Challenges...

Family/Friends,

The first week of my writing challenge went well as I met my 1K word quota everyday.  As far as the reading challenge is concerned I'm lagging a bit, but I'll catch up this week.

As it pertains to other challenges is finding the time to do promotions amongst they myriad of other commitments I have. Facebook and Twitter thankfully are great when it comes to disseminating information about promotions and book releases. As such, I'm using these two mediums exclusively. I'll tell you guys that another effective way of promoting has been online interviews, links which I've already shared. That said, I will be forwarding a new interview link tomorrow :-)

Well that's all I have for now folks.

Be well and until next time!
Maria

Writing is HARD work. There I said it!

Recently, I had a conversation with a fellow writer about different writing styles. We talked about how some writers can simply sit down on a computer and write on command; I cannot. My pre-writing process can take me ten, fifteen, twenty minutes or more and it usually involves me ‘getting in to character’; I need to connect with the hero and heroine before I can delve into their lives. It is then when I’m emotionally attached that ideas begin to form I’m able to capture the thoughts and the scenes and the story begins to unfold. I can tell you that when I begin to write a story, I too experience the same nervousness that a lot of writers feel. Will anyone read my stuff? Will anyone care about what I have to say? This is the fretful process of a writer, yet, we, I, push forward and write with excitement, optimism, and a lot of discipline. On an amusing note (or maybe not so) one thing that we, writers, often encounter is that non-writers tend to think that writing is easy.
