New projects abound.  I’ve got more ideas than I have time.  But the funny thing is, I’ve been using pen and paper more than I’ve used my beloved Mac lately.  Don’t know what that’s about, but the words have been flowing, and that is what we writers crave.
Here are a few pics of my favorite work tools- just cause.

Yes, I do use multiple notebooks.  Don’t judge me.
One is blue ink and one is black ink.  Duh.

And of course, my beloved.
So, it’s back to less talking about writing and more writing. …

OK, so my friend T has more books than I can shake a stick at.  Her den will induce book envy in even the most die-hard bibliophile.  But the coup de’ gras is her guest bathroom.She has a bookshelf of an appropriate size loaded with cool reading material.
When The Man and I consolidated homes (i.e., moved in together) the question of what to do with all of my books came up.  Basically, he didn’t think it was cool for me to keep them in boxes and piles in the living …

Love the song by Elton John.  Plus I just love catchy post titles.
I’m back.
A little sad some days.
A little twisted at times.
But here, nonetheless.
Should make for very interesting writing.
I know that I need to finish Riding The Wave for you guys.  In fact, it’s all plotted out.  Just need to do the actual “writing” part.  And I will.  I promise I will.  I may give you one big, long ending, instead of a few “bytes” here and there.  We’ll see.  I do what my muse tells me these days. And …

No posts for the past week.
No pic today.
Real life has been happening and on July 30th it caught up with me and slowed things down to a crawl.
It’s Monday morning, and I’m getting back to life as I know it.  Which includes writing. And finishing my serial story.
Just wanted to give you guys a heads up.
And thanks to everyone who supported my family after the loss of my sister. It really meant a lot to us.
Stephanie (Riding The Wave) and her “little problem” are back on Wednesday.

Earlier in the month, I mentioned a WIP that I actually plotted from beginning to end in one long stretch of an evening.
Well, I’m happy to say that you’ll be able to read Riding The Wave on Monday.  August will be all fiction, all the time at DFB.
Riding The Wave is about a woman in the middle of several life changes when she starts experiencing involuntary orgasms.  If I say much more, then you won’t have any reason to come back next month and read my story, now will …

thanks for your show about nothing.
It paved the way for internet navel gazing- also known as personal blogging. I believe in giving credit where it’s due.
I’m not hating (seeing as I fit into this category).
Just drawing some obvious conclusions.
Sincerely,
Diva
It’s Tuesday.  I’m trying to finish some fiction for the website for August, as well as make money to pay bills.  What do you want from me?

Because of my consulting gig, I  travel back and forth from Charleston to Columbia for meetings, which means that I have a lot of time in the car.  Alone.
This is fine.  I listen to the TJMS if it’s morning, or my iPod.
Sometimes, I just drive in silence and think. Yes, I still actually have the ability to do that.
And writing is ALWAYS on my mind.
The theme for this week is censorship.  And I’ve been mentally checking myself and my writing for ways that I censor.
Here is my list:

I only hit …

I have just spent 6 of the last 8 and a half hours plotting my WIP. Yep, while The Man was putting up shelves to help reduce the piles of books on the living room floor, I was letting my creative juices flow.
Hmm.  Umm.  What I mean is, the story that I have been mulling over for the last few days started coming together in my head in a very real way.
Usually, I know how a story begins and ends.  I sit down to write, and I assume that the …

 I love reading books that move quickly.  The twists and turns as the heroine moves along her path keep me involved in the story and anticipating what comes next.
Reading a well-written page turner is one thing.  Writing a well-written page turner is a whole ‘nother thing altogether.  
I have been struggling with the plot of a new WIP for a couple of weeks now.  So, instead of writing, I started reading lots of stuff about novel plotting.  I just ended up reading the same information over and over with no …

So, I got over 50 requests for submission guidelines, and so far, two submissions.  
Writers still wanted.  
I’m just saying.
