It's A New Year

Okay, technically speaking, not quite yet it isn't. In my time zone there's still about four and a half hours to go. Anyways, so it's almost a new year, but it is the end of an old one.
If the last year has taught me anything, it's to not have new year resolutions. And guess what? It has been working out just fine for me. No disappointing goals to look back on and regret, it's just a new year with no resolutions, pretty sweet if you ask me.

It's been almost a week since my last post, and I'm sorry for that considering I should try to upload daily. However, yay for me, I wrote 3,000 more words, so that's good. Granted, if I were sticking to the 2,000 words a day, I would have done 18,000 words, but it's been a busy week.

But again, small steps. Small steps into a new year. At any rate, hopes are I can finish this next book and get it out as soon as possible for you guys. Anyways, best of luck to me and to you (whoever you are) and a happy last day of this year, may it be epic, and may you get a good head start for a happy new year.

Have No Fear

Don't worry guys, I didn't give up. Sorry I haven't posted for a few days. It's the holidays and a crazy one at that. But since my last post I have written about another 3,000ish plus words, so at least that's good and I can't wait to get to my next chapter which is a bit of fun. In any case, hope to keep you updated in the next day or two!
Oh, and I hope you had a Merry Christmas! Or Hanuka. Whichever's your thing!!! :)

Another Small Step

Okay, so I did it. I wrote another 1,000 ish words. I'm pretty proud. It worked out fairly well so I'm glad. And any readers should be glad too, because that's a 1000 words closer to the ending. Until next, have a good night everybody.

Almost Panic Attack

Oh yeah, I was totally freaking out last night and today. I thought I lost my outline.I looked everywhere for this notebook, and five times at this desk downstairs, and I never found it!!! I was freaking out inside because I felt all good that I had my outline because that makes me motivated to write when I see what I had planned out exactly. So, yeah, almost panic attack.
Thankfully I found it. On that stupid desk where I looked five times. Go figure.
So best of luck to other people out there. Don't go over your head if something important goes missing. Just go look for it six times. :)

So Far So Good

It's been a day. And I kind of thought I wouldn't do it, but I did it. I wrote my 2,000 words for the day. I don't know if I'll always be able to do that, but I can defiantly manage at least a 1,000, but for now I feel accomplished. So yay me!!!

It's Done

Without further a due, it is done. I did it, it's out, my second book is out everybody!!! Ironically, I've had the thing done with over six months ago but I guess there's always a fear for any writer the book will never be good enough. Or that it didn't quite turn out the way I wanted it too.  If anyone wonders now, yes, there is a third and I've started it. I've barely written any of it, but I know the whole outline, it's sorted out, so at least that's a start.
To be honest, I'm just hoping this blogging thing keeps me steady. I've got a problem with rushing through things (like one time i wrote 9,000 words in one day) and then I won't get back to it again for like a week. So now maybe trying to blog every day of what I've done for my book will help keep me steady like water and not erratic like an avalanche.
But the point is I keep No Promises. I know myself a bit better now, I've already made this promise in the past and it obviously didn't take. So I'm being honest with any readers and to myself, I guarantee no promises but that I'll try.
There will be unperfect unsuccessful days where I might only write 50 words or no words at all, but the story will be alive, ticking away in my head, waiting to be written and read. I guess that's why despite my periods of absences (so sorry, the past year has been filled with many bumps not just for me but also my family), I just can't give writing up. Because even if I'm not writing out that standard 2,000 or so words a day onto paper or on microsoft word, the story line's still in my head begging to be released.
I just can't give writing up. I don't think I can ever stop giving it a shot. It's in my blood (Literally, I'm related to some very famous authors and even though I've never met them, this mere fact gives me motivation).
And some day, mark these words, I'm going to be out and about someday, and I'll see some random stranger reading my book.
And thus the journey begins.... Again. Or rather, I'm coming back from my break.
I'm going to try and be better this time. Get this book out sooner, stick with a designated writing plan so I stay on task and schedule.
Hoping myself best of luck and wishes anyways, I'm signing off for the night, because tomorrow (or technically today since it's three in the morning) is a new day. Because that third book (and many more)  is waiting for me.
And just maybe you're waiting for it too.

To Be Honest

To be honest I have a lot to be honest for. For starters, I haven't left a post in about six weeks or so. Holy crap that is a long time now that I'm writing it out. The strange thing is it feels like it's only been two weeks, but I suppose that's why people say time flies. And to be honest, the only little thing left really before I send out my next book is to write my description for it. Ironic huh, writing the book is easy, writing the little description for it is hard. But it'll be out soon, I promise. And a shout out to my sister Eden for being so helpful in making the book cover. She's amazing!
