IWSG Day Question: As you look back on 2017, with all its successes and failures, if you could backtrack, what would you do differently? Oh gosh, 2017 has been a strange year as it is. Right now I’m cursing not mentally preparing more for NaNoWriMo. I may have hit my 50K, but I haven’t reached theContinue reading “2017 Writing Reflections #IWSG”

It’s that time of year again… #IWSG
Oh, hey, I remembered to do an #IWSG post this time. The last couple of months have been a bit crazy and today starts off another level of insanity with NaNoWriMo kicking off. And the fact that this is my 11th year participating doesn’t make me sound any more sane. IWSG Question of the Day: WinContinue reading “It’s that time of year again… #IWSG”
The other side of writing #IWSG
Oops, almost forgot to put up something for today. Lately I’ve been focusing more on the other side of writing, or rather, the business side. Lining up events, marketing, sending off whatever information someone needs… It’s been a bit of a whirlwind month and it’s only going to pick up from here. Which means I’mContinue reading “The other side of writing #IWSG”
Lesson learned #IWSG
IWSG Day Question: What is one valuable lesson you’ve learned since you started writing? Yep, just answering the question this month. Figure it’s better than my fretting about pretty much the same thing I have been for months. I guess the biggest lesson I’ve learned is that I need to write what makes me happy. IfContinue reading “Lesson learned #IWSG”
Crunch time #IWSG
Shattered Illusions is up for digital pre-order on Amazon. Working on getting the physical proof in (and obsessively checking the mail for it) so we can go through it quickly and I can get pre-orders started. Setting up other sales for Twisted Magics. And the list continues. I might be found tugging my hair with everythingContinue reading “Crunch time #IWSG”
Distracted #IWSG
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”
Revisiting old work #IWSG
March IWSG Day Question: Have you ever pulled out a really old story and reworked it? Did it work out? Yes, and it was torture to some extent. I really liked the concept of the short story and wanted to rewrite it and see if I couldn’t do more with it. Since it’s a side project,Continue reading “Revisiting old work #IWSG”
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”
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”
