If you’re a frequent visitor to this blog, you’ll notice that the Personal Writing Challenge page is gone. Why is that? Well, I’ve decided to keep my writing journey separate from this website.

Personal Writing Challenge 2nd Quarter
2nd Quarter PWC Word Count: If you’ve been following my blog for a while, you’ll notice I’m a goal-oriented kind of gal. When I don’t have a word count to move toward, I tend to panic a bit and flounder. I won’t say I work best under pressure, but I’ll work until my fingers bleed., [...]

Are you setting goals for 2009?

It keeps me honest and forces me to be accountable more often so I’ll be less likely to procrastinate. My writing goals: 1200-1400 words a [...]

Writing Update
Happy NaNoWriMo! I hope everyone’s doing well. This past week was fraught with challenges and I persevered! BURN OUT was submitted to Liquid Silver Books for their Romantic Suspense anthology. The announcement said no word would be released until the 17th of the month so we’ll see by next week. I also completed edits on [...]

To Clear the Confusion
On my PWC update Sunday, I had two word counts. One for NaNoWriMo and the other for my overall challenge. I am following the NaNo rules strictly. All new content, a brand new wip, first word written on November 1st. In order to reach my goal for that book (in NaNo-I want 75K) by November [...]

Day 2 Nano…Whiskey Straight Update
NaNo Day 2 Word Count: 5,007 on Blood Harvest! Whoohooo! November 2, 2008 Word Count for the PWC: I’ve got a lot of words written. Edits and additional words on Non-NaNo projects. *shrugs shoulders* If I tell myself I have to get through NaNo and then work on other stuff, the words flow easier. My [...]
