Yet again, NanoToons manages to capture precisely how I feel. It’s November 1st, and yes! I’m doing NaNoToons again for NaNoWriMo. For those who have been following NaNoToons for years, you may have noticed I didn’t do them for October. I didn’t even have one for October 31st, which I normally do. I was evenContinueContinue reading “And so it begins”

The Start of (Another) Journey
Yup, folks – this is it – another National Novel Writing Month approaching fast! I have convinced at least one of my friends to join me in this venture (finally!) and we have mutually agreed to write completely sappy romance novels. You know the type – like Love Inspired books, where the story line isContinueContinue reading “The Start of (Another) Journey”
Magic and Literary Festivals
Some people are upset when fall days are not crisp and cool, befitting the colors on the trees. But days like this, with the sun shining down as though it were spring filled with hope rather than an upcoming, cold and dark winter, fill me with such joy. You cannot beat the feel of theContinueContinue reading “Magic and Literary Festivals”
NaNoWriMo Progress – or lack thereof
Last year I was so good about writing multiple times during NaNo. It rather kept me going, you know, feeling like people were enjoying keeping up with my progress, whether it was true or not. 🙂 This year. Well, I got a very good start, as you know. And I was actually quite good atContinueContinue reading “NaNoWriMo Progress – or lack thereof”
NaNoWriMo Begins!
It is officially NaNoWriMo! So,to celebrate it, I am sharing the November 1st NaNoToons – because they are the best. And, although I was up past midnight last night, no I did not start writing. But I don’t feel guilty. You know why? Because Daniel is bringing me to a wine/coffee bar tonight specifically toContinueContinue reading “NaNoWriMo Begins!”
NaNo, Photos, and Books
One more day to NaNoWriMo!!! Am I scared, you ask? Why yes, yes I am. Terrified that I am going to sit in front of my keyboard and have absolutely nothing to say. But I’ve won NaNo twice in a row now, and I am determined to make it a third! And if there isContinueContinue reading “NaNo, Photos, and Books”
NaNoWriMo WINNER 2015
It is official! Against all odds, I have won NaNoWriMo for the second year in a row! Oh, the book is by no means done. No, apparently I don’t write 50,000 word novels. I just start with that. Because based on how the story is going, I am pretty sure I am only halfway done.ContinueContinue reading “NaNoWriMo WINNER 2015”
NaNoWriMo Woes
Okay, am I the only one who begins a novel, with only the vaguest of ideas as to what I want to do? I know that I want to place this guy in the fantasy world. I know I want him to go through a bunch of fairytale-like adventures. A castle, a dragon, a troll,ContinueContinue reading “NaNoWriMo Woes”
Writing with a Friend
This makes me wish I had a friend nearby who also liked to write. Granted, we might just spend the evening commiserating on how we aren’t writing anything and will never make 50,000 words, but still – it is the thought that counts!
Book Giveaway!!
Update: It has been conveyed to me via a reliable resource that I need to clarify a couple things. One: This is a giveaway just on this blog, not nationally – so if only one person comments on this post, they WILL get the e-book. If three people comment, then I will draw names betweenContinueContinue reading “Book Giveaway!!”
