Still Rewriting

I know that it has been awhile since I blogged.  I have been rewriting.  I have the story in my head.  I see it as a movie.  I see it as a published book.  I see myself holding the print copy of the book.

I have tightened the plot.  Now I am going through it, adding detail, description  It is a Series.  I have 4-5 Books in this Series. 

I was just going to write one book, then the next.  Then I started thinking, I want all the books to connect.  Same characters, each has their own story, but all the characters will be in every book.  Same location.

So this is what I have been doing, while I am rewriting, which is taking longer than I thought it would.

1.  Created Book Covers for each book. 

I used the Kindle Book Converter for the book covers.  I feel better if I already have the book cover.

2.  Started plotting out each book, and whose story is for what book.

3. Posted the plots in my office.

4.  Making lists of how the town changes with each book.

5.  Time line.  How much time passes between each book.  Timeline is important

6.  Character Arcs throughout all the books.  All the characters will be different at the end of book 4.

7.  Word Count for each book.  I am shooting for 50,000 words, but that all can change as I write each book.

8.  I have a legal pad throughout the house, so if I have a thought or idea, I jot it down or I will forget.

9. I am not giving up.

10.  This is the series that I am meant to write

BELIEVE IN YOURSELF & NEVER GIVE UP

Write No Matter What

I woke up and felt like a truck hit me.  I still turned my computer on and started writing.  That is the only way the story is going to get written.  Do I feel like writing?  Nope.  Do if feel like Blogging?  Nope.  I write cause that is what I do.  So I poured me a soda and let the caffine take its effect.  I have to get ready for work in a bit, I blooged, I wrote a bit, so I am still going in the write direction. I write no matter what.  whether I feel like  it or not. Have a great day. http://sharonleejohnson.com/

Writing When Sick

I didn't feel good the last two days.  I slept a lot, but I was still thinking about my writing.  I did sit on the couch with my laptop and did some writing, though that I know that I need to do rewrite, but I did write.  Today I feel better and hopefully I will get more pages into the computer.  I started the rewrite of a novel that has been rejected 20 times and I will get it back on the market. So that I it.  I am going to start writing and get this done. What are you working on??? This is a new year.....New Beginning.
