JW Robitaille Alachua County Writer

4 min read

We are getting back into the groove of things featuring JW Robitaille an Alachua County Writer. I really love ready good mystery stories. Nothing gives me more pleasure than finding new mystery writers to read especially those with strong female characters. I am so excited to be featuring a member of the Writers Alliance of Gainesville whom I recently delivered a video presentation on book marketing. In return, those nice people have given me a year’s membership, a link, and profile on their member pages as well as a free copy of the yearly published book filled with new stories to read. They have a contest going for writers but you will have to read more about that on my Jolene’s Books and More website.

h3>AUTHOR INTERVIEW

Does writing energize or exhaust you?
Writing generally energizes me. I write early in the morning when I am most alert. There is nothing more exciting than opening my computer to work on building a world of characters and issues and conflicts. After four or five hours, I’m starting to flag, and then it’s time to turn to other tasks like gardening, cooking, and house projects.

If you could tell your younger writing self anything, what would it be?
Write as much as you can as often as you can. Write stories that have a beginning, middle, and end. Give them to friends to read. Write more stories. Imagine fictional worlds and then build them.

What was the best money you ever spent as a writer?
Scrivener is a writing and formatting program that sells for around $50. It’s the best money I ever spent. The program helps me organize, write, and format my work. I don’t think I could write a novel without it now.

How did publishing your first book change your process of writing?
Publishing my first book helped me see that I could do it. There is nothing quite like holding a published book in your hand. Picturing my idea as a finished book with a cover image helps me believe I can make the idea a reality. Once I published my first book, there was no stopping me. I’ve published eight novels and am at work on a YA dystopian series that has five books (four of which are mostly written)

We have settled down in the Lake City, Florida area for now as I am writing another book and have began taking on website design and social media content creator clients.
