Working hard, writing harder

Last week and at least the beginning of this week are insanely busy here at my day job. No time for a blog today (I was going to talk about keeping a story believable). I'll try to do that tomorrow. Also, I've increased my pace for writing Bewitched & Betrayed. I WILL WRITE two chapters a week. I've said it here, so it's official. BTW -- It'll be a tough schedule (danged near impossible, actually) so any encouragement you'd like to throw my way will be greatly appreciated. ; )

Back to the grindstone.

Lisa

Some of what's coming up:

  • Why does it take so long to publish a book?
  • Keeping a story believable
  • Books with plots/characters similar to Raine books?
  • Let every scene advance the plot
  • Never stop learning

"Damn the torpedoes, full speed ahead."

"Engage."

"Fall down six times, stand up seven."

"The Force is strong with you."

"You are the Kwisatz Haderach."

Raine is cool, no question about that. That's why you'll keep writing. Because we're waiting to uh....stalk I mean encourage you to carry on :)

You can do it! Raine will help you.
