Revision!
Oh revision! How you had me worried! Oh wait….. That’s a lot of red. Really the revisions aren’t all that bad. Most pages look like this: That’s a lot less red. I started working on revisions on Monday, even though it was a holiday and that meant the kids were home which also means a lot less time to work. Even with a shortened work week, I’ve managed to make it all the way through chapter 12 which is well over halfway through the book. Not too shabby. I was certain this revision would take weeks to get through. I guess it helps that I’m putting in 8 –…

The Big Rewrite or My Self-Imposed Exile
It’s Friday! And it’s been a month since I’ve done a Friday post or any type of post at that. I began the big rewrite of my rough draft a month ago and it has completely taken over. The time I would devote to social media or writing a blog post, I’ve spent working on the rewrite instead. And I find that I’m okay with that. I enjoy the Twitter writing games but they aren’t as important as finishing the rewrite. I do miss the interaction with other people but there’s always time for that later. I’ve been withdrawing more and more in the afternoons and evenings to work…

Yay! It’s Friday and day 4 of Nanowrimo! So far so good for me this Nano but I don’t want to jinx it so I won’t put into words just how awesome and great I feel like this week has been going.

It’s a day that encourages you to double your daily or total Nano word count and to also double up your donations to the site. There will be virtual write-ins and word prompts all day long and a chance to win awesome prizes all day long on the…

Happy Friday!
It’s Friday! It’s also the boy child’s birthday and party this weekend so the next couple of days are packed for me. I have relatives that will be pulling into the driveway any minute now so this is probably going to be a very quick update/accountability post.

Everyday Accountability
It’s the second full week of school for my Kiddos so it’s also the second full week of being able to say that I’m a full time writer. But oh boy! Look at all of those excuses to procrastinate! And that has been the struggle the last week and a half. While in my mind’s eye I envisioned myself sitting down to work on editing my rough draft as soon as the kid’s were off to school that first day – the reality was ugly. I panicked with so much free time and ended up not being very productive when it came to writing. But, and there’s always a but,…
