After struggling through some chapters, I finally got to an easier writing patch. It felt good to be able to writing without struggle for a bit. Writing is getting a bit overwhelming because I feel like my story has a lot to get through in not very many days. I know I’ll add a lot [...]

Oh yeah! Who got ahead for tomorrow. Nothing was getting in the way of me and Harry Potter so I finished my writing for tomorrow tonight. Still a little bit ahead. I got inspired by some of the advice that Holly Black put up today to the NaNoWriMo’s. The piece of advice that hit me [...]

Sorry I’ve been absent so long. I got behind two days and then have been playing catch up so haven’t had a chance to update on here for a while. Finally last night I caught back up. Trying to get ahead so I wouldn’t fall behind when I go see Harry Potter this weekend. Anyone [...]

Done and done. Well for the day at least. Luckily last night I got ahead so today’s writing was pie. Hitting the 10,000 mark felt really good. It made me laugh thinking about how back in college writing a 5,000 word paper seemed daunting at times. So far this has felt fairly easy. Hoping that [...]

Oh the turns that writing a novel can take you on. As I got to thinking about the direction my book was going, I realize it was heading in to subject I never imagined I would write about. It has become about quantum physics, esoteric cosmology, and scythian warriors. No, I am not kidding. Now [...]

Close call this time but I made my word count! Struggled a little bit today mostly because A) I was extremely tired from having a long shift on my first day back from vacation in combination with being tired from Bayside/Senses Fail last night, and B) I kind of wanted to go out to the [...]
