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.

RARR! Still no new writing done :( it's getting frustrating not being able to sit down and write.  Unfortunately, the office has gotten insanely busy and that is usually the time I have to write, so it all might have to wait for a while.  One a plus note, we are planning a skiing trip with several of our friends next month, but I don't ski (don't do any winter sports really).  So I will have some time by myself with just the laptop and a roaring fire to get some work done!

  1. I haven't been able to get any writing done because of how busy work is as well. It's great that you get to write there though. Hopefully the ski trip will invigorate you and get that inspiration going!

    1. It is great to be able to write at work, I have to sit at the computer all day anyway so might as well take advantage of some free time.

  2. Oooo! Sitting in front of a roaring fire with your laptop, surely you'll get some writing done.

    1. I am hoping being in a new location in the woods will be inspirational as well!

  3. I haven't been accomplishing much so far this year myself. I decided to get some stuff together to sell online, totally eating up my time! I would love to have a vacation where I could just sit around all day and write. I hope that works out well for you! :)

    1. I hear you Jessica, I have been sorting through my pony collection getting ready to list a bunch for sale too. It takes up a lot of time to photo, list flaws and price them all! I hope you get to take a creative vacation sometime this year too!

    2. Oh yeah. I have a huge tote full of ponies to sell (and boxes upon boxes of craft supplies and stuff I made). Speaking of which, I pulled up the Arena and saw your price check list... I can help you with that if you'd like me to. I am a teensy bit out of the pony loop as of late, but I still have a good idea of pricing. Let me know (just PM me). ^_^

    3. That would be awesome! I will have to pm you on the new arena, doesn't seem my post has been transfered yet.

  4. I didn't even know there was a new Arena! I noticed the issues last couple times I had logged on. I'll go check it out and PM you back as soon as I can... crazy day at work today!
