Friday’s Race to the Weekend: Book 4, Post #13
Welcome back to Austen Promises! Last time, I gave you Chapter 8. I changed part of it, but you'll have to wait until publication to see. 😉 LOL I basically just fixed some of the date stuff and Mary's conversation with Liz. Today, I give you Chapter 9. It has some editing ahead of it, … Continue reading Friday’s Race to the Weekend: Book 4, Post #13
Friday’s Race to the Weekend: Book 4, Post #12
Welcome back to Austen Promises! I wrote no new words on this story this week, because I was editing Darcy's Predicament. Hopefully, by the time this post goes live, I'll be back at it. 🙂 I have Chapter 8 for you today. Part of this will change, because I wrote last week's bowling date after … Continue reading Friday’s Race to the Weekend: Book 4, Post #12
Austen Authors August 19, 2019: Racing to a Finish, and a Giveaway
PLEASE NOTE: The giveaway mentioned in this post has closed. I was super excited a couple days ago to finish a book. The third book in my racecars series just kind of poured out of me. Since that’s my favorite way for stories to happen, I was elated, and when I finished, I was so … Continue reading Austen Authors August 19, 2019: Racing to a Finish, and a Giveaway
Friday’s Race to the Weekend: Book 4, Post #11
Welcome back to Austen Promises! I didn't get as much written this week last week as I'd like, because I discovered that I cannot edit and write both in one day. Both require a lot of mental fortitude and stamina, and when I get home from a writing session at the bakery, I'm too tired … Continue reading Friday’s Race to the Weekend: Book 4, Post #11
Friday’s Race to the Weekend: Book 4, Post #10
Welcome back to Austen Promises! I didn't get as much written this week as last week, partly because I had to stop and go back through my plot and rewrite it. I'm still a bit shaky as to what happens between now and when the major action starts but I do have a direction. LOL … Continue reading Friday’s Race to the Weekend: Book 4, Post #10
Friday’s Race to the Weekend: Book 4, Post #9
Welcome back to Austen Promises! I've begun working on this book full-time. I told my newsletter peeps that I only wrote 5,000 words on it, but when I did the math, it came up to over 8,300, so ... go, me! LOL I did a little rearranging and adding, so there might be stuff in … Continue reading Friday’s Race to the Weekend: Book 4, Post #9
Friday’s Race to the Weekend: Book 4, Post #8
Welcome back to Austen Promises! Here's another very short section. I hope next week to have a longer one. Here is the master list of posts. It's not updated, but I hope to do that in the coming few days. Did you know that for a monthly pledge of as little as $1 at Patreon, … Continue reading Friday’s Race to the Weekend: Book 4, Post #8
Friday’s Race to the Weekend: Book 4, Post #7
Welcome back to Austen Promises! I'm back with another very short section. I wrote enough today for three such posts, but I'm only scheduling two, because I hope to be devoting all my writing time to this story in a week or so. Today, Mary meets Declan. <3 Here is the master list of posts. … Continue reading Friday’s Race to the Weekend: Book 4, Post #7
Austen Authors July 23, 2018: Another year, another race, another reader
I recently went on a vacation with my sister. We’ve never done anything like this before, and I wish we had. It was great to spend that time with her and do things together. We went to Kentucky, visiting the Ark Encounter on Friday and Kentucky Speedway on Saturday. The last time I was at … Continue reading Austen Authors July 23, 2018: Another year, another race, another reader
