So, I've decided that after the Girlie series, I want to write something with a card master as the main character. To do this, I've ordered some books on tarot, and a set of tarot cards. (Actually two sets.) BUT, I also bought the Card Captor cards. I used to have one of these sets, … Continue reading Card Captor Sakura Decks
In September, I took Sarra Cannon's HB90 course for managing time and realistic expectations, and I feel like it was a huge success for me. So, yes, this post is focused on her HB90 system, but there is no affiliate for me, and her course JUST closed today. That said, it's an amazing course and … Continue reading Time for the Quarterly Reset!
I hit 50,000 words November 26th, and recorded it November 27th! Only 6,000 or more words left on the novel.
Yes, of course I'm participating. The book I'm working on is from the 'Girlie' series, which I plan to make a series of shorter novels, 4 or 5, with a complete story arc through them. As of writing this post today (which is actually Sunday, November 6th), I am at 19,156 words! The goal is … Continue reading It’s November Which Means… NaNoWriMo!
I completed HB90 and have my quarter all set up, and I'm continuing Publish and Thrive. I'll be writing Girlie in November, and I think what I'll be doing with it is making it into 4 or 5 'shorter' books... short for me is easily 50,000 words.... writing and editing them all, and then I'll … Continue reading HB90 Is Complete and My Plans
Since this came up in another post, I thought I'd make a list for you. Kaler Born - written when I was 14, this is my biggest dumpster fire of a book! 75,000 words. Shields of Magic - mostly written in notes passed back and forth with a friend, age 15. 30,000 words. Familiar - … Continue reading How Many Books Have I Drafted?
My desk got a little out of hand. I have a desk (more like a repurposed small kitchen table) I use for the computer, and a desk sitting by my Kanban board for projects that I want to do without the computer taking up space. It was a mess, stacked deep in items I tossed … Continue reading Cleaning Up My Work Space
It took FOREVER to type up all the post-it notes, but here is my completed Kanban Board from the HB90 class for quarter four of this year! You can see I've narrowed my focus for the quarter from the ridiculous list of things I WANTED to get down to the highest priority/biggest impact items. Outlining … Continue reading Kanban Board from HB90 for Quarter Four
I'm working on Sarra Cannon's HB90 class right now, and I just reached the goal setting section. So far it's been eye opening, and she's had us clearly delineate how much time we have for things in a realistic fashion. She limits you to THREE goals, clearly stated, with measurable results. She says that too … Continue reading Goals and Reality in the HB90 Class.
