New Writing Project

As I wrap up the project I’ve been working on for the past three years, the breast cancer book, I’m excited to return to the fiction stories that were put on the back burner. This is good for several reasons, one, it’s forcing me to move on and separate from the book. And two, the fiction stories are fun and lighthearted, for the most part, I’m not digging through deep emotional turmoil. Praise Jesus! 🙂

I feel a sense of confidence and competence that’s allowing me to look at the stories with fresh eyes and discernment. I’m more aware of what needs to stay and what needs to go. I know my style, weaknesses, and strengths. This time I will hire a fiction editor and try to spend less on the overall process. If that’s possible! I will still need a typesetter and cover designer. I can enjoy myself this time around.

I have the writing bug, better than the love bug or sick bug, I suppose. Wish me luck as I work on the chick lit story. It’s in pretty good shape already 40k words and 170 pages. And it still needs a lot of tender love and care. Time and effort. Dedication. Devotion. Passion. I also have a fantasy story that needs work and one that needs written. I enjoy writing dialogue and creating new worlds.
