Blots and Plots
Blots and Plots is run by Jenny Bravo and is a very informative website.
More about Jenny:
Welcome to Blots & Plots. I’m Jenny Bravo. Yes, that is my real name. Yes, you can make a Johnny Bravo joke. I won’t mind. Thank you for coming to visit! Here, you’ll find writing advice, blogging tips and the honest truth about how to write and (self)publish a book for the first time.
Let’s get a few things out of the way: I’m a Christmas-obsessed, Frozen fanatic with a tendency to break into showtunes at any given moment. Phew. I feel better, don’t you? I’m a 23-year-old, NOLA girl living in Houston, who happened to spend six months driving a safari truck and saying things like, “Jambo!” (Disney Kilimanjaro Safaris, 2013) Oh yeah! And I’m writing a book.
