Update Thursday #86


Welcome to Update Thursday, my own personal meme of sorts where I post an update of the goings on at my blog, with reading and writing. Feel free to borrow the idea from me for your own bookish musings.

Writing...

~ If Only We ~ 40,496 ~
~ Before We Knew ~ 11, 449 ~
~ Whatever This Is ~ outlining ~
~ Under Enchanted Skies ~ 1,550/plotting ~
~ Beyond The Horizon ~ plotting ~
~ So I Thought ~ plotting ~
~ Hold Your Breath ~ plotting ~

The latest = Nothing. That's right. Nothing. Well, nothing on If Only We. I did write a couple notes on things I need to adjust/change with regard to certain details in the beginning, but that was it. I haven't had much of a chance to sit down and get back to writing and revising that this week. I've been too busy getting eBay and Etsy stuff up for sale. It's the time to sell so I must get it going! I have, however, been working on a NEW story idea that came to me recently. I wrote several notes in my phone (I think there were 20 of them) with ideas for the general plot PLUS a few specific scenes. Then I typed them into my computer so I wouldn't forget them. It's going to be awesome! I can't wait to work on this new one when If Only We is complete. I'm still working on a title. I hope to have one soon and put it on the above update.

Until next time!

  1. Hooray for new story idea! Aren't cell phones the greatest for taking notes? I always have a pad and pen with me but I usually just use my phone lol

    1. Lol, they are! I used to carry a little notepad with me but it ended up getting pretty tattered and hardly ever used. I can't wait to share the story synopsis with everyone. ;)

  2. Don't you both love and hate new story ideas? It's so exciting to think that you've come up with something new that you want to start reading right away but then you remember all the other things that you've started and haven't finished yet! Sometimes I think our subconscious minds are sabotaging us!

    1. YES, definitely. Our brains sabotage us all the time. Great ideas with very little time to write them all in! I'm just glad that half the ones I come up with will never go anywhere, otherwise I'd really be in trouble. Lol. :P
