The Last Original Plot For A Novel

Will Write For Chocolate


Will Write For Chocolate has been updated, and I've added a new comic called Satanic Frustration to Inkygirl.

I've started the outline for my next novel, using Scrivener. I'm also using Scrivener to organize my Year End Review article for Writer's Digest magazine. LOVE this program!

Very excited about my next novel. Some writers find the process of talking about their plots helpful; for me, however, the less I discuss it ahead of time, the easier the writing process. The joy (for me) is in mostly in the telling, so the more I talk about it before I start, the less motivation I have for writing it down.

Funny Student Exam Answers: found this in Coe Booth's LJ via Lisa Yee's blog. Definitely worth checking, especially if you've done any teaching. :-)
