How serious should I take this?

November 9, 2015 Kate7 Comments

I have been worried about my word count. Life has been getting in the way and I'm about 3000 words behind with Nanowrimo. I find myself sinking into the ever increasing circle of doubt and sadness. I know that there are other things that are acting on me. I have had yet another cold and… Continue reading How serious should I take this?

Word counts and trying to reach them

November 3, 2015 Kate11 Comments

I'm doing Nanowrimo this year. It's my third go and this time, so far, I'm on track. I ought to mention that I have never been able to reach the end, never hit that word count. Last year I was 30,000 words adrift. So what am I writing this year? The Gone 2 - Evolution… Continue reading Word counts and trying to reach them

Where is the time going?

October 29, 2015 KateLeave a comment

I have to get my act together... I have so many books waiting to go out and others waiting to be written. I have found myself at an impasse with Nomura which could mean that I struggle through it, squeezing the words from my consciousness, or that I pop it away for a little while.… Continue reading Where is the time going?

Is this a second year of a nanowrimo fail?

November 13, 2014 Kate12 Comments

It may seem premature, I mean we are only on the 13th of November, but I have to admit that my word count is bad... Worse than bad. I am at 5000 words. Okay I have excuses, but all I feel is disappointment. It does seem like the fates have conspired against me. I had… Continue reading Is this a second year of a nanowrimo fail?

November 30, 2013November 30, 2013 Kate6 Comments

I am a Nanowrimo loser... But I am not worried as I have the beginning of the book fleshed out and the story is straight in my head. To all those that have managed - Congratulations! And to those that haven't - don't worry! You are further than you would have been if you hadn't… Continue reading Last Day of Nanowrimo…

Nanowrimo – The Interview…

November 16, 2013 Kate8 Comments

The daily prompt has asked for an interview of someone from a blogger to the mailman - they didn't mind who. So I was wondering and then I realised that there is one person I need to interview - my protagonist. You see although I know her I feel I need her to speak to… Continue reading Nanowrimo – The Interview…
