The Stealthy Blogger: Which Bloggers Are Leading a Double Life?
I know for a fact that there a some bloggers out there who don’t want anyone to know that they are, well, out there. How many of us don’t tell anyone that we are bloggers? Is it because some people view blogging with scorn? Is it because you are writing about things that you would rather your...

Latte, Late, Later
It is a strange feeling after a solid month of writing frantically every moment that I could squeeze in, to not have my novel open on my computer, waiting for additional words. I didn’t log onto my computer first thing this morning and open that document, I did eventually check my e-mail and was...

Let’s Crack Open A Bottle of Champagne!
Well it’s not exactly breaking news, and I have to admit that I have been holding my little accomplishment close to my heart and just basking in it. I did tell my Darling Man (seconds after it was confirmed) and then waited for him to come and kiss me. Now that is a reward all in itself. I made it...

Sprinting to the Finish… Ooops… Damn Undone Shoelace!
Here I am folks.. I have 1700 (ish) words left until I get to enter the hallowed halls of NaNoWriMo finishers! So what am I doing? Banging my head on my keyboard in frustration! I should be writing, but instead I am on the phone begging and pleading with my ISP to restore my service so I can upload...

The Novelist Returns
The weekend is always a good time to recharge. If you can. I didn’t really have the time to recharge, but I did have time to write an absurd amount of words and get myself to the point where I have slightly less then 4,000 words to write before Wednesday. Which is perfect since I am creeping up on...

Off To The Library and The Big Push
This is it, my last real chance to get a big chunk of writing done. I am heading out to the library in 45 min (more or less) and after that I will only be able to sneak in some little bits of writing as the day goes. I’m hoping to get a good chunk of writing in so I can slide into Wednesday knowing...

Is It Giving Up, Or Giving In?
I don’t think I’m going to make the word count for NaNo. I’m just so tired from doing the hospital shuffle, and last night I wrote a bit but mostly I just wanted to be held by the man I love. All is not lost, but the will to enter the fight is waning. I am still writing and still submitting my word...

Personal Crisis and The Demise of the Novel
Well there goes that. With two people that I love landing in the hospital this week and a variety of other personal things that I needed to do all work has stopped on my NaNo novel. I can’t tell you how frustrating it is to be this close to the end and have it all come undone like this. Missing one...

I Wonder If I Am Going To Make It?
Well, there are only 7 ½ days left in the NaNo competition. I did manage to get a good deal of writing done yesterday, which is good, because I have a date with The Man of My Dreams tonight. So writing takes a back seat to real life again. This weekend may be Thanksgiving to you Yankees… but it’s a...

Stumbling Along
I did write, but not as much as I wanted to. This is the way it goes. The girls didn’t give me anytime during the day to work on my NaNo novel, and even though I did make some progress last night, I got distracted by the prospect of spending some time with my darling man. So I’m a little behind, but...
