A Writer's Life

This is my goal for 2013.  I am writing a new Series  Me VS Zombies  It is going to be 12 Episodes.  I plan on writing an episode a month.  I will publish them as I go.  I have the first episode done.  Though I am still editing it and add ing scenes so far it is about 12,000 words.  I am a head of schedule.  I will write an episode a month.  That does not mean that it will be ready to publish.  I will have the rough draft done.  I am shooting .. 20,000 words per Episode.  This way, I will have a deadline to meet,  I won't be stressed over  a 100,000 word novel, and I will have something to publish every other month.  The holidays will be over in 4 weeks and then I will be able to put all my energy into my wriitng. Want to publish 5-10 E-Books in the year 2013???? This is how to do it.  Write short stories and get them on line.  My Zombie Zoo series I have 5 of them on line. Get business c...

I have been sititng in front of the computer for the past 3 hours.  I have been editing my short story first of the series  Me VS Zombies.  Then I worked on my guest blog for Emerald Barnes.  Then I checked my e-mail.  So I am getting alot done today. I have made deadlines for myself.  I am going to stay on track if I can .  I do not like to edit at all.  I am going to have someone edit my short story, but I still have to edit it.   I want it complete enough so when I get the story back it will only be grammar problems to fix.  If all goes well then I will have the first episode of Me VS Zombies up in January.  I am already working on the Second Episode of Me VS Zombies and if all goes well then That will be up in February or March.   I am very excited about what my cover designer comes up with.  I will share that with you when I get it, might not be till January, cause of the holidays.  I would sugges...

I am working on Me VS Zombies.  I then thought I needed to work on the next episode of Me VS Zombies.  Good thing I did.  I came up with some ideas that I need to include in the first episode so the second episode will make sense. So I have the rough draft of the first episode of Me VS Zombies and am working on the second episode of Me VS Zombies.  I want to get the two published back to back.  Not much time in between the two episodes, so why not start on the second one??? As long as I write I am working toward my goal.  My goal is to get 10 E-books published in the year 2013.  Not sure I will do it, but that is my goal. By January I will have 2 episodes done and will work with an editor for the final edit.  You need to love your story.  Love what you do.  I love my stories and the words just flow. So I might not  be writing in order or maybe I am just writing, but I need to get the words on paper and see where the story ...

I have great news.  I am now a regular guest blogger at http://emeraldbarnes.blogspot.com I will let you know my post date.  I am so excited.  I sent her a post for December and she loved it.  This validates that I am a writer/blogger.  I always wanted to be a guest blogger.  Merry Christmas to me. Now the fear creeps in and the self doubts.  I now have to come up with a montly post.  I need to start thinking. Add to my list for 2013 Guest blogger every month All I can say is that you need to put yourself out there.  Do Not be afraid of rejection.  If I didn't put myself out there, I would not be published and I would not be a guest blogger.  write that story and get it published.  Never know where that will lead you. 2013 is a new year.  Take a step out of your comfort zone and get published. I am a guest blogger how cool is that???? http://iamwalkingwithgod.blogspot.com http://sharonleejohnson.com ...
