Well, I finished the draft for book two! Summoned to the Wilds took me 28 days with a pretty tight outline and a good feel for what needed to happen to get me to the ending. Here's my word count per day for the last month-ish: 2/24 - 54303/7 - 46063/17 - 43872/25 - 60353/8… Continue reading Second Draft, Faster Than The Last

#1LineWed – Theme: Banner
The thing about #1linewed is it makes me look very closely at a very small piece of writing. Sometimes I'm fine with just throwing up something that matches the theme, knowing I'll be editing those words in the future, and sometimes they even stay like that in the final draft. But this was one of… Continue reading #1LineWed – Theme: Banner
Oh, No, I’m In The Bad Place!
That's how it feels anyway when I get to this part in the writing process. I knew it was coming eventually, so I'm prepared, but it's annoying nonetheless. This is the part where I look at everything, and I go "Oh, ew, no, bad, yuck, throw it all away!" I won't throw it all away… Continue reading Oh, No, I’m In The Bad Place!

Would it be a fantasy romance novel about the son of a demon lord without ravens? I don't think so!
So, I Finished A Draft In Record Time
I mean...wow, go me. And it makes sense; this book had the clearest, concisest outline I've ever done even though I hacked it to absolute bits at the end of last month when I decided that this standalone, planned out to be about 80k words total, was going to be blown up into a 300k+… Continue reading So, I Finished A Draft In Record Time
#1LineWed – Theme: This
This might make no sense out of context. but I think I've posted the context as an excerpt before? Regardless, edits and new ideas change early drafts, and so he is one of my interminable sentences stuffed up against one of my teeny, tiny ones, a favorite combo. Mini update: holy shit things are going… Continue reading #1LineWed – Theme: This
#1LineWed – Theme: So
This draft surprises me every day which is a good stage to be in. Shall we throw in a little touch deprivation and see what that does? Why the fuck not?
Today I Feel Awful, But I’m Doing Great
I don't know why my body insists on alerting me when I'm ovulating to the point I am crippled yet won't let any of my other baby-making parts work? It's incredibly rude. But here I am, barely functioning on about three hours of sleep because some-ovary has decided to be a total and utter bitch… Continue reading Today I Feel Awful, But I’m Doing Great
