Scribble Scrabble Blogspot: Book in a Week
http://scribblescrabble.blogspot.com/2009/05/book-in-week_18.html
Monday, May 18, 2009. Book in a Week. I finished my class, Book in a Week last week. The class was amazing. Okay, back to the class. I wrote a total of 26,000 words- a little more than half my goal. I felt I let myself down, but 26,000 words was more than I most probably would have done if I hadn't taken the class. Here's what I learned about myself as a writer:. Once I start writing, I don't like to stop, hence the sore arm. So, I needed to have a stern talk with my stubborn self. More than 26,000 words...

Thursday, September 17, 2009. Reaping Rewards . or not! I'm into heavy rewriting and editing on Nineteen Darby Way. I'm rewriting the entire book from present tense to past tense. And then there's the reward at the end of the week.I'm not sure what it is, but I can have it only if I've logged in 12 hours of actual work. This week I don't get a reward but I'm holding out for something special next week. I'll keep you posted! Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). 2009 Reading . Reading . Reading.

My Writing Life: August 2009
http://cindyluck.blogspot.com/2009_08_01_archive.html
Monday, August 31, 2009. September first is tomorrow, a day that for me, feels like the first day of a new year. I stretch my imagination and I swear I can smell change. 9/1 is when I again get serious about life, writing, and following through on goals. It's time to say good bye to the carefree and warm days of summer and begin to welcome structure. Below are a few of mine. I'll bet you'll recognize some. They make great writing prompts, produce wonderful stories and are fun to boot! How to be Lost/Aman...

My Writing Life: Is Summer Vacation Nipping at your Heels???
http://cindyluck.blogspot.com/2009/05/is-summer-vacation-nipping-at-your.html
Thursday, May 28, 2009. Is Summer Vacation Nipping at your Heels? Can you believe that summer is almost here? It seems to me that summer is one of the more difficult times for writers to write. We're challenged by children being home from school, trying to adhere to a schedule that is now constantly changing, and the commitment to write flies out the window. But it doesn't have to. Here are a few suggestions to help keep you on track:. Write before the kids get up/after they go to bed/take naps. My memoi...

http://scribblescrabble.blogspot.com/2009_09_01_archive.html
Tuesday, September 1, 2009. I've gotten comments from friends that they can't leave comments on my other blog, cindyluck.blogspot.com, so I'm hoping you can leave some here. The other blog is dedicated to my writing life and there are prompts there, so if you'd like to use them feel freee :-). This morning when I wrote my morning pages, I wrote about 'scars' - something I plucked from my inspiration box which brims full of possibility for spur-of-the-moment surprise ideas to write about.

Scribble Scrabble Blogspot: April 2009
http://scribblescrabble.blogspot.com/2009_04_01_archive.html
Friday, April 24, 2009. Write a Book in a Week, are you kidding? Two weeks ago I began an online writing class called Book in a Week. I heard the instructor, April Kihlstrom (www.aprilkihlstrom.com) speak four years ago at the East of Eden Writing Conference in Salinas. A book in a week? We'll see, first I have to get to writing. If you've thought of writing a book, I can't recommend April's class enough. She's written seventeen books, is so informative, answers all emails with suggestions and new id...

Scribble Scrabble Blogspot: February 2009
http://scribblescrabble.blogspot.com/2009_02_01_archive.html
Saturday, February 28, 2009. Last night I went to dinner with friends and then the five of us drove to the Bankhead Theater in Livermore to watch Eve Ensler's, Vagina Monologues, the proceeds of which benefit Tri-Valley Haven, a place for women of domestic violence. Here's their website if you'd like more info www.trivalleyhaven.org. I knew several of the performers, none of whom is a professional in the field of drama. They are artists, poets, writers, volunteers, working women, women just like us.

Scribble Scrabble Blogspot: August 2008
http://scribblescrabble.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Thursday, August 28, 2008. The other night I took Jake out to get some fresh air and as usual I glanced up to where the Bird family used to live. And they're back. I couldn't believe it. I ran right over and welcomed Ms Bird who cocked her head and looked curiously at me with one small pebbly brown eye. Our little mourning dove has returned! Anyway, does anyone know if mourning doves (who do btw, mate for life) have more than one? You call baby bird siblings? I'll keep you updated. Monday, August 25, 2008.
