Yes, yes, another project. Some of you…. might recognize that title. So I’ll explain myself briefly. -begin brief explanation- I’m doing a serious overhaul on my first completed novel, about six years later. Original story was about a secret agent, a cyborg and a dog being a weird team together. The general concept is still… Read More Odd Team Out thingies
So I occasionally do these cool character linkups, Beautiful People. And apparently, this month isn’t characters, it’s about the writing process. How fun is that? So I’m doing that today. Prepare for rambles and gifs. How do you decide which project to work on? Usually it’s a “first come, first serve” sort of thing.… Read More Beautiful People: My Writing
With all the Blank Mastermind writing, I was beginning to miss some of my other characters. Namely, Cobalt, from Odd Team Out. So when I saw a prompt come up for a “1920s con artist AU”, how could I resist? Presenting, that weird story where an amnesiac villain and a cyborg become three-card-monty hustlers in… Read More Con-Man Lesson
So, just one of those weird ideas I have when I’m washing dishes… Ever feel like different stories have a particular feel about them? Changing books you’re reading or writing almost feels like walking into a different room or house, just with the change in atmosphere. With that in mind, I did a little writing… Read More The Book-Room Challenge
So I’ve been having fun with Pixlr over the past few days making collages for my characters from Odd Team Out. (Since I’ve actually poked around and found pictures that work for them… *squeal*) And a few collages for friends’ stories. *peeks around* They don’t know. (*waves* Hi, Victoria and C.B.!) Thought I’d share those… Read More Story & Character Collages
So, I won’t be here tomorrow to answer comments and such. Impromptu camping trips happen. (I’m bringing my camera, so there’ll probably be some pics to share…) I’ll be gone through Sunday, and I’ll probably schedule something ridiculous to entertain everyone in the meantime. Before then, I’m doing two linkups because… I can. And I… Read More Beautiful Books & Snazzy Snippets
So, some writing advice. Because I thought of it and it’s been a while since I did any writing advice articles on here. Here ya go. 🙂 When I was 12, I had a brilliant idea. I was planning to write a book, Odd Team Out. And the main character was going to be… Read More The Personality Pickpockets: Putting Yourself Into Your Characters
Well, I did it. Odd Team Out 2 was finished within the month of November. Because I am now a firm believer that the month of December does not start until the sun rises. In the last day, I wrote exactly 7,878 words, passing the 50,000 mark by quite a few thousand. That makes this… Read More Odd Team Out 2: Mission Accomplished
Hey, everybody! Well, today is the day that some of us go rushing to the stores, while the other some of us stay cowering at home out of the path of the stampede. I’d be the second group. And I’m guessing if you are reading this today, you probably are too. Though somewhere in the… Read More Indie Christian Books
This is the reward I didn’t get around to posting because I only finished my word goal late at night. Anyway, the first of these is the Beautiful Books linkup, once again on Odd Team Out 2 (43 pages and 18,297 words in so far!) and the second is a tag I’ve already done. The… Read More Beautiful Books 2 & Cobalt Takes a Tag
