Just another weekend, really! Of course, it was a weekend like no other, as it was the Monmouth Music Festival Carnival Day! I was there with my wonderful Faerie friend, Claire Weeks, who had given up her Sunday to help … Continue reading

My interview at the Ross Gazette came out this week, so I thought I’d put a screenshot of the virtual edition of the paper! Already I have had people get in touch with me, who are also readers or writers of Spiritual and Visionary Fiction. I’m hoping to meet more local people to create a regular spiritual group. Hopefully I will meet more people at the Monmouth Music Festival tomorrow, and at the Mind, Body, Spirit fair on the 23rd Sept in the Forest of Dean.
I’m not quite where I should be with the wordcount yet, but I’m certainly in a better position than I was! Just over 5000 words written today, and I’m nearly at the halfway mark, with 24,587 words.
The story has turned into a completely different one than I imagined, and has completely taken on a life of its own. I have no doubt that it’s going to need a LOT of work, to get it into shape for my December publishing deadline, but I know it will get there!
I think I need a break now, I think some dinner and then some more banana and strawberry cake with ice cream is in order!
Well, the breakthrough I have been desperate for, at least! I have been so very behind on my wordcount all month, dragging my heels because my initial story idea only lasted the first few chapters, then I was adrift in the sea of uncertainty.
I know I always write this way – with no plot or guide map, but I still get slightly unnerved when I have thousands of words left to write, and I don’t know what any of them will be.
But today, after pushing myself to write another 2500 words, to help my flagging wordcount, I had come to a standstill. So I figured I may as well make dinner and chill out for the evening. Until I suddenly realise I’m supposed to be somewhere in twenty minutes. In the hurry to get ready and go, just as I am about to leave, the flash of inspiration comes zooming into my head, and as I close the door, I recognise it for the genius that it is!
So I now know, where this story is going, and it’s perfect, even if I did not see it coming, at all. I hope I can do the idea justice, I guess I will leave my readers to judge that one.
All I need to do now is to fill in the rest of the story to that point that I imagined earlier.
Easy!

Okay so you know I said I would update you about my wordcount, but if things went quiet it would mean that I’m behind? Well, surprise surprise, I’m behind on my wordcount, which is why you haven’t had an update!
But fear not, I WILL have 50,000 words of my novel written by August 31st!
I’ve got a few scene ideas floating around at the moment, and this evening I will be settling down to explore them. At the moment I am busy revamping my website, which I’m pleased to say is looking pretty good so far! I will post an update when it is done!
To all the other wrimos out there who are struggling – keep going! You can do it!
Was interviewed by the lovely Joey Pinkney, it was posted this morning, so head over to his site to check it out!
Also, check out Aria’s first ever interview on Laurie’s blog, and on the 19th August, her second interview will be released on the World Literary Cafe! (I swear that Faerie will be more well-known than me!)
