Six More


I am working really hard meeting my deadline for completing my MS. Just added six more pages today. I've met my daily writing goal for today but, I have to work the for the next four days straight and probably won't have time to write but, two of the four so, I plan on taking a coffee break then getting back to writing.

I remember when I thought I'd never get to 30,000 words, now I've passed that. I also remember thinking that I would never get published and that all this writing was for me. (Well, I'm not published yet but, I should be hopefully come mid-November:)

Being an writer is not easy work. Once you get one piece of work accepted, you have immediately or should I say continuously produce. I've already got the next novel length book in mind for the next book after "Cursed Blood." I've already got a partial plot going for Raven, the character in my short story.(eight pages of type written notes on characters and plotting.)

I met my writing goals for 2009 already and have set new goals for 2010. Wish me lots of luck.

Writing Progress

Just did six pages on "Cursed Blood." My page goal is at least four pages a day so, for today, I surpassed my goal. I have been pretty busy with family and getting the girls ready for school as well as trying to spend quality Mommy time with them.

If I'm going to met my goal of finishing my MS by Jan., I have some catching up to do. But, for today I am happy:)

FAMILY TIME


Sitting on my couch visiting with family. We have been having a great time. We are all getting ready to go out. I've not had any time for writing the last couple of days. I'll have to make up for time later this week. I've got a deadline for completing "Cursed Blood."

"Stripped" Release Day!


Today is really special day because today is my birthday and my friend Marcia Colette's book "Stripped" is released. After reading "Unstable Environment," I am definitely buying a copy of "Stripped."

My friend has turned into one of those author's that make me stop everything I'm working on at the time and read her book. Kim Harrison use to be the only other author that could do that.

Make sure you pick up a copy. You won't be disappointed. Click on the picture of "Stripped" on the right of my blog to visit Marcia's website.
