Writerly Ways
Feb. 21st, 2010 05:46 pmTo be honest, I've got nothing for you here. I've spent the weekend working on a syllabus and knowing WHY I'm doing this has depressed me. I was going to murmur something writing female characters but right now that's just pissing me off so... (to see what I mean, browse reviews for female fantasy characters and see three camps, one pissed off that the woman are EQUAL and not superior to men, one that's thrilled to see strong females (bless them) and ones angry we're exposing our youth to women who don't want to get married and have kids and want a job (seriously, is this STILL that shocking after all these years???)
But to keep you from looking at this and leaving empty handed, go look at the last three posts by
moschus. All very helpful on the whole writing thing especially the currently all important author's platform.
as for my own writing, this was a good week. I DID finish the threesome. I did sell a bunch of my first short story with Dreamspinner and I'm THIS close to finishing big bang.
I wrote 4400 words this week and brought my goal up over the 10% mark for the year
21971 / 175000 words. 13% done!
