Lists of Goals and Finding the Right Schedule
In the #RWChat last night on Twitter (this morning for me), they talked about writing goals and the end of the year and what goals do writers have for the last 3 months of 2017, what obstacles are in the way, what changes can be made, and how are you feeling as a...
Readathon Sign-Up
I mentioned a bit ago that I would be participating in a 24-hour Readathon on October 21st and I wanted to give all of you the chance to sign-up for it, too. ALL the details are HERE as well as the sign-up form. As it states, you don't have to read for the whole...
I’ll Get The Words In… One Day
...Or maybe in four days. Or three days. Or... Who knows. Actually, I NEED to know. I don't, really. I just need to do it. Buckle down and do it. Write. All. The. Words. I keep hoping someone will join me on this insane journey of 10,000 words in a weekend. It's not...
I’m the road, but I’m planning to write…
It's that time of week again. Time for word count challenges and working your way and mine up to 10,000 new words by midnight Sunday (9/24/2017). Can you do it? Can I? I didn't last weekend. I think I maybe got 200 words, before the spouse came down ill with an...
I Need a Challenge… How About You?
As I get my ass back in writing mode and as NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) approaches, I thought now would be a good time to start #10KWeekendsforWriters up again. It didn't gain much traction the last few times I tried it and who knows if it will this time...
Hurricane Irma
If you are anywhere in Irma's path, you're in my thoughts. I hope you are safe, or safe as you can be if you stayed. My family stayed. My brother and his family are in the Tampa area. My mom and grandmother are in central Florida between Ocala and the Gulf of Mexico....
Bout of Books 20 Tally and What I’m Planning Next
So, my tally for Bout of Books 20 isn't as high as I'd hoped it would be. I made it through 3 1/2 of the Magic and Mayhem books by Robyn Peterman. I had wanted to make it through all 5, but life happens. I don't feel too terribly bad because I came into it so late,...
Music Monday – Right Here Waiting
My son started his senior year of high school today. It's a bittersweet day for me. He's my youngest. So, this will be the last time we have a year together like this. He plans to go to college here in Charlotte and won't be moving out for a while, but there is a...
I’m Participating in Bout of Books 20
Hello my dear Readers... I've been reading a lot. I will post a list of books that I've read soon-ish. But, in the course of reading a lot, and I've started following a lot of readers and other book obsessed people on Instagram and Twitter the last few months and it's...
Mark Your Calendars for the October 21st #readathon
Back in April, I joined in on a #readathon on Twitter organized by 24hourreadathon.com. I came into it late with no plan of what books I was going to read, snacks, what to do with the family so I wasn't disturbed, a good night's sleep before so I could stay awake for...
