That’s the current chain on my writing.\u00a0 I have now written at least 250 words for the last 12 days in a row.\u00a0 I love it.\u00a0 I’m finally getting things done.\u00a0 I’ve already finished the rough draft of a short story for Every Photo Tells<\/a>\u00a0and gotten the synopsis for the first of the Pendragon Casefiles (which is the new series I’m working on) done.\u00a0 I’ve also started the actual rough draft for Pendragon 1 (which really needs a title…so does the short story, for that matter).\u00a0 I’m embracing a new me – one that does, rather than says.\u00a0 One that writes, rather than talks about writing.<\/p>\n

Race day is coming up too – April 6.\u00a0 Just a bit over 6 weeks.\u00a0 Eek!\u00a0 But I’m heading to the gym, and I’m working on running.\u00a0 I will cross that finish line.\u00a0 I will.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Also, I’m branching out a bit.\u00a0 Those who know me know that I’ve been building a bit of an alter-ego for a while, because I’m looking at branching out in the stuff I’m writing.\u00a0 However, I’m changing her focus (sort of).\u00a0 I was a copy editor and proofreader at a major newspaper for several years (the Daily Campus, which is the 5th largest daily newspaper in Connecticut), and I’m offering proofreading services.\u00a0 If you are self-publishing, or just want to make sure your manuscript has no typos in it before you start submitting, stop by Cassandra’s blog<\/a>\u00a0to look at rates and other information.\u00a0 I’m not editing right now (I don’t have enough time) but I’m a good, fast proofreader.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

That’s life lately!\u00a0 I’m trying to update the blogs as I get a chance, and I have several ideas in the hopper of things that I want to do.\u00a0 Including a full website redo.\u00a0 At some point.\u00a0 And I’ll probably do a blog post soon about being a ghost hunter.\u00a0 Especially since we’re getting busy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
