My Writing Process blog Tour

I was invited to take part in the 'My Writing Process' blog by two different people! The gorgeous Suzie Tullett and Elle Field.

So here's how it goes: I have to answer these questions and then invite three other author bloggers to do the same!

1) What am I working on? 

I'm actually working on a movie! Yes, a movie! Squeal! It's called The Eye of Praxos and is based on my Morgan Sisters novels. Although it's a wonderful experience, it's definitely time consuming and is keeping me from working on my other two projects at the moment, which are: the next book in The Morgan Sisters series and my second Chick Lit book! I have so many ideas going around in my head for more novels but I need to get the movie finished first so I can give them my all :)

2) How does my work differ from others of its genre? 

I pride myself on writing books that are appropriate for any audience, young and old alike. I avoid using explicit words, sex scenes, unnecessary violence. You won't find anything like that in my books! 

3) Why do I write what I do? 

I write YA and chick lit because I LOVE to read them myself. They are two of my absolute favourite genres, taking me away from the real world. I just love them!

4) How does my writing process work?

When I'm working on a novel, I have to give myself daily deadlines, otherwise I would just procrastinate and not get anything done! I'm terrible with distraction - especially the internet! So, I'll work backwards, calculating how many words I need to get done per week and then break it up into five (I don't work on the weekends) and then I don't have a problem :)

I'm inviting three wonderful peeps to take part:

Bio: "For me, talking to readers who love my stories and characters as much as I do is a dream come true. NOTHING is more exhilarating or inspiring. The author writes, yes, but I honestly believe it is the reader, that breathes life and soul into the characters in a book. Without the reader and their wonderful imaginations, stories and characters are words arranged neatly on a page waiting to be born, waiting to be loved. To the reader, my characters and I thank you." Patti Roberts.
PATTI ROBERTS was born in Brisbane Australia but soon moved to Darwin in the Northern Territory. Her son Luke was born in 1980. Patti now lives in Cairns, Queensland where she is writing the Paradox Series of books. Patti is currently working on a new teen novel, Witchwood Estate, which is being published as episodic, short story fiction.
