Scheduled Snippet

I’m not here today! But I feel sorry for anyone who would expect a Friday Snippet and not get one, so here is a short section (that I just wrote) from my WIP. (Oooh, shiny! Brand new fiction! Probable typos and maybe even grammatical errors! Heh. Be gentle.) Have a great weekend everyone! “I am [...]

August Snippet the First ~ 8.6.2010

This week’s snippet follows off of one two snippets ago, in which we met the girl. It actually follows on that one in the same scene, without the jump to last week’s snippet in between. This is after Lindra’s been challenged by her archery tutor to prove her skill and has succeeded. Beyond that, there’s [...]

Friday Snippet ~ 7.30.10

Here’s another snippet, this one going back to the bit I posted on the 9th. It’s from the beginning of a story that I’m working on at the moment, the one that was the first story I ever really worked on. Of course, this is the current iteration and not the original, over-ten-year-old one. I’m [...]

Friday Snippet, and Frustrations

I’ll go with the frustrations first. I’m getting highly annoyed at AOL. I set up an AOL account purely for the purpose of using it for my blog e-mails, and now it’s getting shunted into spam folders when I use that account to comment on other blogs. (Some, anyway.) HIGHLY annoying. So I’m thinking of [...]

Friday Snippet – 07.09.2010

Here’s a snippet. Just because I can. This is from a fantasy story I’m working on (E1, if you want to know) and I’m enjoying it. No background is needed, really, or will be provided, because I’m considering starting the novel with this. Haven’t decided yet, but very strongly considering… Anyway, happy Friday, and enjoy! [...]

June Is Busting Out All Over!

. . . because I’m a theatre geek, I couldn’t resist the song title for today’s post, even if it has nothing to do with the post itself. Except that it’s now June, which means June goals instead of May ones. Before I get to the new goals, though, a quick note on the old [...]

Keepin’ Up The Goalposts

Just a quickie post today… but don’t forget to enter my blog contest, going on through the end of the month! For an extra chance to enter today, leave me a comment with suggestions for how to actually FOLLOW UP on goals you make… Any tips you have that I might be able to implement [...]

Mid-May Goalpost

Here’s a quickie post for today with my progress on my goals. Don’t forget to see Friday’s post for my current contest! 1. Finish the full-novel beta review I have outstanding for an OWG friend. – due 5/5/10 Done! 2. Finish the beta review of Kelley Armstrong’s THE GATHERING. – due 5/15/10 Done! 3. Re-read [...]

May Goalpost

Ah, don’t we all love (hate) events that change schedules? Mine is so messed up these days I don’t even know what day it is… And not knowing what day it is tends to be bad for blog posts. I will try to get a book review posted next Tuesday, but I don’t have one [...]

Writing WiPs Don’t Have Pictures

…so I’ll share an xkcd with you instead. Sometimes this is where I feel like my writing is going. All these pieces with straight edges trying to line up on a curved surface. Or sometimes, the other way ’round — but it doesn’t make the pieces fit any easier. Now, mind you, I’m not giving [...]
