Crazy Writing Week – Day 2

I’m back fresh from my night of writing. I’m super excited that I was able to finish up Wizard’s Thief. My goals for today are:

  • mail submission to agent :D
  • do edits/read through of Wizard’s Thief
  • try and add 800 words to The Bond That Heals Us

Update – Crazy Writing Week Day One

As my husband would say, “I’m so le tired”!

It’s almost midnight, but I can happily report that I have finished Wizard’s Thief!! I managed to write just over 9000 words in a day and a half. Tomorrow I plan on tackling the edits and any necessary clean up. Let’s hope it doesn’t need too much surgery.

The Bond That Ties Us – Four Roses!

Woohoo!! The Bond That Ties Us got a four rose review from My Book Cravings. Thanks to Robin S for the wonderful comments. I’m so glad you enjoyed it!

You can check out the complete review here. :D

Crazy Writing Week – Day one

Okay, I’m officially dubbing this Crazy Writing Week. I’m looking forward to getting lots accomplished. Last night, I wrote for four hours and managed to get a huge chunk , about 3000 words, done on Wizard’s Thief (I really need to get a better name for it). I have less than 8000 words to go and plan to get another huge bit done today.

But before I can do any writing today, I have to print off a submission for an agent. Once I get that done and in the mail, I’m going to lock myself in a room and write. Or maybe outside on the deck, as it’s nice out. I’ll give you all an update on how I’m doing later tonight. :D

Brace for the insantiy. :D

Back To Normal…Sunday Goals!

I’m back from vacation and ready to buckle down and do some serious writing (right after I mow the lawn and buy groceries :D )! 

It seems like  it’s been forever since I’ve listed any goals. I haven’t been slacking, honest!! The Bond That Heals Us is done and about 800 words shy of my 70,000 word goal. I plan on adding one additonal scene and that should push it over the cusp. 

I’m very lucky that I have this week off. I plan on writing eight hours a day (crazy I know) and try to make as much headway on all of the writing projects that I have out there on the go right now. So I’m going to be setting some lofty goals for myself this week.

  • Add 800 words to The Bond That Heals Us – send to editor
  • Add 10,000 words to Wizard’s Thief – I’m going to be submitting this as a novella for EC’s Jewel of the Nile series and want to finish it.
  • Transcribe the prologue and chapter one of my new urban romance
  • If I have any time left, finish the novella that I have entered into the Brava contest. :D

I’ve also been plotting out Taber’s story for those of you who are interested. I’ve settled on a title too…The Bond That Consumes Us. :D If and only if I get everything else done, I might sit down and write out chapter one. Problem is, once I start on Taber everything else is going to get pushed aside. I’m loving his plot already…
