WIP - Day 1

I wrote my seven pages in two hours last night. The words flowed into my hands. I didn’t do any editing. I’m just writing for now. It was refreshing to find the story again. The best part was my 2 year old let me write. He kept asking am I done yet, but he understood mommy was busy. I’m getting him trained.

I’m looking forward to tonight to see where the story goes. I think for me that’s the exciting part about writing a book, finding out where it will take you. Sometimes you have an outline, but every now and then those characters have a mind of their own and that’s when the fun begins.

I will tell you I’m reading Ideal Wife by Jacquelin Thomas and it is off the chain. I so want to talk with someone who has read this book. If you’ve read this book send me an email or comment here. I want to know what you thought about it.

I’m also reading Permission Slip by Sherri Shepherd. She is too crazy. I like her voice, she has me cracking up as I’m cooking dinner. Yes I read while my food is cooking. Ok I’m a multi tasker I can’t help it. It’s in my blood.

Get your write on.

Get your write on, indeed.

I wanted to participate in the NaMiWriMo event this year, but I realized my time wouldn't allow me to. But, I see you are well on your way to that novel, correct?

Don,

Thanks for stopping by. We writers never have time. You have to make time. I gave up t.v. my biggest time stealer.

Find something that is stealing your time and write. Even if it's 15 minutes a day. That's more than you had before.
