I had a “four day” weekend last weekend. It was just what I needed. I did errands on Friday: Blood work at the lab, and grocery shopping, on Saturday and Sunday I split the cleaning, and finally, on Monday cooked dinner and prepped a meal for tonight. I also reviewed my previous writing and edited … Continue reading A weekend in the life…

The need to be consistent in one’s writing time
I am writing using a phone app. I brought my tablet, but I decided to use the phone. I brought the tablet so that I may work on the novel.

It's weird. I do the same old routine; Monday through Friday, I go to work (I got to pay them bills). Don't a lot of us? On weekends, I generally stay home. I either clean the condo or I write, or read (reading is the converse of writing which one requires to hone ones craft). … Continue reading Working for the man (the same old routine)

How do you keep track of characters, places, story events and general outline while working on a novel? I don't use anything fancy. I use SimpleNote. The app let's me track what I have written and it allows me quick access to points I have written. It is also available online which allows me to … Continue reading Keeping track
