Working on something new!
Hello all! Just want to create a quick update on what I’ve been doing the last few months. Much of my writing in the last quarter of 2020 dealt with entering small horror writing contest where I won a few and lost a few. Nevertheless, those flash fiction stories are fodder on an upcoming project. I also worked more on my novel. However, I kept coming to roadblocks, and my creativity wasn’t there, so I went in another direction for the time being.
I haven’t published any stories in a very long time, and I miss it. That’s where my new project came into being. I’m creating another collection of short supernatural stories based on some of the flash fictions stories I created for the small contests.
How is it going so far, you may ask? AWESOME! I can’t believe this, but I’m averaging 750-1000 words a day! I’ve never written so much! I took a 4 day break during Super Bowl weekend, and when I started back up, I wrote 2000+ words in a single day. The stories are flowing well and my creativity is back. I always have the novel in the back of my mind, but I really want to get the first draft of this collection completed. Right now, there is no timeline, but I hope the first draft of all the stories will be completed sometime in July… then come the multiple revisions, sending them to my editor, and making final revisions. All that takes time, so be patient.
I’ve already finished one story and working on the second. I’ll keep you updated on my progress. Thanks for checking in to see how I’m doing.
Stay safe and take care!
