What about a weekly book review? I don’t brag often, but if I have a super power, it’s reading. So I could, quite easily, read through a book a week and reviewing it. I like the idea, although it’s something more on my plate, when I’m trying to ease up. And on the other hand, I’m […]
So Publishing Day ran smack in to technical delays… *Sigh* We’re completely ready for tomorrow though. I swear. As for me, I’ve been working on Red Witch in the mean time. I’ve been unhappy with the direction the story took. I knew what kind of story the series needed for book two, and I hadn’t […]
Waiting for my edits this morning… I’m using my time wisely: working on the Red Witch. While this is a new draft, I am using a lot of old material, changing up pacing and updating it for a few plot twists. The problem right now, is that this older draft feels like it has more […]
That’s what writing novels feels like to me these days. I do remember this feeling. Without a deadline to push me, I tend towards a paragraph and a chapter there. It’s almost lazy writing… although not lazy writing. It also means lots of rereading. So I sit down, read the last few paragraphs, get the shape […]
Read Last Call: Culmination to my husband last night. And there were a few passages that felt like I was talking about Kuzco’s poison. It happens. But other than that, the piece feels good. Mina and Matty are almost ready for their next adventure. Once I get through a little cutting and word choicing. Which […]
It’s the same old, same old. Just me plugging away. Ahead on Chelsea stories, got a chapter of the Red Witch done, working on the web comic, proofreading Culmination… So I’m busy, and I’ll talk to ya’ll, tomorrow.
Miss Ashley has internet this week, and so we have a new comic! Okay, enough gushing. Okay, I swear, I’m done. I’m just very excited about these next few comics. Mina is changing for the first time, and that’s… it’s just awesome. Ashley is doing such a great job with it. But, I have to […]
Pulling ahead of my professional obligations ahead of an incoming ‘blizzard’ means I have some time to work on my novel this weekend. While snow might be coming for me, the cold definitely is. So I’ve Audra’s Pandora station running while I get to work on Red Witch. I’m hoping to finish this chapter today, and […]
Met with Miss Ashley today regarding our comics. Yes, plural, we’re planning on a second one. One of the shorts I keep mentioning is for her, regarding her original characters, world, and story. We spent some time today discussing characters, story philosophy, and symbolism. All of which we need to be on the same page […]
I had a sick baby to take care of. Not the ten year old is baby, or really needed more than water, lunch, and the occasional snuggle. But between that and cleaning to move… well, all my inspiration and drive was shot. Hopefully, tomorrow I can get more writing done… or tonight…
