How to Write a Novel, Ko-Fi Redraw Tomorrow, and in the Ohio Series Novel today … more questions, no answers
Cold-Engine Fiction I’ll begin with the fiction writing, which this morning started like a frozen engine with a dead battery. I ended up tinkering with a few worldbuilding questions, looking around in the MC’s newly discovered home library, and reading back through a couple of past chapters to figure out why the fact that Tori’s wandering…

Post-Vertigo: The Ohio Series, Novel One, and shifts in the story
Had a rough last couple of days due to BPPV, but thanks to the Half-Somersault Maneuver, today I’m okay again. And I had a great writing day, with a few caveats. I created a character in the first half of the book that has to go. This character would have (or COULD HAVE) made things…

The first Ko-Fi Rewards: Four of Five Winners have checked in.
FIRST… I’m still waiting to hear from ReadForU. SECOND… Evil Empire has declined the physical prize due to lack of space (so will get a non-physical prize of comparable value, if desired, and will go back into the drawing pool if no prize is wanted at this time). So there will be at least one…

First Rewards for my supporters announced on Ko-fi
My Ko-Fi account funds my fiction writing. At the moment it’s funding less than an hour a day, but I am getting close to hitting that first goal. So today I announced the first rewards. Anyone who has funded me on Ko-fi EVER (who is not a family member or one of my indie contractors)…

The Wishbone Conspiracy: Accidentally finished the novel today
This is awkward. You have plans when you’re writing a novel, you know what you’re writing toward, you’re moving along at your planned pace, doing your planned scenes, and you start writing a scene you know was coming and have been looking forward to writing… And your MUSE shows you a character you have been…

The Wishbone Conspiracy: 2014 words, and sneaking up on my ending
Today I discovered something I did not know — that the layered conspiracy that pulled Cady and her allies into danger did so with way more initial planning than I’d realized. That the horrifying crimes she uncovered and solved might have just been a convenient way for someone to get her in front of a…

Listing sponsor in the ACKS is automatic — to the point that if you don’t WANT to be in the Acknowledgements, you’ll need to let me know. But everything else I CAN do is under consideration,…
