Welcome to my blog

As a writer, my first area of interest is obviously my books, but for my blog I will try to address different writing issues or provide my own tips when it comes to writing or self-publishing.

My blog also includes shout-outs to and recommendations for other blogs or websites, book reviews or recommendation, and a few posts sparked by nothing but an area of interest at the moment or occasionally a complaint or five.

A Kick in the Pants

I need one.

Entering one of my novels in the Amazon Breakthrough Novel Awards has made me lazy when it comes to writing. I polished off "Kingdom of the Light," but other than that I've hardly put a pen to paper for anything other than grading or lesson planning.

I'm slipping.

I need to get back to work. I need to work on the sequel to my ABNA entry. I need to finish off The Bodyguard so that I can post it here for you to read.

I need to write to get my balance back.

I need a kick in the pants.

    My name is J.R. McGinnity, I am a former English teacher with a passion for writing fantasy novels with strong female leads.

    My time is spent immersed in books (reading or writing), hiking when the Midwest weather allows, and watching seasons of old TV shows.
