I remain stuck on Woman in White. I can’t quite seem to see what comes next. Have I felt this way before? I think I did, both with Gamer and Demons & Battleskirts, I just can’t figure out how I resolved the issue. Although, with the other two, I think I had more of a … Read more
Today I was meant to figure out what the deal is with the male lead in my current work-in-progress (a xianxia-inspired fantasy with a Norse invasion) instead… I stumbled upon the inciting incident for a totally different novel.
*sigh* I can only blame the plot bunnies for taking shameless advantage of my magpie brain.
I had a thought today, and it’s a thought I’ve had before so bear with me, but today is the moment when it firmed in my mind and because an actual thing/movement/whatever. It’s now embedded in my brain. The thought… This particular stage of writing Woman in White is the discovery stage, not just of … Read more

I’ve been mentally cheating on my current WIP (Woman in White) with a new book idea. It’s a pretty fucking awesome idea and it entertains me during work hours. It doesn’t have a name yet, but it’s sexy and exciting and I really just love thinking about it. I don’t think about WiW, like… WiW … Read more
It is time for Bitch-Space. I just wrote some 650 words for WiW and… it wasn’t smooth as butter and I’m not sure if I like them (what’s new), just as I’m not incredibly happy about not hitting 1k words within the hour I set for myself. But still… I feel like I made progress … Read more

I’m still firmly in the “the story fucking sucks” phase of the writing process, which is not conducive to confidence when sending a story to a paying market… for other people to judge. But hey, I did it. As well, … Read more
I had a bit of a… breakthrough? Epiphany? Epiphany sounds better, “breakthrough” makes it sound like I actually did something when all that happened was a spark. Still, sparks are important, every canon shot that breaks a wall begins with a spark, so… there’s that. Anyways, I had an epiphany of the minor kind. I … Read more
I still don’t know what to write, and these gloves make my fingers feel weird, makes typing a little harder. I don’t know what the issue is with WiW and where I’m at. I’m all excited to write the story and find out where it goes (let’s be honest here, I know where it goes, … Read more
In today’s bitch-space I feel zonked. Got home from work 40 minutes ago, fed horses, put bins out, contemplated what to do with the cat that hates my guts but nonetheless looks like she’s on her ninth life, and then rushed inside to start a SU&W session. To which no one has turned up, bar … Read more
