Happy New Year to All My Bloggy Friends!
I hope your 2010 is the best year yet. Keep smiling and have faith and hope that your New Year will be better, and I promise the positive attitude will deliver.
Here’s to 2010!
Recorded TV During NaNo
I had to seriously give up television for the most part during November, or I feared I would never make my word count goals. I didn’t have a DVR during November of last year, because we were switching companies and we shut the first one off too early, and it took two weeks for them [...]
My Last Hurrah Before NaNoWriMo
My best friend Amy’s husband is in a popular local band, Whiskey Dixon and I go to most of the gigs. I traveled with the band to Decatur, Illinois one last time this weekend, before entering into NaNoWriMo mode. They don’t get what I’m doing, but they know I won’t be around for a few [...]
NaNoWriMo Forums Are Up and Running
Man, you would have thought I’d lost my best friend last night. I was lost without the forums, as the team took them down to clean them and revamp the site. It looks great now, but I was miserable last night. LOL
I’m so excited for NaNoWriMo ‘09 and so ready for it to be November [...]
Just for Fun – Write or Die
I decided to play around with Write or Die this morning. I have been meaning to actually “use” it rather than just play with it, for some time. So I decided to write 1667 words, as if it was a typical November day. Well, I did it!!
See!

I only paused once, and I’m pretty [...]
Gearing Up For NaNoWriMo
Yes, it’s another NaNo post. I am so anxious for November it’s making me crazy. I love the adrenaline rush of participating so I cannot wait to get there. I cannot believe it is just over a month away.
Don’t worry, I’ll obsess about it until November, write like a maniac during November, and then shut [...]
Library Book Obsession
It’s a no brainer when you walk into our house, no questions need to be asked, it is not subtle. It is obvious. Our family has an obsession with books. With four book shelves in our living room alone, filled to overflowing with books, it is probably one of the first things people notice when [...]
Is the Book Better?
It’s funny because I have heard people say for years that the book is better than the movie. Of course, I typically hear this about a movie I’ve seen, but a book I haven’t read. I always wondered how someone could say the book was better than the movie, especially when for the most part, [...]
Are You a Sesquipedalian?
If you aren’t a writer, you might now know what that is, and it probably sounds like some kind of disease or something. But don’t a lot of those big words? So what is a Sesquipedalian? It is basically a strange big word for someone that likes using big words. I actually am, but I [...]
Genre Jumping
When you are writing, do you ever find yourself jumping genre’s? I am one of those writer’s who feels very confident that I could write in almost any genre, however I do feel that some genre’s are easier for me to write.
Another thing I noticed, is that I tend to read from genre’s that I [...]
