It Is Finished - A Confession
Well well. The 2017 NaNoWriMo is a conquered beast. I have the screen grab of my verified totals, the cheesy email, my winners certificate, and I got to watch the super cheesy YouTube video. My nightmare is over!!!! LOL A couple of things. A couple of you comment on my productivity and I most... Sign in to see full entry.

NaNo, Thou Shall Be Mine!
I'm right on the edge of finishing my NaNo. I guess if I hadn't diverted my energy to working on a newspaper article, I would have officially "won." As it is, I am at 49,300 words. I can add more first thing in the morning before breakfast and then call it a "complete later project." If I finish it... Sign in to see full entry.
Crossed Up
Nothing like posting something meant for one blog area and posting it in another. I posted my post meant for here in my Ramblings area, but that's alright, the main idea was to tell you that I was 'taking a break' thee for a day or three while I finished up something else.

Writing and Stitching
I stayed up late last night to work on my NaNo and by the time I went to bed, I was at 45,000 words. I think I can coast from here. I was on a hot roll and things were flowing well. We'll see where it goes. In the meantime, I'm going to work some more on my "How to Write So Good You Make Stevie King... Sign in to see full entry.

The Game of Twitter - Part Two
In my relentless pursuit of figuring out Twitter and chase book sales, I found something that I am going to try and I will report back on how it works. I had begun to follow as many writers out there as I could and was always seeing this hashtag #RRBC. It got so I was seeing it so often, it made me... Sign in to see full entry.
The Game of Twitter
This little post is destined for my 'how to write' e-book. I should post it in my 'On Writing' blog, but I am just starting my advice on how to promote your book. (Short answer? Study PT Barnum!) I'm discovering that Twitter is a game that takes a bit to figure out. When you first start, you have to... Sign in to see full entry.

Please Read This One
I rarely worry about people reading my stuff here, but this one is important to me. As some of you know, I've been posting my first actually published book, "Things My Father Taught Me - Lessons In Life." My main reason was to redo the book, fix a few 'broken' things and add new material for its... Sign in to see full entry.

You Never Know When Inspiration Will Come
I had shut everything down about 7PM and was watching something when an idea came to me and I began to write some more. Three hours later, another 1700 words in my NaNo! While I'm at it, I sent out another tweet that explains my Twitter push campaign to bring more people to Blog-It. Sign in to see full entry.
