Make sure you head over to Sven’s place if you’re participating in the challenge and let us know your progress!
You know, math has never been my thing - I just don’t think in math terms. I think in, OMG, I want to write the entire book today, terms. Which is what can really […]

It’s Sweating with Sven time again!
I’m dealing with revisions on one book right now and soon to be headed into CEs and Galleys on others. But at the same time I’m about to jump into a first draft - writing something new – something fresh and shiny and gloriously fun. Something […]

Lots of writing these days…seems like as soon as something gets turned in there are more revisions on something else. I’m excited to get back into Nick’s book, into the actual writing - I’ve actually forgotten the story, which is nice - it means I get to go into it with fresh eyes.
In […]

Don’t forget to go check in at Sven’s to post your progress - that’s where I’ll pick the winner from for this week’s prize, which will include backlist copies of my books as well as Alison Kent and others. I just have to pull them off the shelves.
We officially end on Wednesday, and all […]

I think the key is consistency. I’m not a SEAL and I’m not an FBI agent, and even with years of research, I’m still going to get some details wrong….I believe that as a fiction writer my job is to entertain. Thus, I’m always walking a tight rope between accuracy and entertainment.

Have just been and and
Chocolate is brain food, no?
Proposal is finally shaping up. Need to look to Blaze and novella edits (times 2). And Syd book 3.
It’s all coming along. And I put my favorite poem up over at Sven’s site!

Sven has his own website now! Today’s inspy post is over at Alison’s blog, but then you need to go to Sven’s place and post your progress and the URL for your blog / site if you’ve got one. And then you’ll get listed on the sidebar over there as participating in the […]

Migraine today. I knew it was coming from 2 nights ago, thanks to my aura of smelling things that aren’t really there. Witness the conversation the other night at 1AM:
Me: Do you smell something burning?
Zoo: (woken from dead sleep) No.
Me: Smells like rubber burning. Like, maybe the air conditioning […]

*warning - post being made under the influence of a very, very large iced coffee plus a cup of regular coffee. And two donuts*
So Larissa was talking the other day about having an ‘off’ day since I had the Syd novella to work on. Normally, with a full manuscript, neither of us […]

I’ve got some notes for an RWA post somewhere, under the piles of paper threatening to bury me. So for now, you’ll get a sweating challange post.
Larissa has a post up here that talks about the Sydney novella we’re currently writing. (check out the comments where HelenKay threatens violence…) And yes, this novella’s […]

Tomorrow morning, I’m leaving for the RWA Conference in Dallas. Posts may or may not happen, depending on how insane things are. I’m looking forward to seeing Larissa and Alison, HelenKay and the WriteMinded gang, plus Cece and many, many others…
But I’ll have pictures and posts about everything when I get back on […]

(btw, if you haven’t signed up for the challenge yet, you have until July 13th to do so - remember, we built in a 5 day window because of the RWA Conference…more details are in this post, as well as the code so you can get the Sven sweating button for your blog sidebar!)
Thanks so […]
