Sunday Check In!

Sunday, April 6th, 2008

Don't forget to check in with Sven with your writing totals.

I did good this week — 12,665 words! Now I just need to keep up this pace if I want to finish the rough draft of my third demon book. Don't know if that's possible, because I just got revisions back for my second book, so a lot of my writing time is going to be pulled away to work on that. Still, if I can come even close to finishing the third book, I'll be happy.

Hope you're having a nice weekend!

are in two places — Fresh Fiction and Sven's place!

I'd love it if you'd come visit me at Fresh Fiction, where I'm discussing about research, and at Sven's, where I talk about gluing things to my husband's forehead…



Sunday Sven Check-In

Sunday, March 23rd, 2008

Don't forget to check in with your weekly writing totals over at Sven's!

I did okay, considering I was sick for most of the week. Almost 4K words, but I did spend a lot of time plotting and researching. My third demon book is set mainly in Egypt, so I've had to do TONS of research, not only on modern-day Egyptian settings, but on mythology behind some of the places my hero and heroine go, as well as research into the ancient people associated with those places.

So, um, if anyone out there has taken a trip to Alexandria or Aswan or has ridden the sleeping train that runs between those two cities, I could really, really use your help… *g*

Don't forget to stop by Sven's and list your totals!

I did pretty good this week — not stellar, but at least I made my goals!



Time To Sweat!

Saturday, March 1st, 2008

Sven's challenge starts today! You ready?



New Sven Challenge!!!!

Monday, February 11th, 2008

Okay, all you writers. Ready to sweat?

Because Sven is dusting off his weights, whips, and various other bits of, um, motivational equipment.

:shock:

The new 70-day challenge starts on March 1st, but it's technically going 77 days (building in an extra 7 days for those who are going to RT in April.)

I'm participating…and this one will be interesting. The fourth Sydney Croft book is due in May, so it needs to be written during the challenge. But I'm also going to write as much of my 3rd Demonica book as possible during the challenge. I'm hoping to get between 500 and 1000 words a day on Wraith's book (Wraith is my extremely troubled half-vampire, half-demon hero in book 3,) while at the same time working on The Taming (Syd book 4.) It's not going to be easy, but one of the benefits of writing with a partner is that while she's writing on the Croft book, I can be working on my own project. Thing is, Stephanie is FAST. So I don't usually have that much time to play with my own stuff. She can easily write a scene twice as fast as I can. I so envy her!

So anyway, for more information and to sign up for the new Sven challenge, click here. Go forth and SWEAT!
