I'll be selling and signing books this weekend!

 

I'm back!

My Writer Retreat 5.0 was a success!

I finished the first draft of a novel, working title: Hell to Pay.

Now back to work on Blood Sky Dreams.

Spring Writer Retreat

I will be heading out later today for my Spring Writer Retreat. For this retreat, I will be house-sitting a fellow author who is going on a two-week vacation. 

The plan is to write the entire 1st draft of a new novel in 14 days. These are the key components to success:

• Already have a verbose outline (16 pages)
• Detailed character sheets, including actor photos that would play each primary and secondary part.
• Food and drink for all 14 days.
• No Distractions.(email, FB, X, news, TV, nothin)
• Take my own comfy office chair.
• Write 8 to 10 hours each day.
• Morning and Afternoon walks.
• Average 6,000 to 10,000 words a day.
• Hammer through the entire 1st draft with no self-editing.
• Document my daily word count.
• Share that word count daily with people who will keep me accountable.
• No excuses, no distractions, no escape...

This will be my 5th solo Writer Retreat. Wish me luck!!

Not again!
