Back to William and Suzy

by Margo on April 19, 2012

Remember that novel I was writing? Yeah.

I had chapter five almost ready to go, but then I changed directions and had to rewrite it. And then I got sidetracked (darn ADHD). And then I bought a new laptop and somehow that last chapter never quite made it over to the new computer. I’m fixing that now; the dino laptop is loading up as I type. All I’ll have to do is find the document and copy it over to the new computer.

After that, I’d like to get back to work on the novel. I’m currently working on a different WIP, but I should be able to find time to dedicate to this one, too. I’ll try to have chapter 5 up in the next week, assuming I can find it.

Also, I want to add that going back to my clunky laptop, that is much heavier and not nearly as sleek as the new one, is just plain weird.  Very, very weird. I’ve also forgotten how horribly slow this thing is. Now I remember why I replaced it.

And…. Found it! On the new computer, of course, after all of that work. I renamed it for NaNoWriMo, and forgot about that when I started searching for it. Good news, I have at least two chapters nearly ready for posting. And they both look like long chapters. Hurrah! I’m going to spend some time reading over everything I have up to this point, and then I’ll try to get the next chapter or two up relatively soon.

It’s November!!

November 1, 2010

Happy November first, writers! November first means NaNoWriMo. I was up writing at 1:00 this morning, adding some in to previously written scenes and starting on some new material. It turns out that my (very) extended break from writing about William and Suzy was just what the story needed. I have a mostly completed outline [...]

Seriously? Already?

April 20, 2010

I finished chapter 2, sent it off to my sister with a grin on my face, and then scanned over the few lines I already had for chapter three. I added a few paragraphs, read again, tweaked a couple things, and then reread. Bedtime. I did the same thing the next morning. Rewrote the whole [...]

Finding Inspiration

January 3, 2010

Getting back to blogging feels fantastic. I’m enjoying being able to reconnect with the rest of the writing world, and offer a little bit of advice here or there. The problem is– I have no idea what to write about. So, this post is going to be a mesh of mini-posts, about inspiration, things I [...]
