Row80 Check In – Write The Book YOU Want to Read.

February 9, 2012

| Stacy

I don’t have much in the way of an update. I’ve been limping along since I returned from the funeral. Sometimes it’s hard for me to get back into the groove of things, but I’ll manage. I have been working on THE PROPHET here and there, ironing out some more minor plot issues I’ve found. … Read the rest

Today’s check in is another short and sweet one. Most of you know my brother passed on Thursday, and it was a relief to everyone watching him suffer. Because I’ll be traveling for the services, I won’t be blogging this week. I did manage to write almost 1800 words on The Prophet and work out … Read the rest

I wrote just over 2600 words, so I’m feeling pretty good. The problems my critique partner found with act one … Read the rest

My goals for this week were pretty straight forward: write tomorrow’s Thriller Thursday post and complete the first act of The Prophet. I’m happy to say that so far I’m on point–yesterday I wrote 2000 words, the most I’ve written in one sitting in quite a while. I have two scenes left in Act 1, … Read the rest

One week in, and I’m happy to report I’m feeling great. What’s more, I had a good second half of the week. I spent two days deep editing INTO THE DARK, utilizing some advice given to me from some great friends and critique partners (Catie Rhodes, Donna Galanti, Amy Lichtenhan, and J. Thomas Ross), as … Read the rest

Row80 Check In 1/4/12

January 5, 2012

Unfortunately I have zero progress to report on the Row80 front, but I’m excited to say that today is the first day I felt somewhat human. Apparently having a combination of erysipelas and folliculitis is pretty exhausting, but for the first time in eight days, I actually feel like doing something. So I’m celebrating:) I intend … Read the rest

Hello, everyone! As some of you know, I’ve been fighting a wicked skin infection on my face, chest, and back. It’s some mixture of strep/staph, and it’s been awful. Imagine a horrible raised rash with postules over 90% of my face that itch like crazy. I don’t know how I got it, and it took … Read the rest

December 15, 2011

| Stacy

So far this week, my writing process has been turtle slow, but it’s paying off. I went back and revisited some of Margie Lawson’s DEEP Character Analysis (courtesy of Jenny Hansen’s blog contest) and have been implementing in my writing. Some of you know The Prophet started as a Friday Flash piece, and I’ve been … Read the rest

Row80 Check In 12-11-11: Learning from Disappointment

December 12, 2011

| Stacy

Rejections hurt. I’m not going to lie. INTO THE DARK is still out with several e-publishers, and it will be a while before I hear from them, but I’ve gotten responses back from a few of the agents I’ve queried. Some were personal, some were form. Some had pages attached, some didn’t. All were polite … Read the rest
