Cheers

ImageWell my first night in Chicago could not have gone any better. I got to enjoy some good beer and make some new friends at Mother Hubbards.

After that was an amazing dinner downtown(see above) on the patio under the cover as rain came pouring down. The lighting put on quite a show. It was the type of scene I would love to capture in my writing.

Today’s adventure will include the Navy Pier.

Happy Friday Everyone!

I bet you can guess where my next adventure is going to take place.

Go on, Guess, you know you want to……

I will be spending a long weekend in Chicago.

I will keep updating while I am away but it is going to have a different feel to it because why not?

I look forward to sharing the fun with you.

Happy Thursday!

Of Happiness-

I was feeling a little discouraged that I wasn’t doing enough to get where I want to be.

Then over the weekend I crossed the 2,000 follower mark and felt revitalized-

Thank you for all your support!

NaNoWriMo Prep Work

/ Alysia / 9 Comments

NanoPrepIt is that time of year again and I have been seriously considering what I want to write for NaNoWriMo. There are two things that worry me about the upcoming month of November and all if the fun madness that comes with it. The first and perhaps least concerning thing is that my two graduate classes will be coming to an end on November 15th, so for half the month I will be writing frantically while trying to perfect my class writing.

That, however, is not my biggest concern. Last year I have a full outline and a game plan going into the month. I am not going to have as much time to dedicate myself to that process this year. What I do have is a character, I have woman etched in my mind down to the last detail of her personality.

My question to my readers is this- Can you write an entire 50,000 word novel with just a character in mind?

Happy Friday Everyone!
