Or, I Made It To 40,000 Words Tonight!

I had to share the good news — I made it past 40,000 words in the National Novel Writing Month contest. I’m so excited! I feel like I can finish on time. 10K is nothing, right? Three or four decent scenes, and I’ll have my first draft finished.

This year, I’m writing a sequel to my paranormal romance Shopkeeper’s Prophecy (Beasts of Vegas #1), and it’s so fun! I’m blissfully swimming in an ocean of vampires, witches, and shapeshifters. In this new novel, the oracle is all grown up and falling for her own tall, dark, and supernatural stranger.

I think this calls for a celebratory mixed drink. A white Russian sounds dang good. Want to join me? Raise your glass.

Or, I Made it to the Halfway Point!

I’m so excited to be halfway through my NaNoWriMo journey this year. I’m a little behind the curve after being bogged down several times by everyday life. When reality hits (job, family responsibilities, daughter’s homework, etc.), it’s hard to find time to write uninterrupted for more than five or ten minutes. But, I’m finally at 25,000 words. It feels like a huge obstacle overcome.

Or, My Favorite Month Of The Year!

You’ve heard me before, but I can’t help repeating myself. 🙂 I love November!

Not only is the weather cooling off and Thanksgiving is on the horizon, but it’s National Novel Writing Month.

On day one, I’m totally energized with new ideas, new characters, and leftover Halloween candy. My story this year is The Fortuneteller’s Prophecy (Beasts of Vegas Series), and I’m in love with every word so far.

Day One Word Count: 1,779 (and counting).
