My goals with the Hernandez series ☠️
If you haven't checked out the Hernandez series yet, you might want to stop by mimaonfire.com to learn about the characters, the books and take a look at all the snappy covers. 😍
As a writer, I have a few goals that I keep in mind, specifically while working on this series:
Diversity. I've covered this issue in previous blogs and videos because it's one of my most important writing goals. Our society is made up of many kinds of people, and this should be reflected in our books.
Equality. The men are strong. The women are strong. No damsels in distress here.
Theme. Each of my books has a theme that follows the story. For example, my latest book, We're All Criminals, focuses on freedom.
Social issues. There's a lot going on in the world and, it's important to bring it to the surface to inspect a little more closely or perhaps, show it from a different point of view.
Snappy dialogue. Each character has a unique way of expressing themselves, which should be reflected in their dialogue. It shouldn't fall flat.
Subplots. Lots and lots of subplots. People need a lot of balls in the air, or they lose interest.
Fast-moving. If you're going to write a 900-page book, you better have a hell of a lot of time (like years) or events covered, or people will lose interest by chapter 3.
These are the key ingredients that help to make the ideal Hernandez soup.
