It’s Friday again! This week’s #CoffeeHousePrompt is: a struggle. And this is the image prompt I pulled out of my Dixit deck: As usual, all credit for the image to the Dixit people! Here’s the flash fiction, totally improvised right as I’m posting this. The Struggle His prison has grown more cramped as the days went by. As the smooth, Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – The Struggle
It’s been a weird first week of Camp NaNoWriMo. I’ve had two good days, two awful days and one okay day (hopefully a late night writing spurt will make it two okay days so far). I’m still well on track for my goal of 15k (I raised it from 10k a couple of days in), but I’m having some trouble Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Spotty Progress
Hey, it’s Friday! And I didn’t forget about my flash fiction post! This week there wasn’t a prompt at the community on G+, so I did just a Dixit-inspired piece. If you didn’t read my Flash Fiction Friday post last week, Dixit is an absolutely awesome board game that you should definitely google and probably buy. This was the card Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – The Sword
Until Camp NaNoWriMo, that is. And personally, I’m just itching to get started! It’s been a really good week this week. The schedule I set up for myself in last week’s update is working really well! Quite contrary to what I feared, the studying part of it has progressed slowly but surely, and the part I’ve struggled the most with has Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – One Day Left!
I’ve been thinking for a while that I want to start doing more flash fiction and work more with writing prompts. I don’t do that a lot, but I find it to be a great way to get new ideas or develop ones that haven’t found their place yet. So, as of today, I will attempt to post a short Continue reading Flash Fiction Friday – The Hidden Door
The other day, my friend Grace tagged me in a blog hop (thank you, Grace!). On closer inspection, I realized that it’s actually a Liebster award blog hop. Since I’ve done the Liebster twice before, once here and once on my Sims 2 blog, I figure I’m gonna skip the nomination bit and just answer the questions: Is this the real Continue reading Little Liebster Hop!
This weekend, about 6 months and 10 days after the release of Going Home, its sequel Dress Rehearsal Rag hit the Kindle Store and Smashwords. Yay! Normally I’d do a separate post about news as big as this, but since it’s Monday, and since I’ve already told most people about it view Twitter, Facebook and my newsletter (which you, as Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Dress Rehearsal Rag is out! And onwards.
I did it, guys! I finished my edits! And I’m exhausted! It was a strange week. Total brain-blockage all week, and then edited like a mad woman all weekend. Now the MS is with the proofreaders, and it looks like I’ll hear back from both her and the cover artist on Wednesday. So today I’ve been relaxing, and tomorrow I play Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – The Waiting Game
I had planned to post this on Tuesday but somehow it’s now Friday and I’d totally forgot! Bad Emma! Anyway, I now have an official blurb for Dress Rehearsal Rag. Here it is: Orryn has a room of her own, a part-time job and, for the first time in her adult life, real friends. If not for her sister’s constant attempts Continue reading Dress Rehearsal Rag – Blurb!
That’s right guys, it’s crunch time! Edits are going well, if a bit more slowly than I’d like. This week I have: Did my daily writing, which mostly consisted of editing Dress Rehearsal Rag. It needs to be run through twice more or so, but it’s starting to get there! Just a few more kinks to iron out. Got my cover shot Continue reading Twice Fortnightly – Crunch Time!
