I have decided that I would like to keep track of my writing. See if I can't be a little more consistent. I was so thrilled last week when I wrote 764 words on my fairy tale story but am disappointed that I haven't written anything since. I did research for the second in my 'Worlds Without End' series for about an hour today but that doesn't get the story down on paper. I am on a reading bing and have probably read 10-12 books in the past two weeks; mostly young adult fiction and light romance (no porn!)[read about five Laura London, romance novels: hero terrible rake, heroine a nubile innocent. Leven Thumps Eyes of the Want by Obert Skye. Mira, Mirror by Mette Ivie Harrison. Dark Lord of Dernhold by Diane Wynn Jones(she wrote Howl's Moving Castle). My son-in-law gave me The Diving Bell and the Butterfly for Christmas: heartrending and thought provoking. Jenna Starborn, Sharon Shinn's Science fiction take on Jane Eyre. Currently reading the James Dashner series about Jimmy Fincher.]
I have heard that a good writer is a dedicated reader but at some point the reading has to end and the writing must start. I may be the only one who reads this but it's purpose is to keep me writing and writing and writing.
