14,000 Words Reached

The thing about Twelfth Meridian is, it’s not that I’m too lazy to make the day’s goal – that’s still 2000 words! It’s that I’ve been busy doing another project with Mr H. That one’s super secret, though 😉 I thought I would lose myself in the draft again, but I found a workaround. IContinue reading “14,000 Words Reached”

I Keep Getting Ideas

It’s a real pain that I’m getting so many ideas at once, and sometimes it’s hard to keep up with all of them. Things have escalated, and now I’m seeing a problemo with Evermore Quatrain only having five Centuries. I now want to complete the collection, with five to seven more centuries. I dunno, 12Continue reading “I Keep Getting Ideas”

I Made A New Blog

This one’s an odd one! I was so sick of not being heard for my other passion, psychic reading, that I decided I wanted to change that scene today. This is my new blog Homrpantr, where I discuss Numerology, Palmistry, contact with the gods, and psychic readings I conduct – the first started off quiteContinue reading “I Made A New Blog”

The Dangers of Monopoly

I’m not talking about the game, but guaranteed that has ended friendships. But we’ve seen it all by now. Something gets popular, then companies want to milk it for all it’s worth, then the series becomes unrecognisable. Lost, The Simpsons, Happy Days, to name a few. One problem is knowing when to stop. A storyContinue reading “The Dangers of Monopoly”

I’ve Revived My Twitters

I’ve been putting off Twitter for months, but a switch in my head decided yesterday that I missed Twitter with a passion. Now, I have two accounts: @invader_stim is for writing and general stuff like The Sims, or music. I will talk about Evermore Quatrain as simply the book itself. @homrpantr for psychic/Jedi discussions, andContinue reading “I’ve Revived My Twitters”

I Celebrate My Characters’ Birthdays

When I was in high school, I would have been laughed at for this practice. But on social media, I found that other writers do this too. And thinking back to shows like My Hero Academia, I realise how many popular creators do this, too. I mention this as, today, the 3rd of March, isContinue reading “I Celebrate My Characters’ Birthdays”

10,000 Words Reached

It’s taken months and a whole rewrite to get to this point. But this time, I’ve actually expanded on the narrative so that the first three chapters make up 10,000 words so far. The 2,000 word routine is quite useful, but today till tonight before dinner was ready, I found myself struggling in the thirdContinue reading “10,000 Words Reached”

Pinch & Punch

First day of the month! Sorry for the long hiatus, as I’ve been practising my writing routine. I am still writing 2000 words a day, and I’m finally able to keep up with it without losing my breath. I’m rewriting 12M in LibreOffice, and while I was at it, I branched out into other stories,Continue reading “Pinch & Punch”

Challenging Myself

It’s Invasion Day and I completely forgot about it. I hope everyone has a good, safe day. Stay cool. Anyway, remember how I said I thought 2000 words would be too hard? Well, my husband challenged me to do it the other day. As a joke, of course, but those little jokes always turn outContinue reading “Challenging Myself”

Re: King’s Writing Routine

Yesterday, I considered researching Stephen King’s routine because I wrote 1000 words. I watched someone do this to weigh up the results. Turns out he writes 2000 words a day, and keeps to a strict time, and only drinks tea or water. Either I’m not seasoned enough, or that’s… a lot of writing. Today IContinue reading “Re: King’s Writing Routine”
