Oooooh! This is one of my favorite topics. The topic of Notebooks! I say this is one of my favorite topics, but it’s also a topic of contention in my household. I see a new journal/notebook and say “Ooh! I love the looks of that! I need to get that!” Then, my husband says “You[...]
Before I get into today’s challenge post, I want to mention that I’m having a lot of problems with my WordPress for iOS app. Has anyone else had issues? It’s connected to my site (self-hosted) and it allows me to create posts and it’ll save to the server, but it won’t allow me to publish.[...]
Today’s challenge is to discuss Character Goals. This is a really interesting topic. Do I approach it in terms of what my current WIP’s character’s goals are? Or do I do it as more of an umbrella topic? Decisions, decisions… I think I’m going to approach it as more of an umbrella topic. Stay with[...]
Today’s challenge is an odd one. It is listed as Flora and Fauna. I’m not entirely sure what Marie is looking for here… my favorite fauna and flora? What I think of putting fauna and flora into my manuscripts? Hmm… this one is definitely an odd one. I guess I’ll take it from the position[...]
Today’s challenge is to list my favorite line. I wonder if this is the favorite line from one of my works or from someone else’s works… so, to cover my bases, I’m going to do both. So far, this is my favorite line from my current work in progress: Tallulah edged around the hulking mound[...]
Today’s challenge is to ask “What motivates you?” There are many things that motivate me. Family. Success. Challenge. But really, it depends on what it is I’m doing. When it comes to writing, competition is something that drives me. That might sound strange; since when is writing a competitive sport? I do the majority of[...]
Today’s challenge brings up the topic of Imagined Worlds. This is a tough one, and yet really easy. How do I mean? Well, there’s just so much that can be said about imaginary worlds… where does one start? I guess I’ll talk about the world of my upcoming YA Spec Fic novel, currently titled The[...]
So, Day 7 would have me talking about Villains. The first (and in many ways only) thing that comes to mind is related to politics. I’ve vowed to keep my blog (and most of my social media) as politics-free as I can, so this is a tough one for me. I could talk about villains[...]
Day 6 is labeled as Love Interest. The directions for the challenge were specifically to leave each day up to the interpretation of the one doing the challenge. Since I adore my husband, I’m going to interpret today as talking about my love interest: him. Dan and I met under less-than-normal circumstances. Well, that’s not[...]
So, yesterday was a pretty crazy day. It was my first day back to work since the holidays, my great-niece is in town visiting, and then a migraine hit in the late afternoon. Yikes! Thanks to all that, I didn’t get my challenge post done, so I’m doing it today, along with today’s challenge. Day[...]
