Reaching new heights in this Universe

By Unknown

Official CoverWorking on Witness to the Moon this week. I’m definitely gonna be working on this for another week. There are places I need to go that I won’t reach tomorrow.

New information is being learned in the story right now and I’m working through the character’s thoughts and reactions on said information.

 

Not sure if you’d be interested in checking it out, but Dean Welsey Smith (who inspired this chronicling of the writing and such every day) is doing a blog series right now on how to write a novel in 7 days. No kidding. His plan is to increase the words by 1000 every day, until he finishes the novel. The start is 3000 words.

Stop by his website (http://ift.tt/1eIsZzg) and you can check out his posts. Yesterday he posted the prologue to the story and today was the start of the challenge.

I’m trying to get a major boost on the edits for Daughter of the Red Planet today because I’ve been changing and adding details before Jeanie gives it a run though. I was hoping to finish it and get that to her by this weekend, but with all the edits and such, I think it’ll be another few days to a week before that happens.

Tracie Dee posted another great article earlier this morning on this site. Give it a read and comment – http://ift.tt/1UOh6h1

 

Have you checked out the free preview of Blood By Night?

Goal for this book is around 80K for writing only (editing I put in a lot of words).

Total for the day: 1823 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

Bucket Lists

"Its never too late to be what you might have been" – George Eliot I’ve been a late bloomer in pretty much every aspect of my life. Some of it was out of my control (I mean I really couldn’t help if Mother Nature has a twisted sense of humor and exercised it heavily on me during my teens and twenties) but I can’t put all of the blame for it on her, either. Some of it was also by my personal choice. And by that, I mean I used to be very shy and afraid of “what was out there” in the big, scary world so I would rarely try anything new or took any chances of any kind. I chose instead to do my best to hide away from life, tucking myself away from it safely like a tight little rosebud that had not yet bloomed. But there is a quote that says “And the time came when the risk to remain tight in a bud was more painful than the risk it took to blossom.” This was the case for me. As time went on, my rosebud shell grew more and more uncomfortable for me. So one day I just took a c

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
