Top ten writing bloopers-

I have Miss Nicole Zoltack here today talking about her top ten writing bloopers while writing her latest book, Black Hellbore, set to release October 21st.

10. They played a victorious game of tug-of-war

What I meant to write: They played a vicious game of tug-of-war

There can only be one victor in every vicious game of tug-of-war.

9. He closeted his eyes

What I meant to write: He closed his eyes

I don’t even know.

8. Circling his shoulders

What I meant to write: Squaring his shoulders

How did I pass kindergarten? I don’t know my shapes!

7. The shin sun

What I meant to write: The shining sun

Did you know the sun has legs?

6. None had lasted more than sex months.

What I meant to write: None had lasted more than six months.

Considering I write sweet romances, yeah, no sex.

5. No one dead.

What I meant to write: No one did.

Nope, Black Hellebore isn’t a zombie book.

4. His headbeat raced

What I meant to write: His heartbeat raced

When your headbeat starts racing, you better hurry up and catch it!

3. He had given the old woman his last sense.

What I meant to write: He had given the old woman his last cents.

Doesn’t make sense to give someone your lasts cents.

2. Nicholas grabbed his hand.

What I meant to write: Nicholas grabbed her hand.

I know Nicholas undergoes a lot of changes in the story, but a sex change is not one of them.

1. Shit his head.

What I meant to write: She hit his head.

Shit his head. A new phrase for when you just can’t stand someone.

Blurb:

Once a year for the past decade, Nicholas Adams returns to Falledge and leaves a black hellebore on his girlfriend's grave. While departing Falledge, he chases after a man sneaking into the laboratory and dies for his trouble. A witch brings him back to life, but Nicholas soon realizes he's not the same man. Turns out, magic combined with a black hellebore in his pocket changed him into a kind of a super man.

His girlfriend's twin, Julianna Paige, is Falledge's deputy, struggling to solve several murders. Nicholas, and his alter ego the Black Hellebore, helps her, even as she helps him move on and even start to love again.

Unfortunately, Nicholas wasn't the only one changed in the laboratory explosion, and now there's a supervillain bent on destroying Falledge, and killing the Black Hellebore. But falling in love might prove more dangerous than any supervillain.

Bio:

Nicole Zoltack loves to write fantasy/paranormal, romances, horror, historical, for adults and young adults, novels, short stories, and flash pieces. She doesn't want to get boxed in by genre -- she might be claustrophobic! She's also an editor for MuseItUp Publishing and works as a freelance editor.

When she isn't writing about girls wanting to be knights, talking unicorns, and zombies, she spends time with her loving family. She loves to ride horses (pretending they're unicorns, of course!) and going to the Pennsylvania Renaissance Faire, dressed in period garb. Her favorite current TV show is The Walking Dead.

Aislinn of Bairbhe dreams of becoming a lady knight to honor the death of her fallen brother. To her mother's horror, King Patrick grants Aislinn's wish and she begins her long years of training.

Despite the mockery of the other pages, and the disdain of Prince Caelan who also trains to be a knight, Aislinn commits herself to her dreams and embarks on a journey of self-discovery and bravery. Through the years, Aislinn and Caelan grow from sparring classmates to good friends. They both know that someday Caelan will marry for the sake of the kingdom, but even that cannot keep them from falling in love. 

The threat of war with the Speicans is a constant threat, and one that grows more frightening as she and Caelan train toward their eventual knighthood. Aislinn has committed herself to serving Arnhem, and has promised herself as King's Champion when Caelan claims the throne. She is willing to give up everything... her childhood, her life, even her heart for Arnhem. No matter the pain it brings.

Sir Geoffrey and his companions have just completed a mission for Queen Aislinn when he receives word of the Speicans attacking Arnhem.

Even as he fights for his kingdom and his life, Geoffrey finds himself torn between his new friend Jenanna and the mysterious lady Celestia he left behind in Arnhem.

Enlisting help is infinitely more difficult than they anticipated and to make matters worse, rumors abound that the Speicans have enlisted a mage to work unspeakable, forbidden magic. The war between Speica and Arnhem has just begun. Will Geoffrey survive the battle to live another day and discover which woman he truly loves?
