Writing This Weekend

I’ve been working on my novel this weekend and I even managed to tweet a bit of micro-fiction. I’m feeling pretty good about it. The last few months have been slow going and I was afraid that I would get overwhelmed with the holidays and not get any writing done at all. But, working a little bit on my writing is better than nothing so it’s great that I got some work in. There are several WIPs on the burner and I’m not sure if I’ll be able to work on all of them.  I'll see how it goes.

Creating worlds is hard work especially when dealing with different timelines, sprinkled with Steampunk ensuring that the right anachronisms are evenly placed, while at the same time keeping it interesting. It’s weird because during all of this, tidbits of new scenery or images for my other WIPs pop up in my head and I have to stop and make a quick note so that I don’t lose them. I’m exhausted! I’m going to go brew some coffee for a much needed recharge.

  1. I am very tired, too. I can't wait for the semester to be completely over, so that I can use my winter break to add some pages to my WIP.

    Be productive!

    P.S. I'll pass your email forward.

  2. Isn’t it interesting that no matter how busy we are with other aspects of our lives, our WIPs are forefront in our minds. And we know that we have to get back to them so we make them fit into our busy schedules. Stay motivated and inspired so that you can finish it. Then, let me know when it’ll be published so I can buy it.
