2010 was a tiring year - not a bad one, just exhausting. I'm working more hours and my son was especially demanding. And working hard with my writing. I was getting alot of my chapters up for review as well, because for me that's a slow process. I'm discovering it is challenging getting so many reviews, which I seem to be getting lately. Not that that's bad as such... well, perhaps it is - but I need to go through and do revisions as well (and there's alot!) but I also have to work out if the reviews are right for me and my story. Reviews from other writers have to be dissected carefully, to make sure the advice isn't coming from their own 'story' writing perspective. Sigh! But overall advice has been good and mostly helpful. It's a great encouragement.
But great things - I've nearly finished Part II of Guardians. But still more to go. Plus I need to do revisions.
A couple of Awesome events - Having two short stories published! Actually it seems quite extraordinary. So that is pleasing.
I'm quite a fluid writer. I look at a piece after a few weeks and I can rearrange and trim, easily cutting out things that I had at first deemed important. It's good in a way, but even so there are some things that are in deadlock and they will never be removed, especially in dialogue.
I'm planning on getting my map redrawn and then I shall upload. I think that will be helpful.
I'm also getting my Manga Blog ready!! Whoohoo! My new great LOVE! I'm so excited about manga. I'm already writing a fanfiction story.
and hopefully will be working on my Dyspraxia blog as well. I think that could actually be a useful blog.
