Good news post

This week kinda got away from me. I meant to post earlier. Anyway, my good news…drum roll…
Another sale! It’s my cat-shifter book, entitled Puma. Set in the same world as my Strength books, though only Trey Walters makes a reappearance. Slated for the end of 2008. I’m way excited :)

More chapters achieved

Okay, I’m not producing a chapter a day, more like a chapter every two days. But that is fine and good. Today was a particularly good day at 2200 words, yesterday a no-go. But I just need steady production. If I average 1000 words a day, I’ll have a novel by March break and that [...]

Synopsis

Well, that is just about the most incoherent thing I have ever written.
On the plus side, it’s almost three pages, one of the longer synopses I’ve written. That is a plus, right? Maybe?
It would be easier to learn to write a novel in four weeks. I should try not to find that idea hilarious.

Learning

New skill that I must learn: how to write a synopsis after three chapters of a book have been written.
This is called a proposal. Writers do this. I must do this.

Year in review: reading

Thirteen days late, but I wanted to look back at my reading this past year.
Number of books read: 38
More than half of those were romance. Not surprising! And in fact, most of the other books have significant romantic elements. I had actually thought I’d read more urban fantasy, but I guess it’s just been Patricia [...]
