Meet Sheri Williams and Mechanics of Love from #beyondthefriendzone

Sheri Williams is, in her own words, an author who suffers from self diagnosed Author Multiple Personality Disorder. She started writing Romance, sweet and sexy, and has since started Gothic Horror, with a side project in Psychological Horror.

As well as being a writer, she is a wife, a mom, a geek. When not writing she can be found playing outside with her two daughters or binging on BBC shows on Netflix. She is currently working on multiple projects, ranging from romance to horror. Keep an eye on the website and on the upcoming newsletter to stay in the loop.

Sheri is one of the fantabulous authors of the Writing Wenches and we've hung out online for little more than a year now. She's totally awesome. You can stalk her at twitter, facebook, and website.

Sheri is in Beyond the Friend Zone with the cute story about Nora and Olly, Mechanics of Love. When Nora's business starts to fail, she looks to her best friend Olly to help her out, but he wants to help her out of more than her business woes. Can best friends who work together also play together?

The story totally sets the tone for the whole anthology, not only since it's the opening one, but it's spot on the theme. And I totally have a thing for guys with long, red hair...

Beyond the Friend Zone is available on pre-order now and releases on Monday September 5th. Be sure to check it out to fill your last days of summer with romance.

We need your help

We are currently in the finishing phase of marketing Beyond the Friend Zone. Unfortunately we haven't gotten as many pre-orders as we had hoped so I'm begging for a favour. Order it! It's just $2.99 (34 SEK). It's not much for an investment, right?

I would be even happier if you supported our cause on thunderclap, too. We need a few more supporters. Pretty, sweet, dearest readers, with suger and perhaps a cherry on top? I will be for ever grateful. Perhaps I can offer another taste of my novella, more than just the teaser?

Nu ligger vi i slutspurten med marknadsförandet inför releasen av Beyond the Friend Zone. Vi har inte fått fullt så många förköp som vi önskat så jag ber er om en tjänst. Klicka hem den! Det är 34 kr det handlar om. Inte så farligt att se som en "investering", eller hur?

Jag skulle även bli glad om ni gav ert stöd även på thunderclap. Vi behöver några till. Snälla, söta, rara läsare, med socker på toppen och kanske även ett körsbär? Jag är er evigt tacksam! Kanske får ni rent av ett smakprov ur min novell, mer än bara teasern?

To learn from one's mistakes

It's still sad that one has to do it. The other day the one thing that wasn't supposed to happen, happened. Especially since I'd just unloaded a ton of pictures from my phone to the laptop. And it crashed. For some reason it wouldn't recover either. We hadn't made one of those recovery points on the internet or something. The hard drive thought to be broken. I thought, well good, it's partitioned, so we could just fix the one with the system files on it and the one with all the stuff we didn't want to get rid of would be safe. Yeah, that didn't work. We had to format the whole thing. *sobs* Thankfully I save most of my writing related stuff on Dropbox. I've learned that lesson already. I do realise I've saved all my stock photos on the computer and not in dropbox (due to space issues I would assume), I had all my mind maps in theBrain where I've moved all my character stuff and setting and that's gone now, because that was saved to the hard drive.

Now I've sought out my notebooks, where I've written down most of what I've put in the mind mapping program. It's actually quite good, because now I get to know my characters a bit better. I'm trying really hard to fin the silver lining here. Hopefully my muse will wake up too, so I get some writing done. It's way overdue.

I'm feeling a bit down at the moment. I was only restarting the laptop because Word wouldn't work when I was sitting down to write.

Man lär av sina misstag

Men, det är tråkigt att behöva göra det. Häromdagen hände det som absolut inte får hända. Speciellt inte efter man har tömt sin telefon på bilder från de senaste typ 3 åren och så där. Datorn kraschade. Den gick inte att recovera för vi inte gjort någon systemåterställningspunkt. Hårddisken troligen paj. Tänkte, bra, den är ju partitionerad så systemfilerna ligger ju för sig och alla dokument, bilder och annat som man vill ha kvar för sig. Försökte formatera partitionen med systemen men det funkade inte. Fick formatera hela alltet. *snyft* Som tur är så sparar jag alltid mitt skrivrelaterade på dropbox. Det har jag i alla fall lärt mig. Inser dock att jag sparat alla stock photos jag laddat hem på datorn och inte i dropboxen (antagligen av utrymmesskäl), jag hade massor av mind maps i programmet theBrain dit jag flyttat alla karaktärer och beskrivningar som nu är puts väck, för jag inte lagt över dem i dropboxen.

Nu har jag letat fram mina skrivblock, där jag skrivit ner mycket av det jag hade i mindmappingprogrammet. Egentligen är det ju lite bra för nu får jag möjlighet att lära känna mina karaktärer lite bättre. Försöker verkligen hitta "the silver lining" här. ;) Förhoppningsvis vaknar musan också så jag får lite skrivet. Det är på tiden.

Ja, jag känner mig rätt nere just nu. Och jag startade bara om datorn för att word inte ville funka när jag skulle sätta mig och skriva.
