October 25, 2013

It’s been a week!  Yay! It’s also been the week that my freelance writing career has decided to blossom, which is FANTASTIC, but, you know, less book-writing time. But mostly, today’s lack of progress comes from the fact that I am feeling unwell, and so I decided to take the day off and just relax […]

I GOT MY CHARACTER PROFILES DONE!! YES. They are basic, and I only got the Main Six–Lilith, Judith, Roark, Erik, Adrian, and Mason–but it’s a start and it’s a thing that’s DONE.

Day 5: 90 Day Writing Challenge

October 22, 2013

OK, so the character profiling has begun, which is good.  But it’s not complete, which is…less good. It’s kinda hilarious that I started this whole challenge this week because I have been uncommonly busy lately.  Also, there’s the fact that I still have boxes up on boxes to unpack.

October 21, 2013

I need to get more creative with these titles. I also need to get more disciplined with my time, because I’ll be honest:  I basically fell off the wagon today.

Day 3: 90 Day Writing Challenge

October 20, 2013

You guys are going to get bored with me, because I’m still researching, but here’s why: 1. This is a research-heavy book.  There’s no way around that.  I’m writing some kind of sci-fi/dystopian madness here, and I’m a stickler for accuracy and details, so this means researching everything to death (I think I said this […]
