecca Thirstin's Blog, but Rebecca Tynes is Pretty Darn Close

 Hi! Welcome to my blog. Here you will find a collection of my thoughts on numerous topics surrounding the art of reading and writing books. Mostly romance books because that is what I write and what I love to read. You may also find some miscellaneous topics on the blog as well such as health/fitness and hobbies I’m into. I have created some helpful tabs for you at the top if you are on your own journey of writing and publishing as well. I wrote them for the me a few years ago who wanted an everything checklist. The best books on writing craft that have changed my life are also under my recommended reads tab for you.  Enjoy! Why did I choose to start a blog in 2023? I kept thinking about how I wanted a safe and cozy space to have an online presence in that was 100% positive and in my control.  A place that didn't leave my mind spinning and have me feeling bad like when I get on social media. A place to share longform content, and more information for writers. Social medi...

My Top 3 Writing Craft Books Of 2024

Hey writers! Today I'm sharing the books that I've found most helpful to me this year on my writing journey. Before I read these books and actually learned some real writing rules, tips, and how to construct a fictional story, my drafts were all over the place.  They were very disconnected and had no point to them. I didn't even know the basics like character goals, motivation, and conflict. And I learned that all fiction IS conflict.  So here are the top 3 books I've found that made a difference in my writing this year. They now sit permanently on my desk. These books taught me the very basics and gave me a road map to craft a story that finally had a purpose, cohesion, and most of all, conflict.  I have these linked in my Recommended Reads Page at the top of the blog. I hope these help you on your journey as much as they have me!   1 .) Passionate Ink by Angela Knight - The new edition is now available, but if you can get your hands on the old edition, I recom...

What Sparks a Story Idea in Me

A common question writers get is "Where do you get all these ideas from?" The truth is, it's different for every writer. Everyone's brain is different, and the way we create is all different. Which is one of the reasons it makes this writing journey so magical and beautiful.  It's also a reason there is room at the table for every single writer. Because no one can write a book exactly like you can. They will all be unique. Even if 10 writers are given the same story to write and the same characters, plot points, etc. You will still have 10 different books because everyone's brain will take a different creative journey to connect those plot points and get to "the end."  Today I'm sharing a glimpse into my process. How I get story ideas. Other authors may get ideas these ways too and others won’t. There is no wrong process in the ideation stage. It's whatever works for you. On that note, I want to share a quotes from Meghan March's Creativ...
