The New Year starts!

New Year's slipped by and I forgot to post a new blog. Ah, well, it's not often I get a day off during the week and I spent it enjoying myself. I definitely needed to take care of myself.

On the front this week is working through edits for Supernatural Colorado and catching up royalty statements. Though I doubt I made any money this year, it will be interesting to see how I did.

I'm also looking forward to the first meeting with my writing group, Word for the Journey. The format and meeting place have both changed. It will be lovely to see how it goes.

NaNoWriMo - Week 2

I am happy to report that I have written a little over 10,000 words so far. Winter Emergence is now about to the halfway point. I'm using NaNoWriMo to push myself to finish the book.

I've also been watching the progress of my fellow writers. They're doing well and pretty happy with their progress so far.

I have taken time off to do things like job hunt, go to interviews and attend a job fair. I also went to my writers group, Words for the Journey. Very glad I did. I had a good time and enjoyed catching up with various folks.

A Quiet Week

This has been a quiet writing week. I did attend my writer's group, Words for the Journey, and learned all about how writers are also speakers. It was interesting and another business side of what a writer does. That having product to sell also helps which can range from CDs with recorded presentations o them, calendars, books, and anything else one can can come up with.

I read a few more stories for Different Dragons.

But mostly, I either worked my full-time job or ran household errands. I did have a super hero Saturday where I watched, Hulk, Thor, Iron Man 2 & The Avengers. I then watched the first Alien movie.

We also had an Arctic cold front drop down on us. Burrrr! All I really want to do is dress warm, cuddle under a warm quilt, and drink hot tea. Who wouldn't?

What I'm doing instead is catching up my blogs for another week and attending to more household duties.

My, what an exciting life we writers lead!
