This blog is my journey to become a successful writer of novels and short stories -- my education on how to write, the writing process, developing persuasive skills, finding one’s creative center, editing, and getting published. The guidance, advice, books, websites, resources, contests, and prompts that work for me may help you with your writing goals to write as a hobby or to become a professional author.

A little each day
The novel is going well. Each day I sit down and open a log file. Sue Grafton wrote an article suggesting that. It works to get the writing mind set as to what I'm going to write on that day. She wrote it was good protection against writer's block. Log sounded so dull that I labeled mine Graftonite. After that I open a page on the chapter I'm working on. I never work on the same chapter for more than one day before going on to the next one. My plan is when I get to the last chapter to go back to chapter one and keep rotating through the chapters in order. Will it work? I have no idea, but so far it seems to work great.
