This movie.
When the time comes for this film to be in theatres, I’ll be the one on the front row –transfixed. My favorite kind of story, some of my favorite actors, a location that is part of my DNA, and it’s all done so well cinematically, that I’ll want to watch it over and over again. […]
A writing hole.
I apologize to those internet wanderers who may have landed on my page and expected a little more engagement. These past several months I’ve put myself in a writing hole and periodically come up for sunshine and cookies, but don’t as often pop over to the blog and social media outlets. Hopefully, you’ll see that […]
Map Making 101
Not that I’ve found one, but I could really use a Dummy’s Guide to Making a Map. My novel, The Big Inch, is a WWII historical fiction and it utilizes real places in the city of Longview, Texas. Imaginary characters climb the stairs, stare off the rooftops, and gaze over lake surfaces in the very […]
History Has Warts
I’m a bit confused by those who wish to sanitize history. Not confused really, this has been happening since the earliest days of ink and papyrus–those scribes with their hieroglyphics documented events as they were told to by their kings and priests. History had a spin even along the Nile. But the mad rush today to […]
A Peek into the Writer’s Life
Turn away, and look elsewhere. I’m warning you, it’s a mess in here. My desk is divided with stacks of real life work (I’m freelance writer with clients that want their work turned around when they want it, despite my desire to be sitting there writing fiction,) and stacks of whatever tidbits of research I’ve […]
The clatter of keyboarding
I’ve been holed up in my favorite hermit spot for a few weeks now, busily attacking the second draft of the work-in-progress, okay, it’s really called Harmon General. Gosh, it’s hard to keep a secret these days. As it is, my fingers fly so fast that I then have to spend a few hours re-reading […]
Working on a Series Notebook
I’ve spent the better part of the last few days organizing old notes, photos, interviews, articles, maps, trinkets, and character sketches into a 4″ binder to become the brain of the series, Misfits and Millionaires–the first book was released in winter 2017, The Big Inch. This notebook became necessary because as I’m currently at work […]
Packing my bags for a blog tour!
Hello, friends. Hope you’re in an armchair traveling mood. One of the reasons I write is to take mental vacations to places I want to explore and experience. (And buying a book is a lot cheaper than an airline ticket!) I hope that’s one of the reasons you read too. Bloggers with Lone Star Literary […]
Expanding my presence on Face Book
I created an author page for folks who are “hooked on Kimberly Fish books” and it’s where I’ll post videos, author events, bookish news, scoop in my works-in-progress and any other tidbits that will interest readers of book with a dash of Texas history and flair for all things good. Facebook friends can find me […]
