Discovery writing

Posted on December 25, 2016 by L. Jacob

Merry Christmas! Yes, even though I’m an eclectic witch, I still harken back to my Roman Catholic roots and say Merry Christmas. Pisces is coming along slowly. Very slowly. I don’t seem to be in the mood for writing about … Continue reading →

Rewrites in progress

Posted on December 18, 2016 by L. Jacob

I received Grimaulkin back from my beta reader, who gave me some good ideas that I’m going to try in the story. As usual, my ending was too short, in his opinion, that there should be something more. In addition … Continue reading →

Continuing

Posted on December 11, 2016 by L. Jacob

Still working on Water. Grimaulkin is still with the beta reader, though I have some feedback that I need to work on (add more straight characters because the story takes place in 2000, and gay people are still firmly in … Continue reading →

The Passion is Gone

Posted on December 4, 2016 by L. Jacob

Saturday was my last appearance for the year, and there’s one thing I learned. I need a better pitch. My pitch leaves too much to the imagination. I need to tell the plot of my novel in one sentence. But … Continue reading →

My son asked me recently what I listen to when I write. It depends on the mood. And where I am. If I’m alone, and downstairs in my writing cellar with my Mac, I don’t usually listen to anything. However, if … Continue reading →

NaNo – #amediting

Posted on November 20, 2016 by L. Jacob

I gave up on NaNo. I’ve instead turned my attention to Grimaulkin, with the intent of getting it ready to go by December 15. Hopefully then it’ll get read by February and be ready to launch in November. In the … Continue reading →

Survived the Con

Posted on November 14, 2016 by L. Jacob

Yes, I survived. But not as I had hoped. I hoped to sell a lot of items for the Press. Building Baby Brother and Best Intentions. Unfortunately, nothing sold except 4 copies of my book, Homecoming. I have a feeling … Continue reading →

Comicon, WNRI

Posted on November 6, 2016 by L. Jacob

Heidy Ho, neighbor! (As my character, Grimaulkin says.) I finished Grimaulkin. Very proud of myself. 62,000 words. I need to edit it next month and hopefully get it ready to go for next year around this time. I’m trying NaNoWriMo … Continue reading →

Posted on October 30, 2016 by L. Jacob

Comicon is happening in two weeks. I have a booklet that I’m waiting for the publisher to send to me, which will have a short story (Custer’s First Stand) and the first chapter of War Mage. I hope that comes … Continue reading →

Grimaulkin 1 – War Mage 0

Posted on October 23, 2016 by L. Jacob

Bad news first: War Mage is not going to be out in November. The editor sent the book back to me, half-read, saying that I had no plot. I have a theme, which is not the same as the plot. … Continue reading →
