Daily Word Count – Feb 18, 2016

This week it’s all about Witness to the Moon. Currently doing one story one week, then shifting to another the next week, and back. Working on the cover to include with these posts.

Word count I started the day with: 50,507. Wrote for 45 minutes or so. Ended the day at: 50,990.

Goal for this book is around 90K.

Total for the day: 483 words

On my mind

Not too many words today. Not too concerned. I only had a few minutes to spare and wanted to take advantage of them. The dogs were cutting up and everything has been all bonkers today. Drawback of waking up late, but if my body needs the sleep, I won’t get down on my words for the day. I only get frustrated because then everything in the day gets pushed back, or I lose time in an activity I enjoy, which is generally reading before bedtime. I don’t cut the time I go to bed. If I don’t sleep as much as I need the PTSD starts to act up. It’s a balancing act for me.

Page is up for the short story I was talking about.

I changed the title to At Night They Come (click title for page) because I searched the title I had and found a movie that had been made in 2014. Now, I don’t mind having a duplicate title, but I don’t like having something that close to another story that is so recent. If you ever notice a similarity in something that I post before it’s published, please let me know. I try not to duplicate things too much. I know it can’t be helped, but that’s a pet peeve of mine. I try to avoid doing that if I can.

Still working on ideas for the cover for Witness to the Moon. If you want to offer your thoughts, I would love them on the covers. I’m fixing to upload the other two ideas I’m working here shortly. There may be three. ETA: I finished the cover today. Found the perfect images, I’m calling it official, so you can check out the page and see it. :) Witness to the Moon.

Why do this & can you participate? Answer.

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

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

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....
