I think I’ve figured it out! I just opened False Side of Shadow and noted it was already at 40k+. The other two novels are 62 and 64 respectively. According to my outline, I’m not even halfway through this book. I think I’ve bitten off more than I can chew in this one. What I’m [...]
Tiopa Ki Lakota is going through its line by line edits now. Once it’s done and back to me, I’ll scan through. If all is good, I send it back for technical edits. They’re still working on a cover concept. We’ll see how it goes. My previous two books with Fortitude Press were done by [...]
Has gone through yet another round of edits. Got it back from my editor Monday, but waited until today to focus on it. Lots of repeated words, for the most part. Just sent it back. Apparently, Fortitude is aiming to have it out by Orlando Bardcon at the end of May. This’ll be the fastest [...]
…mainly cuz I'm slacking. LOL! I think I've figured out my block. I've just finished what I thought was chapter 18 . . . I was wrong. It was chapter 19. I have yet to write chapter 18. Getting too far ahead of myself. The outline has been reshuffled to some semblance of order. Only [...]
1466 words today. Coffee People helped immensely. As soon as I sat down, I began typing. Of course, as soon as I got home, I started staring off into space. LOL! But, I’ve plugged at it off and on for several hours. Chapter 17 is almost finished. Jenna is this close to finding out exactly [...]
To all of you who chimed in on this blog and through email! (Thanks for the e-card, too, Aries!) By the end of the day, our marriage certificate was framed and hanging in the entryway. Funny. We've been in this apartment since October, and until yesterday hadn't put a damned thing up on the walls [...]
I'm MARRIED!!!
Final score – 1788 words. Chapter 16 complete, chapter 17 started. We are now leading into a night on the town which will result in three things: 1. Margaurethe's fears will be vindicated. 2. Jenna will be attacked by a Sanguire who personally wishes her harm because of Elisibet the Tyrannos' past actions. 3. Jenna [...]
Writing! Again! YAY! Jenna has decided to be happy (a suggestion by her new chambermaid, the mysterious Sithathor.) She's told her advisors she's going to go to Tribulations for a little enjoyment. She's a kid, she needs the outlet. She's been penned up since this whole mess started, having only left the estate in the [...]
1114 words. Jenna has broken the bad news to her advisors that she plans on having a night out on the town. Needless to say, Margaurethe is less than thrilled with the idea. Lovers' spat, anyone? Off to work, blech. Tonight we prepare for the a huge auction tomorrow night. Joy of joys! You thought [...]
Got back into the RPG again. Yay me! Saw ‘The Order’ with Heath Ledger et al. Interesting that three of the main actors were also three of the main actors on ‘A Knight’s Tale.’ When I saw the female lead, I burst out laughing despite the seriousness of the scene. Anyway, the premise was an [...]
1051 words, and chapter fourteen is finished. I may be about a third of the way through the book, all things considered. Won't know for certain until I'm at the end. LOL! The outline is changing considerably as my goals do. We'll see how it goes. Must prepare for work. Got errands to run beforehand.
