Ramblings of Aradescent

Ready to make Progress

I am excited to say the least. For the first time since I've started writing I have come a very long way with my novel. I've planned ideas and begun writing them and never quite anywhere near as far as what I have with this one. It's partially because I was writing the wrong things all alone. I was aiming for a much older audience when I realized that even though I read those books, to me something young adult is much more interesting. I have 63,000 words written so far..unfortuantely that started in December of 2008 with the idea occuring sometime in August of 2008. I attempted to write it once (have no idea how far I got) and then deleted it. In my defense I have a two and a half year old daughter, newly married, and work fifty two hours a week at a lumber company. All of my free time is towards my husband and daughter with me trying to squeeze in what I can of writing. Sundays are my given day to write. After church, a great lunch, and a nap I spend about two hours writing. Last Sunday I accomplished 3,000 words and another 3,000 on Monday night. Very proud of that week. I have recently joined NanoWrimo and am excited to begin another novel in November. I am looking forward of the challenge of writing 50,000 words in one month. I already have another idea going on..actually taking an idea of someone I know who is completely okay with me writing his book. Of course his name will be on it.
