Lost WayfarerI have a pile of my novel stuff and it is growing!

March 27, 2012

I organized my list of novels in a notebook and have all that I have found and piled up on the floor of my bedroom until I can find a more suitable home for them. The key is to have them all together, so that it will be easier for me to organize them and work on them individually (hopefully everyday) once I get the other misplaced ones together.

I guess I never realized how many or how much I have worked on these novels to have such a huge pile. And that isn’t all of them.

It is funny, because I found a misplaced couple of sheets of one of the novels, and I spend some time reading it. To me, it was very enjoyable and inspiring and MOTIVATING to write some more! 14 months ago


Lost WayfarerI am giving myself week before moving forward again.

March 25, 2012

I am still looking for and organizing all my novels together. Organization is the key. The next step is then figuring out which novel I will be working on. I hope to have all of them together, or at least most of them together. I am only giving myself one full week to get this down, then I am moving on to the next step of working on this goal: Writing! 14 months ago


Lost WayfarerFinding what is lost

March 24, 2012

I found 2 binders and 3 notes books so far, as well as my primitive list of all my novel ideas. I still have others so I am still on the hunt. I found one binder in one of my boxes that were going to go to my storage unit, so I have to go through the others to make sure any of the others don’t go there either.

I haven’t been very organized with keeping them all together. It doesn’t help that I moved during a couple NaNoWriMo, which caused me to pack some of the away or separate notebooks and papers from other things.

Anyway, it is getting done. 14 months ago


Lost WayfarerBreaking down my novel even more: Organization first!

March 23, 2012

I haven’t been working on this much as I have several novels that I have started and have failed to finish. I think the first goal is to get them all together (as some of them are in binders and other are just in notebooks) so that way I can focus on which one that I want to finish and work on daily, as I have 5 novels that have been seriously started (as they are all unfinished NaNoWriMo acheivements) as well as I have one major novel (The War at School – a very juvenile story line that I was try to write when I was in Jr High) which is mainly written on notebook paper and takes up most of an old briefcase. I have to seriously think about if the poorly written story is worth saving and anything is salvagable, no matter on how much paperwork it takes up.

So the current goal under my Work on my Novel goal is : Collect and get all my written novels together as I have some of them in my Library, and some in my bedroom and even others in other places. The goal to to organize and get them all together in on area of my home. Preferably my library as soon as I am able to organize it a bit more then it is at the moment. Organization bit is part of my Spring cleaning goal.

Lost WayfarerLot of inspiration to work with

March 21, 2012

I met with my writing friend and member of NanKnights at the Harding Memorial after work. We talked about Script Frenzy a bit, and then talked about our work on our various novels. We talked about ideas. I told her about a new dream that I had that would make a good novel. I told her that I was trying to get back to writing regularly to be primed for Script Frenzy and Camp NanoWriMo . I told her about my list on 43Things and showed her my printed out list that I am working on. I told her that I hadn’t add Camp NaNoWriMo June 2012 yet, because I didn’t want to get ahead of myself.

After our little meeting, I went hunting for my other novels and notes. I found two, and I am currently still looking for others.

I plan on buckling down and doing some writing outside tomorrow in my notebook.

Lost WayfarerIt wasn't much, but it is a start!

March 20, 2012

I wrote a little bit my notebook yesterday while I was at the park. I must say that I was working on my last novel that I worked on for NaNoWriMo 2011. The one that I am calling The Seven Songs of Mehr, as there is a lot of works of nature in it, so my trip to Quarry Park helped me getting in touch with sounds and sights, so I could write a bit. I didn’t write much, but it is a start. I wrote only one page, which I think is equivalent to 800 words.

I am working toward big steps to a bigger work count! 15 months ago


Lost WayfarerMy small little step.

March 19, 2012

I have moved my papers around that I don’t know where my notebooks are, which I would rather work with then sit in front of my computer in this beautiful weather. I started looking and I didn’t find it. So, I am just going to get a notebook and start writing, so I don’t stall on this project any longer by looking for it.

Anyway I am going to be participating in Camp NaNoWriMo June 2012, so I have to get motivated to start writing. I hope to work in working in some Character bios and idea for my “Camp” project since I will be writing about Zombies. The subject was chosen back in December, as I had some wild idea to work in a novel.

No excuses. There are no excuses for not writing! 15 months ago
