Renting Space in My Head

Lately, when I’m not writing, I’m thinking about my character and what she’s going to do next. She’s constantly telling me things- she wouldn’t wear that, she doesn’t talk like that, she’s a prankster, she kicks ass. Blah, blah, blah. As a matter of fact, the only time she seems to leave me alone is when I’m writing about her life.

It has begun…

I’m pounding words out until my eyes cross. I have a plan, and I’m working it. But my characters seem to be on a different page (pun intended).

Enough With The New Already…

I used the word “new” twice last week in post titles.
My new favorite thing and my new obsession.
A bit of overkill, I confess, but that is what happens when I get excited about stuff.
And I have to tell you, I have been excited about digital media for some time. I am in love with all things gadgety and portable.
Marry that with my love for the written word, and you can quickly surmise that I am now a bit giddy for e-books.
And I am. Not just reading them, but also writing …

I found InkyGirl a little over a month ago, and I really love her stuff.

really.
The writing/editing is finished.
Just working on some formatting/appearance stuff.
Hoping to upload tomorrow.
That’ll teach me about announcing deadlines.
Sigh.

See What Had Happened Was…

Josette has called me several times over the past few weeks to remind me that I have not posted the rest of Riding The Wave (in case I didn’t remember).

I had every intention of finishing it.

But stuff happened, and i lost the energy for it…..

The Need For Speed

I’m in the middle of a project, and I only want speedy days. Because the ideas are lining up like planes on a runway, and I don’t want one to take off without me.

What I’m Working With

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.

The Bitch is Back

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 …
