A to Z Challenge: Keeping Things Consistent »This one's also pretty easy, but very freaking tedious to do. Still, it wouldn't be right if I made all my topics too difficult, so here goes. When you get around to editing, it's pretty i...

A to Z Challenge: Keep Moving »Sometimes, things just go wrong. No matter how well we plan, we can't foresee everything. So things happen. Sometimes, you won't be able to perform as well as you wanted to. Otherwise, things ...

A to Z Challenge: Jumps »When you draft, do you also sort of ignore some tricky or unknown scenes, saying you'll do them later? Well, revisions are when you want to fill in the gaps that make the story jump forward faster...

Me too. I tend to go through the scenes I can without looking back. Then I start filling in during rewrites. But since I'm seemingly the only one that sees rewrites as part of the process, I suggested in the blog that people fix the skipped scenes during revisions. :-)
A to Z Challenge: Introduction »I can think of three reasons why introductions need to be looked at. First one would be that the character is important, but doesn't make enough of a first impression. The reader's not going t...

Introduction
After a long time stuck in limbo, focusing on only one aspect of my life, I have decided to stretch myself some more.
I am tired of feeling as if I am drifting along aimlessly, so I decided to take charge.
If you're interested in seeing how that is going, feel free to check out the blog Taking Charge of My Life. If you're interested in seeing how my writing is getting along, My First Book is the place to go.
Bragging rights
Finally got that degree, wrote two novels, writing a third and a libretto...
