BellaOnline Forums Career Fiction Writing What Did You Write Today?

For fiction, I am about to publish Book 1 of my new novella series - I just need to finalize the cover.

I'm also about ready to publish the sequel to my modern murder mystery series. I'm arranging for a live launch party event and just need to nail down a date for that, and then get everything ready for that date. So two fun projects.

What are you guys working on?

A poem.

I've finally figured it out (writer's block syndrome) which happens to the best of us.

Surroundings, focus, support and belief.

Rejections (of the past) well you had to go through who you knew, scratch this back, etc., a lot of stuff that really, interferes w/actual, gifted and limitless, ingenuity.

NOW?

You know we can pretty much express ourselves with the creativity and gifts, no matter how old or young we are, with limited barriers.

While you can and for as long as you can, do what it is you do best!

My son is over so I only wrote a chapter of a novel after he went to sleep last night. I'll aim to write another one tonight. What writing are you guys up to this weekend? Or, if you're reading, what are you reading?

Finally getting organized again - Julie's UTI threw a huge wrench in everything. Tomorrow is a new day!

What are you guys writing?

3:31am. Time to curl up in bed with my laptop and do a full read-through of Birch Blackguards. It's nearly ready to publish. Each read-through brings it one step closer. I wrote this back in August 2013. Do you review your books for months and months to get them "just right"?

Finished up my read-through of Birch Blackguards. Now to get some sleep. Will do one last pass on it tomorrow evening, then up it goes!

Everyone, congratulations on your projects. I'm working on my parables for kids series - can't get away from the spiritual writing, so it seems ... but the parables are set up as short fiction stories.

That sounds wonderful, Susan!

Ready to begin my final read-through on Birch Blackguards before I put it live. Maybe I should have a launch party this weekend? I've just been so busy that I haven't hard time to plan. What do you think - Sat? Sun?

I really wanted to finish this last readthrough of Birch Blackguards tonight and get it live before I went to bed. But I'm exhausted. Undoubtedly it's better to finish it in the morning, when I have fresh eyes, and then put it live then. So rest it is!
