They say week two is the hard one, and I think they’re right. I’ve lost my initial steam and everything that I REALLY neglected the first week now needs my attention. There is a fine art to figuring out just how much to neglect your real life during NaNoWriMo. I was painfully drudging through the… Continue reading The NaNoWriMo Blues
So essentially everything I’ve told you on this blog has been lies.(That’s what you get for trusting a writer of fiction) Well, maybe not lies, but certain things have happened in a certain way, leaving just about everything I’ve told you invalid. The long and the short of it is that The Young House will… Continue reading The Awkward Redaction
It’s really quite nice (amid all the hectic crazy insanity of trying to produce my first professional ebook) to just WRITE. It’s so hard to find time for writing when every other aspect of your life has been tethered to deadlines and due dates. That’s why NaNoWriMo is such a blessing. It makes you step… Continue reading NaNoWriMo
Not too many people know what a novelette is. They get the gist of it pretty easy, but it’s not a word that’s thrown around a lot. Unless you’ve spent some serious time going through the Science Fiction and Fantasy Writers of America’s guidelines for the Nebula Awards though, chances are you don’t know a… Continue reading Why Would You Write a Novelette?
I’ll be honest, there are a lot of aspects of preparing The Young House which are really stressing me out right now. Writing a book is easy…getting it packaged and prepared to be publicly presented is the problematic part. Even alliterating isn’t going to help me completely unwind though, so I thought I’d sit down… Continue reading A Peter Pan Horror Story
I ought to write this now, seeing as though tomorrow I’ll be busy with Halloween and the next thirty days I’ll be busy with NaNoWriMo (prepare for this blog to take a stark turn into the insane and literary in those dark, glorious days.) I’m happy to announce that the book I am currently… Continue reading The Young House
So this WordPress blog is new, and you may be wondering why I’ve started yet ANOTHER blog which I will have to keep up. The answer is simple: this is the blog for my forthcoming book. The release date is a little up in the air, but we’re looking at late November. It’s a novelette,… Continue reading Tidbits and Details: A New Book
I could deal with editing if it weren’t for plot holes, really I could. If all I had to do was rearrange sentences and remember that “dining” is not spelled “dinning” and “disembrace” is not a word, it would be easy. This story is so close to being finished, and yet there is just one… Continue reading Plot Holes
I have done so many of these “first blogs” it’s not even funny. Back when I was angsty and little, I had a Windows “Live Journal” or something. I can’t even remember. Nothing interesting ever happened to me though, and even when it did, I didn’t feel like writing about it. Blogging has never appealed… Continue reading The Vagabond Blogger
