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

By Anonymous

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.

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.

Silent relaxing sunday--wait it's Saturday. A day lost and found! :)

This week's   GBE   is about "Lost and Found." I know a lot of people some years back thought that I'd lost myself. I was even told it was the better part of myself. It took me years to figure out that it wasn't true. Somewhere in the back of my mind, I always believed it to be true. Until I finally had the courage to admit to myself, that they were in the wrong; not me.  That's the problem with some "friends." They aren't really your friends. Someone recently told me something that really hit home. It was profound even.  She said:  "The friend is not a friend. just a person with emotional gravity in your life."    Well that's true. Granted, the comment she had made was from a completely different happening, but still it works.  A lot of people are fortunate in having tons of close friends, even close friends that stick around their entire lifetime. I gave up on that notion a long time ago. I realized that mostly, friends w...

(GBE 2:Blog On) First Love

By
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...

(GBE2: Blog On) Let go of the reins and you'll know freedom

By
This week's (4th) GBE2: Blog On topic is "Control." For more info head here I admit it, I'm a type-A personality. It was a learned behavior. I felt as though I needed to be in constant control of everything around me. I worked 3 jobs and went for weeks on occasion without a day off. I still felt as though I wasn't doing enough. Not around the house, not with my friends, not for dating, not even for work. I just have always had this "I'm not doing enough" attitude instilled in me from a lot of the immediate people around me. So a lot of my behavior was ingrained so deep that I still suffer with that. I feel as though no matter what, I'm not doing enough, being the best I can be, and all of that great unhealthy attitude one should not have. But I do. And I know it's not good, but I still suffer with feeling inadequate because I am just not doing enough. Which is wrong. It's just something that I suffer with. I admit to it....
