Wicked Cool Flight

I’ve been working on a way to abbervrate wicked Cool Flight in a cool way. It hasn’t been as simple as I’d hoped. My drawings haven’t  been great so I decided to look for stickers or a stencle that I could use. I found stickers that worked and I’m happy with the look of the design so far. I may play with it later but right now its golden.

Today I cleaned my computer so I could find things I, I’m glad its done but now I need a hard drive to give it more space.


Updated Recipes

I’ve added the Mac & Cheese recipe that didn’t work. I’ll add more soon.


Uncommon Words

I’ve been making a list of interesting and unique words to use in my writing. Most of them are words that we’ve all heard before but don’t think about using. I’ve been using Evernotes to collect my words so I have them on every device that I write on.  So far I only have three words, I started maybe a week or so ago, and I’m looking for more. I have mumbo-jumbo, fiddlesticks, bass-ackwards (which is something I’ve used before but forgot about). If any of you can think of more interesting words let me know, I’d love to see what words you come up with.

Today I worked on book two of Legacy, I still haven’t thought of a name for it yet. It’s really bugging me that I can’t think of a name, granted I’m still working on chapter one so it’s not like I’ve gotten far but I know where I want to take this one. The next two books in this series are going to go through the house to put it at ease. I’m not sure if I should just do a few rooms on each floor or do the whole floor in each book that comes next. The house is a mansion and there’s a lot of rooms but it also has five floors including the basement and attic space.  I know I need to figure this out before I get to far into the book, and since I don’t do outlines I might be in trouble if I get much further than chapter four or five. Thankfully still on chapter one.

On a different note I’ve read the four chapters HaperCollins has out for A Perfect Blood by Kim Harrison. I’m excited about this book, there may only be two or three more books, three at the most. This book comes out Feb. 21 and I can’t wait. All I want to do is read more, and I’ve been listening to book one but when Kim had up that more chapters were posted I had to read them. I’m hoping they post chapter five and six before the release just so I can have more to read before the release date.  It may have been better if I hadn’t read them at all if nothing else comes out. It’s like a drug, and since I have two brothers who are addicts, one recovering and one not, I’m guessing by the way have acted. Anyway so far it seems like its going to be one of the best books yet.

Okay I really need to go edit now, I’ll see you guys tomorrow.


Sick as a Dog

Sorry I didn’t post yesterday, this weekend I’ve been sick. I’m not going to get into the details but even though I’ve been under the weather I have been able to get a little work done. I’m in chapter 5 for edits on Legacy. I had to got back into chapter 4 like I said and change some things. I think I have the layout of the house pretty much covered. I wish I had a model of it or a good sketch (my sucks) but I’m a writer not an artist. Besides Legacy I was working on reviews for PBD and interview questions. So since Friday I’ve been fairly busy, and I know I need to put up the recipes, with getting sick that was the last thing I thought about, so I’ll get out a note book and write them down so I’ll remember to put them up this week. I’m not just doing this for you guys I think I’ll want it for One of the Boy’s or Calla’s Kitchen, whichever I decide to call it,  so I can add recipes Calla tries out. The ones that aren’t so good and the ones that are will be in the book, so you guys can see her passions.

You’ll find that I’ve been adding more things to the blog/website under Fiction I added a few more pages, this way all of my styles are labeled and I can have a page dedicated to the work. Shortly I’ll move all the information about Legacy over to the novel page, and so on. I’ll try and work on synopsis for everything else over the next few weeks.

For now my little sick butt is leaving you so I can eat and maybe write, otherwise I’m going back to bed. See you tomorrow.


Words and Music

Lately the music I have on my Ipod isn’t helping the writing process, I keep wanting to change the song. Today I’m going to work on editing and changing out the music. Maybe by the end of the day I’ll have a music list for Legacy, One of the Boys, Blood and Little Boy Blue. I’ll let you know.

Reblogged from Evoking the Deep:

A crackle of thunder in my chest
then all is calm
Dark clouds in the sky confess
no sparkle in my night

-

Memories strike like bolts of light
as dry eyes gaze into nowhere
Alone to behold this storm tonight
and I welcome the rain

-

I once believed a rainbow grew
between two hearts
But in the light I finally knew…

Don't you love the way this makes you feel.
