Yo...

Merry Christmas!

Early!

I know this is a very early update for me but I was sitting here thinking about some of this so I decided just write this down. Some of this is not even writing related.

I started working at old folk’s home about five months ago and have managed to get to know one resident named Bob. Bob has many medical issues but recently something happened that kind of gotten to me. After talking to him everyday he managed to forget who I am. This hurt on many levels for me, one of which struck a fear I did not even know I had. Not only am I afraid of being useless one day but now, I have to confront the fear of being forgotten. I am not sure where else to go with this so there it is. With this revelation into another issue that I have, I end up wondering what to do and how to deal with it.

Writing wise I have been working on chapter nine, added a few hundred words and thinking about my future edits for this project. I think I am going to have to go back and add a huge amount of detail and description to my world and characters because I have already started adding it into this chapter.

A whole hour late

First time in awhile I am able to say that I have worked on the book. I have done some more work in chapter nine, which I have now realized that I need to add much more description into my work. I really enjoy Dean Koontz as an author and he puts a lot of description in his work, almost to a fault. I love this about his work and I am going to try to add it into my own writing.

So outlining is going well, writing is going well, and groundwork on the next novel is going well. I have also decided these last few days that with each book, as incentive to finish, I will have a belt buckle made with the title in it. Some day I would love to have more then 20 in total.

Sick day

So no new work has really been done this week. I was hoping to get some done today but I ended up feeling really sick all day, up until now. I will be working on typing some more out after I post this so I may update this post later. I really hope to get some work done but I am not hoping for a whole lot.

Anyway, I am now off to work on the novel! Catch you all later!

*Edit: 10k+ words*

Friday update

Another update! Almost on the right day too!

Nothing much to report other then I have been working on outlining the rest of the book, which has not gotten me very far. I might get four or five chapters out of the outline but I am going to need a lot more. I also decided how I was going to direct the rest of the book and I think I am going to be very pleased.

*Edit* Check out the free audiobook "Brave Men Run" on itunes

Late!

After having a blog up on time, I ended up not updating for a while and it is late on top of that. I went and typed out a lot of chapter six and then the program shut down and I lost it all. Therefore, I am working on finishing that as well as writing out chapter nine. After nine is down I am going to be taking some time in outlining the rest of the book so I know where I am going. I know that sounds crazy but I am a little lost in what to do next which is not a good sign. I am also told that if I don’t work on an outline I will have all of my fluids drained from my body. Really, what are friends for?

Nation Novel Writing Month is in November and congratulations to the people who have won this year. Next year I will be joining with the point of finishing the 50,000-word deadline in the month of November. I have a couple of guys who will be working on it will me. One novel is a post-apocalyptic war novel, another is a superhero story (mine), a zombie survival story and one I am not quite sure of yet but it is exciting either way to have such a diverse group helping each other.
