Back to writing basics

Posted on October 13, 2018 by Bevery Magid in Beverly's Blog

When your mind is blank, your juice is dried up and yet you still yearn to write, it’s time to go back to basics. Back to a writing class, one that’s a bit off the wall, but solid on process. There’s a progression of processes you must adhere to, follow and hopefully, presto you’re back […]

Am I a character in the novel of my life?

Posted on May 3, 2018 by Bevery Magid in Beverly's Blog

Do other writers have the same problem? I’ve written my novel, launched it, watch it go up and down in sales, get a great response from reviewers and readers and now – nothing. I feel like an empty vessel. Nothing more to say, at least in the world of story telling. I know all the […]

Back to elementary school again

Posted on April 2, 2018 by Bevery Magid in Beverly's Blog

For the last month I’ve been volunteering in the most fun program called Young Story Tellers for kids in an elementary school. I’m partnered with a young girl and my job is to encourage and mentor her to create a five page script from her own original story which will be performed as part of […]

I’m Controversial???

Posted on February 17, 2018 by Bevery Magid in Beverly's Blog

Wow! A friend suggested doing podcasts as a way of promoting myself and my books, referring me to someone who books podcasts. She did mainly non-fiction and business so she in turn referred me to someone else.

My books are from the past, but reflect current events

Posted on February 3, 2018 by Bevery Magid in Beverly's Blog

Women seem to be at the forefront of current events. The #MeToo movement is just one aspect, but very vocal and evident. Women want to be heard, they refuse to be dismissed or discounted. They’re marching, voting, organizing, reporting, running for office. The word “feminist” became the word –of-the-year. Why not? Women have been trying […]

Nothing better than having readers “get” it

Posted on February 1, 2018 by Bevery Magid in Beverly's Blog

A virtual blog tour was something that was totally new for me in connection with my new book, WHERE DO I GO. It was like sending your baby out on a trip all by herself before she has learned to walk. Will she end up crawling back home, bullied by the world. Still, there’s no […]

Staying right-side-up in an upside-down-world

Posted on December 3, 2017 by Bevery Magid in Beverly's Blog

Well, right away I have to say it may be impossible. After all a writer is supposed to be in tune with the world, sensitive to its nuances, its changes, the imperceptible whims of the world. We might not understand them but we’re hip to them happening. Our job is to figure them out or […]
