I feel the next idea brewing. I'm not quite done with Arlyn's book, but I feel the new one rushing toward me with the same enthusiasm with Arlyn's did. I feel like they are related stories too, but I might have to start this one in order to finish Arlyn's. I can't quite help but … Continue reading Next up?
I’ve just spent two hours in a writing blaze. I do have over 2,000 words to show for it through. Wow. I was doing very well until I had to stop and look something up in Sword and Shield (book 6). I love the Seneca quotes. I really do think that I studies with Seneca … Continue reading Pulled in and falling
I’m very happy and excited to be writing Arlyn’s story. After I finished writing my blog a few nights ago when I mentioned that I was at a hard spot, I started considering the world and the characters. The world at this time is one without magic. There’s a secret organization struggling to survive. Mysteries … Continue reading Trust in action
I feel like I’m at a strange point in Arlyn‘s story. I’m just beyond that one-third point and I’m trying write through it. I feel like I’m missing something. I want something awesome, something to add an additional level to the story where readers who has gone through the Sacred Knight series will just be … Continue reading When a story can go any direction
I’m up to chapter 12 for Arlyn’s story. I feel myself slowing down a bit, but I know I’m hitting the one-third portion of the novel. It’s said that this is a point when many writers start to feel pressure on the story. Since I’m trying to pay attention to the stages of writing a … Continue reading One-third of the way
I am just speeding along with Arlyn's story. It is going utterly fantastic right now. Of course, I am in the first third of the story and still working on the setup. I'm trying to ignore the critical voice telling me that I'll slow down once I start to worry about where the story is … Continue reading Special scenes
I got far enough into Arlyn's story today that I had to make a hard decision. I had three choices about how this would go. I knew it would be one character, or another, or neither. So which is it? Well, I won't say here so that there aren't spoilers. But I will say that … Continue reading The creative voice strikes again
I finished watching Castle today. For a series that I so enjoyed, I am highly disappointed by the ending. Yes, I realized it was probably cancelled suddenly. I haven’t researched it to know; not sure I really care to know either. Still, bad. That just tops off a moody day for me. I really don’t … Continue reading In practice
I returned to my first story today. I figure I have about 6,000 words left to finish up this story. I really want to keep it on track to finish it this week. That means I can’t let myself get distracted by Arlyn’s story, no matter how much I want to go work on it. … Continue reading Sun drenched weeds
Okay, I confess: I’m having such a delightful time writing Arlyn’s story. I did start off dictating it this morning because I wanted to get through some words, but it ended up not working. I lost a bunch of time. While that did feel like a setback at first, it ended up being okay. I … Continue reading Delightful time
