Weekend Writing Sat-Sun (April 20th - 21st) Tag #wwab to join in.


This weekend I shall work on: Sorceress Series: Book Five. Word count is at 48, 266 total right now. I've been giving thought to turning this book into a 3rd POV, versus the 1st, but we shall see.

Tomorrow will be Dark Illusions: The Final Chapter and the total word count for this one is at: 52,341. 

The cleanup of Dark Illusions: The Beginning has been going well. I'm hoping it won't be much longer that it takes me to do the polishing (as my lovely editor called it). Going through and making a list of the things to look for specifically, has helped a lot in the editing and cleaning up phase.

If you haven't got your copy of Always Consequences from Smashwords yet, and you use something other than Kindle to read, I'd suggest getting your copy now. The book will be pulled around the 26th to make sure it's clear to upload into the Kindle Select KDP program on the 1st of May, until the 1st of August. You won't have a chance to purchase the book for anything but Kindle between that time, save for the paperback and hardback version. In the terms and conditions of the program, it does say you can sell the books in paperback, just not in digital anywhere else.


Baby Gremlin, Kaley - that toy she's cuddling isn't that large. Aw.


Saturday Updates: 
SORCERESS SERIES: BOOK FIVE
  • Starting at 48,266 words.
  • 1025 words so far
  • 1985 words. I've been writing in chapters that are in the middle of already written chapters so now I get to jump forward in time and continue on. Funny how I jump back and forth that way in some stories. When printing out my books, it's hard to follow, but not in the typing of. 
  • 3294 words.
  • I'm pretty much puttering, but here is a teaser for you. 
With that, I pulled myself free of his grip and turned my back on him. “I said what you want, don’t rub it in. And don’t think,” I turned around, “that things have changed.”
Riagan’s eyes glimmered in challenge. “I do not, my dear girl. I will conquer you. Eventually.”
“You’re a pain in my ass.”
“You wouldn’t have it any other way.”

  • Going to end the book tonight at 51,630 total. Ending early to watch The Hobbit.
Sunday Updates:
DARK ILLUSIONS: THE FINAL CHAPTER
  • Popping in at 52,341 words in the book so far. Happened to occur to me that I am editing and cleaning up Dark Illusions: The Beginning, on first edits for Dark Illusions: The Next Chapters, and then I am writing Dark Illusions: The Final Chapter. That amuses me to no end. Yes, I am amused by those wee tidbits. ;)
  • 1080 words and time for me to actually get dressed. :D
  • 4,109 and technically I'm only half dressed.
  • Total today 5,097 words and leaving the book at 57,540 words.

Ladies and Gentlemen….

Normally, right about now, I would feel inclined to continue with “and children of all ages” (guess I’ve been to the circus just one time too many) but this time instead of introducing some dancing bears or the Flying Wallendas, I’m simply here to introduce myself. My name is Tracie Dee . I’ve been writing for about 4 years now and got my start blogging on MySpace. I love writing but these days, I’m also finding enjoyment with vlogging. I have found that videos are a nice way to share what words alone might not give justice to and also for people to really get to know the person behind the words and the keyboard. Overall, I consider myself to be a pretty down to earth and upbeat person, whose sense of humor can be a bit wacky at times. Hey, life can be rough and sometimes laughter and levity can be our only saving grace to help us get through it all. I consider it to be our very own little light at the end of the tunnel that serves to remind us that even during the very worst

(GBE 2:Blog On) First Love

Old post being reposted. GBE2: Blog On's Topic this week is: First Love Click the link to find out what GBE2: Blog On is and how YOU can participate. If you love writing and/or blogging, it's the place to go! Great people, great fun, what more could you ask for? FIRST LOVE When I first saw the topic for this week's GBE2, my first thought was of the friendship I walked away from just last week. He was one of my first love's. But I had already talked about it on a previous web post so I wanted something different. I just didn't want to focus on it. Today, while I was doing dishes, a.k.a inspiring myself, I thought of a different first love. To myself. I do too. I love myself. I may not always like myself... I mean come on, if you had to live with her 24/7 she might drive you batty too. But I do love myself. People can tell you so. I don't need to. Well I did, but... I'm digressing. I'm quirky, crazy (two different things there obbb
