Last night, I got busy… on my writing. I intended to update chapter 41 over the weekend. I had it allll planned out. Of course, because I had it planned out, life got in the way.
In my head, I had what I thought was a bit of cute, witty, but story line revealing banter between [...]

We have reached the end of another month in 2010… time is flying by! It’s time again for the Get Your Words Out Word Count Report.
In the month of February, I blogged quite a bit on my personal blog, sometimes managing 7 blogs a week. I also completed a chapter of All I Wanna Do, [...]

Things I need to do vs things that get in the way. That’s what I am dealing with, over here. I need time and space and energy and a clear mind to write. I don’t have all of those elements, but I’m working on it. Dealing with some personal issues that I would love to [...]

Read a couple of [...]

Write.
Write.
Write some more.
Look for some books.
Leave the house.
WRITE.
I am hoping to get a start on Ch 41 of AIWD. Got some ideas rolling around but the chapter needs a purpose. A goal that I need to achieve in writing it otherwise I will write into oblivion. Maybe some planning tomorrow.
More editing on Calm Waves and [...]

I do not suck. I do not suck. I do not suck. I do not suck.
I may never be published but I do not suck.
*breathes*

Did not make the time. The break actually felt glorious after kind of a busy day. Hopefully will get some time to look at it more tomorrow.
But YAY, because I was talking about AutoCrit on twitter the other night and they tweeted me back and gave me a discount code for 10% off of a [...]
