Wednesday Writing

So Wednesday is my official writing update day. I have so many story projects going on and I need a push to get some done. So I will be trying to post each Wednesday about how my writing adventures are going (and I may need a swift kick in the pants by you guys sometimes).



Current Active Project:


Princess Bs - 32,131 words
A story about a woman, recently divorced and returned to her home town to figure out what is next. She encounters an old friend and spends a weekend with him and his daughters. Feelings that are long since buried are rising up again, but are her recent loss and his current life going to stand in the way of their happily ever after?

Other Works in Progress:

The New Old Home - 17,193 words
Everyone dreams of winning the lottery, but what would you do with that money? That is the question presented to Natalie, when she is at the lowest point in her life, she is presented with an opportunity to make any normal person's dreams come true, but all those winnings can't give her what she wants most.

Tamlyn Marie's Grace - 12,072 words
Think Cinderella only with a matchmaker ;)

The Last Mountains - 15,352
A equine shapeshifting family is being hunted to near extinction and the young new leader must go against all her lessons and approach the elite council for aide. Will they help her? How will she keep her family's traditions and values alive, let alone her herd?


Night Rider - 17,229
Alice is a recent high school graduate who is a very accomplished competitive rider in Hunter/Jumper, Dressage, and Western/Rodeo. Her parents had arranged for her to attend a private college on the east coast geared specifically to equine professions. However, Alice wants to focus on her studies in English Literature. When she arrives at the college she hides her riding abilities, but can she keep her talent and love of horses hidden?


Other Ideas Plotting:
Bloodsoar's Story
A pegasus struggles through life, ejected from the herd, near capture by humans.


The Assassin's Assassin
A student learns what the school is really teaching and sets out to destroy those who support the program.

I really should be crowned the queen of procrastination!! I know exactly what I want to write on the Princess Bs story and where I want it to go but I keep doing other things! 
 
I think I am going to attempt to set a goal to finish the last 18,000ish words by then end of the year, that gives me 10 days.  Now I just got to make sure my finger heals (I managed to slice my pointer finger open really good cutting bagel- gosh I am a clutz) so my fingers can fly instead of having to hit delete and backspace constantly!

  1. Aw man, that stinks about your finger. It's so frustrating when you hurt yourself and it keeps you from doing everyday stuff. I'll be rooting for you! Even if you can just get 10,000 in, that would be awesome. :D

  2. You should have seen me trying to butter the bagel after that, it probably would have made funniest home videos, there was butter every where LOL!
