WIP
Word Count and Counting
I’m at 17,717 words on my cozy mystery which should end up being close to 70,000. I’m making slow progress, but at least it’s progress. I took the advice of Randy Ingermanson and allowed my self to be bad. My last couple of chapters have been bad! But at least the skeleton of the story…
1670
No, not the year, the number of NEW words I’ve written today on my cozy mystery! The scenes just flowed. Of course, by the time edits come around it might be all garbage, but at least the juice is flowing. Too bad I had to get hungry and use the lady’s room. Who knows how…
I Did It!!
I sent in my Genesis entry at 12:10 am on the 14th!!! I can’t believe I’ve been sitting at this computer since 2:30 this afternoon, er…yesterday after noon with only a couple of snuggle breaks for my neglected four year old, several more bathroom break and a quick break for dinner! And all the time…
He is Risen Journey to Jerusalem
The following is an exerpt from my very first WIP written before I actually knew how to write a novel. It’s been cleaned up a bit, but still not ready to send out into the world, yet I wanted to share a few scenes with you because I researched the crucifixion in detail and want…
Anthology Project Finished
I turned in my chapter one to my mystery anthology partners and now it’s out of my hands! I really loved working on this project with these ladies. It was an answer to a long awaited prayer and a part of me is sad to see this part of it ending. The next thing to…
I’m Back…
from my weekend of writing and exceeded my goal of 10,000. Plus I FINISHED my mystery novella. Of course it still needs a lot of work, but the hard part is over. Or is it? This is really only the second WIP I’ve completed, and I never even edited the first one. Writing a mystery…
Mystery Novella
I’ve been working on a mystery novella for a couple of months with a great group of gals from my critique group. When this opportunity came about I dropped my current WIPs and jumped at the chance. In fact, it was something I’d been praying specifically for (among other things.) I’m not a huge fan…
When is Enough Editing, Really Enough?
I’ve been working on the same WIP, no the same prologue for almost two years now. I’ve entered it in contests and got critiques. My crit partners have bleed all over my pages and it was even critiqued by an agent. All had great things to say. And with every critique I made changes. I…
Starting to Feel the Stress
Yesterday I used my Mother’s Day gift certificate and spent two glorious hours getting pampered from head to toe with a body and face renewal. I was so relaxed when I got home, it was easy to fall asleep. Well, today the stress of the upcoming ACFW conference is hitting. Many of you know I…
