Blindsided by Story

Friday, December 28th, 2007

Working on The Silver Door, (Moon & Sun II, eleventy-somethingth title), and the coolest thing happened. I was filling in plot cards for the next section. Already had the card titles for everything, and I thought I knew who this one guy was.

Something Amiss

Thursday, December 27th, 2007

If you received the following issue, please let me know.

So How About Quitting […]

Look, nobody’s perfect, okay? I […]

Ears

Thursday, December 13th, 2007

I really want to know who to blame for ear design. They’re okay when you’re upright. Not great. They don’t swivel so you can’t hone in on interesting sounds. They’re not very sensitive even at the best of times and with the best of ears.
But when you lie down, if you sleep on your […]

Almost Done With Writing Discipline

Saturday, December 8th, 2007

I’ve written just over 3000 words today, and How to Find Your Writing Discipline is about finished. I’ll wrap writing tomorrow and polish on Monday, with the goal of having the workshop downloadable by late Monday afternoon or Tuesday of next week.
This is my system for getting a whole lot of writing done while […]
