New website

Yay!! I've got all the prelim pages up for my new website. I'm really excited about all the changes I'm making. My goal is to make it easy to navigate and look professional. So far I think it looks pretty nice. Which even tho I worked my tail off , I didnt get much more than just the basic pages up. But this is a good start. I can add my stuff to it as I go along.

I didnt get a lot of other writing done today. I worked most of the day, then came home this evening and started on the new website. I did read 2 craft of writing articles this morning and read posts in my classes. Im hoping tomorrow I can finish playing catch up on my assignments.

Maybe in the morning, tomorrow afternoon I go for another fitting at the bridal shop.

I also need/want to get the other two character interviews finished for Ungodly Obsessions. I have 'to do' lists all over the place. LOL

That's it for tonight. I'm off to bed.

Another Monday

Well it's Monday again. The weeks just seem to be zipping by. Only 18 days left till my wedding day. Things are really hectic. There's so many last minute details that have to be tended to, I want everything to be nice.

I'm still keeping up with my daily writing. Again I'll repeat, Never will I take 3 classes at the same time! I'm working on getting caught up on my assignments. I still have two more to finish this week as well as assignments from the writer's workshop for Ungodly Obsessions.

This is the last week for F2K and one more week in the Feedback Course. After that I'm going to concentrate on the wedding, my novel, and a couple other projects I have on the backburner.

I still haven't heard anything from Silk's Vault as of yet. The winners of the contest are to be announced on June 1st. I've got my fingers crossed.

Well that's it for tonight. I'm off to rest.

Back in the Swing of Things

I'm trying to get back in the habit of writing in my blog every night before closing out for the day. So just bare with me till I get the hang of it.

Today's been a fairly productive day for me. I worked on Ungodly Obsessions tonight for several hours. I'm in the process of really in-depth interviews with at least my major characters. I'm hoping this will give me a better feel for the character and what makes them tick.

I'm still running behind on my assignments. I have an assignment each to post for the three writing classes I'm taking as well as working on UO for the writer's workshop. I'm learning so much, now if I can just get everything to sink in and stay with me. That's gonna be the kicker. LOL

Well I'm off to bed. I have an early day tomorrow. I go for my first fitting at the bridal shop for alterations. Only 22 days left till the wedding! God I have soooo much to get done. LOL

That't it for tonight.

Busy Days

Wow I can't believe it's been so long since I last posted. Things have been hectic. The wedding is only 23 days away! We're trying to get everything together. So far I'm still working on my writing, but I'm not sure how good I'll do the closer we get to the day.

I'm currently working on the prelim stuff for my novel, Ungodly Obsessions. I've been working most of this week knee deep in research. Whew! It's been a lot of work, but I've found some really good articles and pictures.

I'm hoping to get my setting picture collages together hopefully tomorrow night, then start on the plotting part.

I'm also still taking F2K, How to Write Erotica, and Constructive Feedback through WVU-Writer's Village University. Only two more weeks with F2k and the Feedback course, I think. I've learned a lesson though. Never again will I take 3 classes at the same time. LOL

Well that's it for tonight.

A productive day

Today's been a very productive day for me. I got a lot of my prelim stuff finished for Ungodly Obsessions. I finished all three character sketches for my lead, lover, and villain. I got all my general setting sketches finished and two of my character setting sketches. I also updated my progress sheet for last week's goals and created my goals for the month of May and my weekly goals for the week of May 2 through the 8th. I wrote close to 3000 new words today. Yay me ! :0)

I have a few more worksheets as well as my setting collages to finish, but hopefully I should finish those by Tuesday at the latest. So my WIP is moving right along. I really think all this prelim stuff will help me be better focused when I actually start writing and fleshing out the story. I'm excited to see how it'll go. I have the story down pretty good in my head, it's just a matter of gettin it on paper and reaching close to 80,000 words. LOL Man that sounds like a lot. But I am determined.

That's it for tonight. I'm off to check email then hit the hay.

Busy Busy

Well today was another busy day. I didnt get as much finished as I'd planned, but I do feel I got quite a bit accomplished. I finally got all my character photos together and created character collages. I posted those in the group today. I'm working on the assignments for the week. Hopefully I'll get most of it finished tomorrow.

I also have to write up my monthly goals tomorrow for the WVU Study Group. I'm trying to move full steam ahead on Ungodly Obsession. Hopefully I'll start gettin it together soon, I hate being behind.

I have a full day planned for tomorrow between writing and working on the wedding invitations. I think the toughest part is getting everything organized, but I'll get there.

Well thats it for tonight. I'm off to bed.
