I love Holly!
Me and my Muse did some serious talking today and I think we see eye to eye now. At least it was very helpful in writing a quick and dirty synopsis allowing me to plot all the scenes in the book provided nothing else comes up. ๐ I honestly don’t think I could have done…

How it’s going
This past weekend I spent a lot of time on my plot. There were big gaps missing that I felt had to be dealt with or I wasn’t going to be able to continue writing. I had written a lot of the scenes that I felt were really fun. So that is when I went…

Completed today’s goal and then some
I have to tell you, when I finished last night at 287 words I was freaking. I figured there was no way I was going to make my quota. I’m a little daunted even now thinking about tomorrow and managing to get in the quota. BUT!…… Today’s finished word count by 2am (no I didn’t…
