Unconventional NaNoWriMo week 1
Overall, it's been a great week, but very tiring. In this post, I'll show you my diary of work during week 1. In total, I worked on my writing goals for 19.25 hours (87.5% of my goal of 22 hours--not bad!). I successfully published my entry in the Unreliable Narrator challenge and made progress on other goals related to my writing business. Keep reading for the details :).

Either Book Antiqua or Georgia usually, but I’m open. I will 'font-theme' around and not care how dirty it sounds. To thoughts like question marks that hang in the air wondering if they breached the detectable audible range: Cuz you swear you didn’t say nuthin'.

Back to the Boneyard
Redmoon’s Boneyard Prayer was inspired by several things, one in particular being the movie Ironweed. I love the story, the modern bunraku, the music, the dirt, the lighting, and the shadows.

The Art of Writing
Writing used to terrify me. As an English major, I thought every sentence needed to be profound and every metaphor poetic. I agonized over each word choice, reading and rereading until the words blurred on the page. While my papers always earned top marks, the process was torturous.

Writer's Block
I'm currently working on my NaNoWriMo novel and I am STUMPED at where to go next. So I decided to take a brain break and create a post instead.
