WRITING TIP TUESDAY!⠀ 📚📚📚⠀ Get through a draft as quickly as possible. Hard to know the shape of the thing until you have a draft. Literally, when I wrote the last page of my first draft of Lincoln’s Melancholy I thought, Oh, shit, now I get the shape of this. But I had wasted years, literally years, writing and re-writing the first third to first half. The old writer’s rule applies: Have the courage to write badly. – Joshua Wolf Shenk⠀ 📚📚📚⠀ #amwriting #amediting #ampublishing #publisher #publish #publishyourbook #editor #editing #writingtiptuesday #writingtips⠀ #hurnpublications

Monday Book Review ⠀ Whiskey in a Teacup by Reese Witherspoon⠀ 📚📚⠀ Before we delve into it, here's a friendly reminder that author's NEED you to review and rate their books!⠀ Help them out!⠀ 📚📚📚⠀ Instantly, I was smitten with Whiskey in a Teacup. Reading it is like cheerfully walking down Familiar Lane; pleasant and homey with an emphasis on family and the good times. It reminds me of a single volume of an annual subscription of Southern Living Magazine through the life and eyes of Reese Witherspoon. ⠀ She gives family recipes (which I always appreciate) and party menu lists for year round celebratory occasions. Do I want to have a Kentucky Derby Party complete with pretty dresses and oversized hats? Yes, I do. And I want to serve Reese’s suggested Mint Juleps and Chocolate Derby Pecan Pie. ⠀ She includes entertaining anecdotes from her childhood and endearing memories of her grandparents, mom, brother, family and friends. She made me want to put on my pearl necklace and dress up my dogs. ⠀ Reese had me reminiscing about my own grandparents’ huge garden and my grandpa’s work habits, from dawn to dusk even after retirement. In such a BFF kind of way, Reese takes her personal sharing even further- by suggesting music play lists for events like a “Southern Party” and road trips. ⠀ She gives instructions for how to use hot rollers, and diagrams for how to set casual, as well as, formal table settings. ⠀ She gives hostess tips, attendee advice, flea market strategies, book reading suggestions, and gift ideas for a variety of occasions.⠀ If you have Southern Roots or even want to know what that means, give this book a read.⠀ 📚📚📚⠀ #readinglist #amreading #amwriting #learning #writers #writing #authors #books #booksy #booksbooksbooks #readingtime #hurnpublications⠀ #hurnpublishing #publisherswhocare #nonfiction #foreverlearning⠀ #authorsofinstagram #writersofinstagram #bookreview #mondayreview #whiskeyinateacup #southernmama #southernliving #alwaysthehostess

Food Inspired By Books. ⠀ #Sundayfunday⠀ A Moveable Feast by Ernest Hemingway.⠀ 📚📚📚⠀ The entire book is a celebration of the art of eating, and nearly every page is rife with dinner ideas. One memorable trip in Hemingway’s A Moveable Feast includes meals of roast chicken, a dish that demands mastery.⠀ 📚📚📚⠀ Whole Roasted Chicken⠀ 1 (3 1/2- to 4-lb.) cut-up whole chicken ⠀ 1/3 cup olive oil⠀ 3 teaspoons kosher salt⠀ 2 (8.5-oz.) pouches ready-to-serve rice ⠀ 1 pound fresh broccoli ⠀ (8-oz.) packages fresh cremini mushrooms, stems removed⠀ Step 1⠀ Preheat oven to 425°. Rub chicken pieces with olive oil and salt.⠀ Step 2⠀ Spread ready-to-serve rice in an even layer in a heavy-duty aluminum foil-lined sheet pan, breaking up clumps⠀ Step 3⠀ Cut broccoli into florets. Toss together broccoli florets, 2 Tbsp. oil, 1/2 tsp. salt in a medium bowl; spread in an even layer over rice. Toss together mushrooms and remaining olive oil, salt, and spread over broccoli and rice.⠀ Step 4⠀ Place chicken pieces, skin side up, 1 1/2 inches apart on broccoli and mushrooms.⠀ Step 5⠀ Bake at 425° for about 1 hour or until a meat thermometer inserted in thickest portion of chicken registers 170°. Let stand 5 minutes before serving.⠀ 📚📚📚⠀ #readinglist #amreading #amwriting #learning #writers #writing #authors #books #booksy #booksbooksbooks #readingtime #hurnpublications⠀ #hurnpublishing #publisherswhocare #enjoybeingyourself⠀ #authorsofinstagram #writersofinstagram #foodinspiredbybooks #food #recipes #moveablefeast #ernesthemmingway #bookfood #southernliving

READING LIST FRIDAY!⠀ This week we're highlighting:⠀ 21 Lessons for the 21st Century by Yuval Noah Harari⠀ @yuval_noah_harari⠀ 📚📚📚⠀ In Sapiens, he explored our past. In Homo Deus, he looked to our future. Now, one of the most innovative thinkers on the planet turns to the present to make sense of today's most pressing issues.⠀ How do computers and robots change the meaning of being human? How do we deal with the epidemic of fake news? Are nations and religions still relevant?
