Beginning Again

My new computer has finally arrived!  My super sweet editing partner (personified by my darling husband) is copying all my files over and making sure it's in complete working order.  I should be able to start writing again tomorrow.  Then work begins on the beginning of the Chronicles again...

Unintentional Hiatus

This post is much later than I intended it to be, but I'm hoping that you'll forgive me after you read what happened.

Not long before Christmas, my steadfast little pink Acer netbook started having some problems.  It was taking too long to load programs and I wasn't entirely comfortable with its ability to save my work if I was writing.  Since I normally don't write during December, I wasn't thinking too much about it and figured after a little reformatting that the problems would cease.

However, about three weeks ago, my computer stopped taking a charge.  Thankfully I wasn't working on a novel when I discovered this and I still had half of my battery life left to shut it down and stop using it.  But that leaves me woefully sans computer to write.  I'm typing this blog entry on my husband's computer while he's at school.  If I could use one of his three desktops, I gladly would but they are not available to me.  Did I mention that my husband is in college for web development?  His computers are set up to do homework and run his business.  Writing is taking a back seat to that right now.

The good news is that this hiatus is soon coming to an end.  A new computer is on the horizon.  Once everything is set up and my novels are retrieved from Google Drive (I LOVE Google!), then I'll be back on schedule.  Legacy is due to come out in May!

Thank you for your patience while I'm technolgically stagnant and I'll have something new for you very soon!

It's Gone!

Resurrection is gone!  It's been sent to the publisher.  Now we just wait to make sure the formatting is right.  Once I know that everything is good to go, I'll let you see the cover.  It's awesome!  I'm so very excited!

Now on to National Novel Writing Month prep...

Revisions, Revisions, and more Revisions

After having to take some personal time to take care of my husband post surgery, I'm finally getting my revisions on Resurrection done.  It helped that while I was taking some time off, my cold readers finished Resurrection and had some very creative and constructive criticisms for me.

There are a few scenes that need to be added to or completely rewritten.  I saw it coming before I passed the book on to the cold readers, but to hear them reaffirm that for me was a big help.  Some of the scenes that I was thinking of revising were great according to them, so I'm going to leave them alone for now.  I'm excited for this novel to get out for everyone else to read it and the cover art is fantastic!

After I finish the revisions for Resurrection, I'm going to start the background notes for Scandal as well as prepare for this year's Nanowrimo novel.  I'm very excited about this year's book and I think I just might end up liking it so much that I'll revise it and put it out there for the public to read.  There will be more on that novel as we get closer to November.

Now it's time to get back to the revisions.  Hopefully I'll have a revised novel ready in the next week.
