  • Writing into the abyss and charting a new course

    To paraphrase Dean Wesley Smith’s description of writing without an outline I’ve decided it feels more like “writing into the abyss” than “writing into the dark”. More dramatic I suppose, but hey, that’s me! 😉 Fun, lots of fun, scary and sometimes frustrating when I’ve got a glimpse of an idea of how the story…

        Day Eight of the “Blog Streak” and still have no idea of a better title for these posts. I’ll have a thought or two tomorrow about it while I’m thinking about next year. I remember so vividly – which is odd for me because I have the memory of a gnat – thinking…

    Thank God it’s Friday! Remember that saying? I can’t remember the last time I saw that anywhere… What happened? God used to be everywhere… now people act as if He’s not interested in the affairs of men. Writing this from my phone, so signing off for now. Hope all who read this have a wonderful,…

    Placeholder blog, to say that I’ve been on a streak. One more day and it will be a week! Yeah, doesn’t take much to make me happy, lol. Errands today, so got client work done late and of course the fiction suffered because I’ve got to get to bed so that I can get up…

    These two beasties are spending the night inside with us tonight! Very, very cold outside tonight, and while they do have an enclosed shed with lots of bedding in it, we didn’t want to take any chances so they’re sleeping in the house tonight. Should be interesting…these two have always been outside dogs, although we…

    So, another day in the “trenches” of a “working” at home mom. I put “working” in quotations because doesn’t every mom work when she’s at home? I do that kind of work AND client work, hence the quotes. 😀 Should have gotten my client work done by early afternoon, but nope, still have about an…

    Me again! Thank God for reminders…I would have forgotten to come here if it wasn’t for my calendar sending me a reminder. Thanks Google calendar! So, wrote just a bit last night before it got too late and had to toddle off to bed. If you read yesterday’s post you would have seen me wonder…

    Okay, definitely going to have to come up with a better title, but not until I’ve actually done the streak…and no, I don’t mean “The Streak”…remember that funny song? Dating myself, aren’t I? Sigh. Anyway, what I mean to say is that once I’ve had a good run of posting on my blog…some of which…

    Would you believe I won NaNoWriMo? Nah, me neither, lol. And, you would be right…I didn’t “win” but that’s okay, the timing just wasn’t right. But, that doesn’t mean I’m not trying to get into the “NaNoSpirit” every day by writing every day. Dean Wesley Smith calls it creating a “streak”. Just occurred to me…

    Is it already day 9? Ah, seems like it’s further. That’s both a good thing and a bad thing. It’s good because the month still isn’t over and I can keep working on my writing habit. It’s bad because I’ve not been writing every day. Ah well…focus on the positive, right? Could blame it on…
