Memoirs of a Creative Writer: October 2010
http://memoirsofacreativewriter.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Memoirs of a Creative Writer. The blood, sweat, and tears of a first time novelist. Saturday, October 30, 2010. So an idea for a short novel has been floating around in my head. Anyway, I already have the end planed out which says something for the life of this story. In other words, it might actually come to pass. Maybe I'll use the idea for my creative writing class. RUN RUN RUN as fast and I CAN! OK, so I'm feeling either completely awesome or completely insane. But wait, there's more! During the mont...

Memoirs of a Creative Writer: December 2010
http://memoirsofacreativewriter.blogspot.com/2010_12_01_archive.html
Memoirs of a Creative Writer. The blood, sweat, and tears of a first time novelist. Friday, December 31, 2010. Best quote of the day (I made it up). Expect nothing and you'll never be disappointed. Expect something special of yourself however, and you can make it happen every time. I hate getting crazy phone calls in the morning. Do I even know you? Have a nice day ma'me." And I hung up! I wish I had come up with something better with stronger words but I was too angry at that point and I already knew it...

Memoirs of a Creative Writer: January 2011
http://memoirsofacreativewriter.blogspot.com/2011_01_01_archive.html
Memoirs of a Creative Writer. The blood, sweat, and tears of a first time novelist. Wednesday, January 19, 2011. I gotta say, I am SOOOO grateful for all the prep work suggested by the "First Novel" book I bought the other day because I nearly had a meltdown and almost gave up my current story entirely. Doubts kill creativity faster than a bullet to the brain. You can't write with it. You can't have it looming in the back of your mind or it weighs the story down. Best advice? Due to the nature of my stor...

Memoirs of a Creative Writer: I Now Know Why You Should Work on 5 Books at Once
http://memoirsofacreativewriter.blogspot.com/2012/03/i-now-know-why-you-should-work-on-5.html
Memoirs of a Creative Writer. The blood, sweat, and tears of a first time novelist. Friday, March 30, 2012. I Now Know Why You Should Work on 5 Books at Once. Because if your baby of a manuscript suddenly becomes un-writable you find yourself stranded in a no man's land of repetitive thought and daydreams that only change in the details. Maybe the scariest part of anything we do happens in the moment before. The uncertainty of success, the fear of the plunge, the desperation to know that you are doin...

http://memoirsofacreativewriter.blogspot.com/2011_12_01_archive.html
Memoirs of a Creative Writer. The blood, sweat, and tears of a first time novelist. Friday, December 30, 2011. K, so I decided that I seriously need to stop making excuses about not writing on my blog during school. I mean honestly, what other time of year do I write more? Or learn more about my craft? Do not all writing books suggest that writing at least ten minutes everyday will help any writer improve their craft? Is not a blog the epitome of puke on a page (a.k.a. practice writing)? 2 Make sure the ...

Memoirs of a Creative Writer: May 2011
http://memoirsofacreativewriter.blogspot.com/2011_05_01_archive.html
Memoirs of a Creative Writer. The blood, sweat, and tears of a first time novelist. Saturday, May 7, 2011. Back to the Basics. Lately, my creative buzz has been going like crazy and I came up with this poem in just under five minutes. I call it "Congress" but I think the end result is open to multiple interpretations. Empty mouths go up and down. Meanwhile, the hidden snake goes round. Good men's feet and binds them fast. Cowards faces turn to ash. Round and round it turns. Men watch as standards burn.

Memoirs of a Creative Writer. The blood, sweat, and tears of a first time novelist. Saturday, March 5, 2011. A Writers Weekend Joys and Weekday Woes. First the woes so we can get it over with already. My poor computer caught a virus.a BAD one. And just before I was going to back up my freshly finished first draft of Midnight Manor too. So I spent the week on pins and needles waiting for the Geek Squad to call me and tell me that my baby was o.k. At most, 20 seconds. That's justice I suppose. It t...3) (p...

Memoirs of a Creative Writer: Vibe Kill to Retreat to Sad Choices to Bill Cosby
http://memoirsofacreativewriter.blogspot.com/2012/04/vibe-kill-to-retreat.html
Memoirs of a Creative Writer. The blood, sweat, and tears of a first time novelist. Monday, April 30, 2012. Vibe Kill to Retreat to Sad Choices to Bill Cosby. Seriously, I'm so excited that I've written the ticket date down on my calendar (In BIG letters) and buying the ticket is going to be the first thing I do that particular school day. I've saved up for it. $15 dollars for studens, $25 for everyone else. So glad I'm a student. I wouldn't miss this for the world. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).
