I got nothin’
Not the most scintillating week. It can be summed up as hot and busy with a side of the return of Mel's stupid allergy that makes her itch. Phooey. However, we have plunged into the joy (oh hear the sarcasm) of revising and so far have staggered through the first six...
A few hours later
Well, we have partial WIKTORY over the lavender behemoth. It is pruned, if somewhat inelegantly. Which only leaves the problem of what to do with the pruned bits which have somehow expanded to take up about five times more space than they did on the bushes..... I...
Confessionals
2009 has been a year of feeling like there are too many balls in the air and not many of them staying up there very long. Writing has been up and down but seems to be smoothing out again (knock wood, cross fingers). Crafting has been mostly up which is good but kind...
Schmapped
No, that's not the noise one's brain makes just after finishing a book (that's more like zzzzzzzzzzzschnfargl), but today I found out that one of my photos has been included in Schmap's guide to Brisbane. . Mine's the pic of the lighthouse on the right. See, you never...
Done!
>Numfar (well, mostly me but Numfar in my mind) is doing the dance of joy. Because we can hereby declare draft zero done! Woot!Those of you reading along will no that it's been a long sloggy writing year for me and there were times where I felt like I'd never...
Almost there
Good writing day today. 23 pages in about two hours of writing (aka four half hour Write or Die sprints). I only have some sketchy bits about aftermath and then the final scene (which I've kind of had in my head all along) to write. So this baby might be done with...
Anyone gotta spare arm or two?
First of all a big WOOT! to the fabulous Keri, because her latest book is gonna be number six on the NYT next week. Let there be rejoicing throughout the land!!! Hopefully I might have some rejoicing of my own in a few more days...closing in on this draft now. Right...
The light at the end of the tunnel might not be a train after all
To misquote Josh Lyman horribly "I think we've got the big mo, baby". Passed the three hundred mark tonight. And I basically know what happens for the rest of the book. About four big scenes and some mopping up. So if I do the big push over the weekend, I might just...
Closing in
La book is approaching the three hundred page mark. Traditionally this is about the point where things pick up speed and I get to the end fairly quickly. I'd like to be done by the middle of the month, so fingers crossed. But for tonight, I'm done and given it's back...
Drive by updating
Nice lazy Monday. Wrote pages, went to see Whip It (fun move and those roller derby girls are very cool if somewhat nuts lol), napped, wrote more and then new Big Bang and Star Trek. What more could you want? Progress - Lily New pages - Eleven Intriguing things -...
