I'm Back
August 15th 2009 20:50
Anyone who commented on the posts I've made over the last few days will notice that their comments are now being responded to-and thanks to everyone who's been reading-as I am back from the cottage.
I had a great time. I did pretty much everything I wanted to do in terms of writing except outlining the pre-Nano course I have planned. I went swimming twice every day except yesterday, when I only got down to the beach once (I wish I could've gone twice though). I watched the sun rise and set on the beach, and we had lots of fun with fire.
Today I have to catch up on my Augnowrimo. For the end of this week my goal is/was 45K, and I'm currently at 37K. I hope to write 3-5K tonight and finish the rest tomorrow.
I'm also working on Bleed, the poetry collection. I'm hoping to have 30-40 poems in it by my birthday because I would like to submit it to the Youthful Wisdom Press. Having an actual publisher behind my work will help a lot with marketing it, so hopefully I'll sell a lot more copies. Due to the sensitive nature of Bleed's content, I don't intend to announce it to my friends or most of my family, but if I do sign up with Youthful Wisdom Press I will have to get my mother to sign the contract for me.
Once I've hit 50K, which I'm actually hoping to do Monday, I will be starting work on A Cutter's Journey good and proper. It's going to be research intensive, mostly finding websites that I had bookmarked on another computer but don't currently have any real access to.
Tonight I'll be posting the Sunrise on the Beach exercise. I did get pictures of the sunset, but not the sunrise; I'm going to wait until the pictures are sent to me to post my other exercises because they'll be so much better with the pictures.
I had a lot of fun, I'm so glad that I got out of the city for once, and I feel a lot better and more at peace with everything. You can expect more posting later.
