Decided

Posted on 2016/06/03 by DasherJune 3, 2016

I’ve been thinking about doing Camp Nanowrimo in July, and now I’ve decided to do it. Time to dust off Scrivener and make an outline. But at least I know what it’s about. Science fiction in heels. LOL It will be … Continue reading →

Bahaha!

Posted on 2012/11/19 by DasherNovember 19, 2012

A Richmond Wrimo shared this link: The Worst Writing From Nanowrimo. And that led to The Best of NaNoWriMo. Did I get insulted that people would act like that about NaNoWriMo? Hell no. I howled with laughter. “Need help explaining the … Continue reading →

Questions I Don’t Ask

Posted on 2012/11/07 by DasherNovember 7, 2012

When my brain is smelling of burned rubber from writing too hard and fast, I go cruise the NaNoWriMo forums. I am continually surprised by the questions other people are asking that it doesn’t occur to me to ask. What … Continue reading →

Un-sticking Writing

Posted on 2012/10/30 by DasherOctober 30, 2012

I seldom get stuck for long with my writing, but it’s frustrating when I do. I ran across a post in the Plot Doctoring thread on Nanowrimo forums with a great idea. Build a playlist for the story, and one … Continue reading →

What Do We Write?

Posted on 2012/10/22 by DasherOctober 22, 2012

The Office of Letters and Light blog had an interesting post recently: Who Are You And What Do You Write? Tell a new acquaintance that you’re a writer, and the immediate follow-up is typically “Oh, what do you write?”… The truth … Continue reading →

Making Joy of Writing: Music

Posted on 2012/10/21 by DasherOctober 21, 2012

I enjoy having music on in the background while I write. It’s inspiring. It’s a friend in  the wee hours as I run off with my muses.  Sometimes there’s a specific album that feels right. Most of the time, though, … Continue reading →

Square In The Amygdala

Posted on 2012/08/21 by DasherAugust 21, 2012

Many writers use flashbacks as a tool in their writing. I do it so seldom in my writing that it is a tiny little tool dancing on the head of a torx in the bottom of my tool box under … Continue reading →

Wow. That Was Hard.

Posted on 2012/08/15 by DasherAugust 15, 2012

Someone had to die today. One of my characters did not make it through the story. To heaven, perhaps, but not through the story. I cried. A spit and tissue paper person died, and I bawled like a baby. I … Continue reading →

Screnzy was fun

Posted on 2012/04/13 by DasherApril 13, 2012

Script Frenzy was fun. I learned some things. I always enjoy that. I learned Greek. I mean, how to format a script. Same thing to me. I also learned how to read Greek…scripts. I have never enjoyed reading scripts of any … Continue reading →
