A couple of days ago, Shamrokon tweeted: Just 99 days to go. I stared at the tweet for a moment, and then panicked for a moment. Let’s just say I’ll be busy this summer. I’m revising the Wild Hunt, which keeps on growing to Thrizah and Kari’s delight. But being told ” More is good, […]
”Selfpublishing is better.” ” Selfpublishing is the only path.” I’ve lost count on how many times I have read things like that, both in blogposts and in comments.. Don’t get me wrong, I can understand why selfpublishing is appealing, but for me it is more complex than that. When I consider which stories I’ll […]
I don’t watch much TV. I intend to, but well, I haven’t gotten around to getting Cable TV yet. This weekend I was at mum’s and I happened to turn on Viasat History. And there was a fascinating Documentary called Your Inner Fish. It is about how Mammals and Humans have evolved during the millennias, […]
I went offline during easter, and revised a whopping 11 000 words. After I got home it has been slower though. Part of it is because I’ve had health issues and part of it is because I need to recharge. ( That’s always the case for me. ) But I’m slogging along on the revisions […]
Tomorrow I’m off for a weeklong writing retreat without no internet ( Ok, I’m off to our summer cottage w crappy reception, so I left my internet hotspot at home). I’m really looking forward to it. I’ve wanted to solely focus on the writing ever since I began working. I’m having realistic goals,though. So […]
This week… has been bad healthwise. Here’s hoping that the next week is better. Actually, it should be since I have the whole week off. Aah. The plan is to spend the whole week revising The Wild Hunt. The revisions is going fine, just very slow. One reason they are going slow, is the fact […]
Ever since I got a call from Dad, asking if I was interested in a job, my life has been in a slight chaos. To be fair, it isn’t the day job. It is just that the rest of my family don’t seem to realise that I’m working part time and in my spare time, […]
I’m working on setting up The Wild Hunt in Scrivener to begin revising it . Sadly, the opening scene will need to be extensively rewritten, since it isn’t the opening scene anymore. Anyway, here is a snippet that I like. The wooden floor was cold and hard against her back. Pain and sorrow whirled […]
I think I have a bit better grip on working part-time and writing now. Which is a relief, since I signed up for Before You hit Send, which starts tomorrow. I’m so looking forward to it, I’ve wanted to take it for a long time but I lacked the money. I’ve decided to […]
I began a new job three weeks ago, and I’m struggling to find a balance. Before I begun this job, I had been unemployed for a long time. And while it was hard on the economy, it was glorious from a writing perspective. I could spend my days writing. Except now I suddenly can’t. On […]
