So getting back into the swing of things. Rather than updating weekly I’m going to change to monthly, hopefully will see more progress that way. Currently working on a short story, then onto my latest revision of Raven, Bargain is on one side at the moment it needs quite a lot of revision.
Words written so far in 2010 – 1607.
…it’s still September at the moment.
Unfortunately things happening outside the writing sphere have meant I’ve not been able to devote much time to writing recently.
Rather than have the blog die a complete death whilst I deal with family problems I’ll be posting once a week on any progress I make, and hopefully will be back to full writing strength soon. Read the rest of this entry
I can’t believe it’s been so long since I posted.
:sigh: I suck at blogging. But will be doing my best to start posting again. As Xena would say – don’t apologize, improve.
In August I’m hoping to write 5000 words a day, so currently ramping up to that.
WIP’s at the moment – Demon’s Touch – first draft, rewriting The Bargain.
Apologies for my absence. We went from having loads of time to get the house ready, to the house being on the market and still being decorated. So things have been more than a little bit mad here. I’m currently in a bit of a lull – thank goodness.
Currently reworking The Baragain, and the first draft of the Raven. Sqeezing my writing in at the moment around my job, family committments and (hopefully) selling the house, so things are progressing slowly.
Online fiction – it’s going to be difficult for me to devote the time needed to do a complete story. SO…. Taking a leaf out of Maura Anderson’s book I have decided to post snippets along the lines of her Friday Flash fiction. Where these relate to specific settings – e.g. Land of the Fey – I’ll make a note. And hopefully it will give you something to read whilst I get my head down and concentrate on the main stories.
So I know I mentioned this briefly before, but this is the plan for 2009. 
I’m going to post more about my reading choices and my reasons for picking them on the first Monday post of 2009 but the first book is going to be Pride and Prejudice.
The WIP progress is very slow at the moment, but over the past few days I’ve blasted through the first draft of The Bargain and am very pleased with the progress I’ve made. Sadly, the reason for my lack of progress is because my dad passed away just before Christmas. However, he would be the first person to tell me to get on with it, so that’s what I’m doing.
See you in the New Year.
Pleased to see that my scheduled poetry post posted okay, I’m obviously not as technically inept as I thought I was – not quite.
Got back from holiday safely and have started the long haul that is NaNo, am more than a little bit off target at the moment, currently at 1400 words. So I need to try and get some serious typing done. I am terrible for wanting to edit as I go along, which I know is wrong during NaNo. I’m also still trying to work on The Bargain at the same time. Both of the stories I’m working on I am so happy with, I just wish I had more hours in the day to write.
I really need to think of some more Thursday 13′s to post. I usually get up to about 6 or 7 items on the list and then get stumped. Hmm, maybe I’ll do a Thursday 7 instead.
