Day 52: Chapter 13 Complete

It’s not the best work I’ve done, but the chapter is finished. I already know that the chapter might need (will need) major work done to it but for now it’s done and I can move on. This means there are only two chapters to go and I should be finished the entire [...]

Did you know?

With all the pushing and shoving to get a WordPress.com account, it’s amazing we’re all still alive. I say this in jest, of course.
It you haven’t got an account, or even if you do and you want another blog (we can never have too many blogs, can we?), then maybe you’ll be interested in [...]

Day 50: Update

A deal’s a deal, and I kept my side of the bargain.
For those interested, I managed to write two whole pages this evening, which is a page more than I was determined to write (but when I set the goal, I knew I’d continue writing). In truth, I’d hoped it would [...]

Day 50: Procrastinating

This doesn’t make sense, I know, but I’m procrastinating about writing the next chapter of my chapter book. There are only three more chapters to go, so this is terrible news.
However, I have been turning the scene over in my mind and I did discover that I’d been premature with the development of one [...]

Getting the Urge

As all webmasters know, there comes a time when they get the urge to do bigger and better on their website. They get the urge to make changes, and I’m getting that urge.
I’ve found myself looking at templates. What works? What doesn’t? I’ve also looked at a number of CMS packages [...]

Selective Hearing

We’ve all heard about it and we’ve all done it. Some people are much better than other, of course, especially kids. Being a mother of two boys who enjoyed annoying each other from morning to night, I developed the skill some years ago. I could block them out completely when I [...]

Day 45 cont: And then there were three

It was hard work, but today I wrote close to 1500 words. I sat at the computer at 10.30am and did half hour stints. The first paragraph took me an hour to write. Every single word was forced out. Then I wrote a page in then minutes. That’s what the [...]

Day 45: Need a Diagram

My characters are in a cavern and although I know what has to be done, this afternoon, I found myself drawing a diagram of the area. I drew in the boulders, the entrances, the location of the torches and then I marked where each of my characters are standing at the beginning of the [...]

Day 44: The Countdown is On!

This past week has been a bad week all round. I’ve been quite sick and as a result my daily writing went out the window. I only managed three pages on Wednesday - nothing more.
However, this afternoon I started feeling much better. I no longer need to walk around [...]

NaNoWriMo

I’m seeing these letters spring up all over the internet, in the groups I belong to, and on message boards.
November is the month of NaNoWriMo. It’s a time when writers from around the world band together and offer encouragement and support whilst each of them aim for a 50,000 word count in [...]
