Well, January is over and I do want to report on my progress.
First for some really GOOD news!! I had a short story accepted at Reflection’s Edge and it will be published in the February issue. Actually, I think, any day now!
Now for the mixed news. For the new novel, I am still following the snowflake method, and I am now making spreadsheets with all the projected scenes. Yes, by the way, I did learn how to use Excel. Anyway, this won’t take much longer, and once I have completed this, I will be ready to start the draft.
Now for the bad news. The two short stories are not finished. Partly, this is becuase I was without my laptop for 16 days. It crashed, and while waiting for the manufacturer to send me the recovery disks, I had to borrow my daughter’s computer. So I had no time for blogging and very little time for writing. For this reason, I am granting myself an extension.
I will post another update soon. In the meantime, feel free to shake your head and roll your eyes.
