Usually I can focus down on a project and work on it for a while, but after getting through one round of revisions on book 3 during Camp NaNoWriMo I got distracted by other side projects. These side projects are helpful because for me it fills in the gaps that the reader won’t see andContinue reading “Distracted #IWSG”

Snowball effect #IWSG
Since I totally forgot about today’s post until now and it has some relevance for me, I’m stealing Loni’s idea. I posted previously about Crossfit. I try not to speak too much of it because I know the stigma it carries. And truthfully, from an outside observer before I started it looked like pure chaos.Continue reading “Snowball effect #IWSG”
A belated thank you
A belated thank you to everyone who stopped by and said hi at Rediscovered Books this weekend. There are still signed copies of Twisted Magics on sale there. I also want to thank the folks at Rediscovered – they are the nicest, sweetest people who have a huge passion for books. And my daughter mightContinue reading “A belated thank you”
Fun side projects
A friend of mine posted in our local NaNo Facebook page a while ago about a letter writing challenge from another group. Now, I think the original challenge was to write a letter to someone every day in February. She proposed to use it as a writing challenge and write letters between characters (just withContinue reading “Fun side projects”
Busy time #IWSG
Oh gosh, I feel a little guilty taking time away from all the things I need to do to write this post. But first, some fun news: Rediscovered Books in downtown Boise is now carrying copies of Twisted Magics. I’m so thrilled to be working with them. I’ll also be doing an event there onContinue reading “Busy time #IWSG”
Normal routine?
Between the holidays, illnesses, and more snow days than I can shake a stick at (because I’m not going out in that just to get a stick), getting back to a normal routine has been…challenging. It still hasn’t happened actually. Which makes trying to add in new things to the routine difficult and puts meContinue reading “Normal routine?”
And then there were three #IWSG
Hope no one minds that I’m passing on this month’s question and just doing my own thing. Book 3 is alpha ready. Has been for a few weeks now, but I’ve been editing it while Shattered Illusions is out to my beta readers, which is starting to come back now (so I need to get onContinue reading “And then there were three #IWSG”
I’ve been rather quiet
First, for those who follow me, I want to apologize for my long periods of silence. Things have been going on in my life that have kept me quiet. I won’t go into most of them, but especially for the past few weeks it seems to be one thing after another. Much of which makesContinue reading “I’ve been rather quiet”
Where will I go? #IWSG
I know I usually do more than answer the question of the month, but I’m afraid I’m not much in the frame of mind to do so. There’s just been a lot going on. And now for this month’s question: In terms of your writing career, where do you see yourself five years from now, andContinue reading “Where will I go? #IWSG”
How do you #NaNoWriMo ?
Everyone finds a different way to get through NaNoWriMo and it may take a few years to find that particular method. As I close in on 50K words quickly, people think my method is crazy, but it works. I have a NaNoWriMo calendar (there’s a few different options to choose from online) that I keepContinue reading “How do you #NaNoWriMo ?”
