Aug 30 2009: Ideas

Aug 30, 2009 by

Today was ho-hum. My dad and Cathy came up, and so Marissa, Johnny, and I met up with them at the mall for lunch and shopping. I had to skip out early though because I wasn’t feeling so well. I didn’t get a lot of sleep the night before because I had really vivid nightmares and couldn’t get back to sleep. So I pretty much lied around the house.

But for today’s picture…I recently bought a bulletin board for home. I haven’t put it up yet, but once I do, I’m going to use it to sketch out my novel a little bit better. I’m really looking forward to that. Until then, all these little pins represent ideas.

So many ideas.

Aug 03 2009: Plotting

Aug 3, 2009 by

I’ve been writing a short story for my EJami board to practice writing in third person and to give me something else to try as I feel a little bored with my book at the moment. Plus I can let lots of friends read it and give me feedback. I’m also trying out some plotting techniques, such as using notecards.

Im trying this out for the first time.

Jul 31 2009: A Neglected Prize

Jul 31, 2009 by

Back in JUNE, I won a drawing for my friend Nancy’s book contest. Nancy is this wonderful person that I met on my EJami fan board. She’s also a terrific writer and tells quite the saucy tale. Anyway, she sent out my prize (from CANADA), and it was delivered to my leasing office back in JUNE. I missed the the delivery slip and it just sat there and sat there and sat there. Today I got a call that the package had been sitting in the mail room for over a month. Eek! So I rushed right over and got it.

Thank you so much Nancy for the package. I love it! And the surprises were great!

Check out Nancy’s site at www.ejamie.net

Besides the cool writers journal, theres also some CDs, bookmarks, and a postcard. My favorite part might be the handwritten letter. My Internet friends are the best!

May 22 2009 + Project 365 Album: Mar 29-Apr 4

May 22, 2009 by

I totally neglected to take a photo today, which is silly because I actually worked on my Project 365 album. I only made one page, and I have so many more to go. As I work on other projects in my life, especially writing my book, I’ve put scrapbooking aside for awhile. Hopefully I can do more in the future, but maybe not until my book is done.

May 11 2009: Day 1

May 11, 2009 by

Today was the first day of my week off! I spent it at a computer (sad), but I was working on my book. I also squeezed in some yoga in the morning and cooked some. It was a fantastic day and very productive.
