It's been weeks since I've logged in here and I think I'm finally realizing I just don't have time to come here too often. Sorry to everyone who might be waiting on me for something! To be safe, I'm just going to be "on hiatus" for now until I find more time in the the week to sit down at the computer! Yikes! |
I understand. Hope you are doing good. |
Miss seeing you around! |
Hey all! Everyone needs to check out "Genre Auction and Fundraiser" ! There are lots of great packages to bid on (and I've donated two!). Please take a look and get those bids in. ** Images For Use By Upgraded+ Only ** |
One of the best things about WDC is that everyone works together to help Newbies figure things out around here! "Invalid Item" is in the last days of the September Showcase! Please check out our featured members and consider recognizing them. Leave a review, send a note, buy some raffle tickets. Make this month special for them.

Well, even though Elvis has definitely left the building, and Sinatra's ghost secretly fiddles with the roulette wheels, I hear that Tony Bennet occasionally shows up to straighten out the hotel laundry. Just make sure you don't bet the house. The floor shows apparently still require sunglasses. All that glitters...................... |

One of my current goals is to increase the discussions that happen on the forums. Maybe I need more adult contact due to the annual summer-heat-sequester that happens here in Phoenix, Az! Anyhow, if you're new or maybe not-so-new, check out

We have been discussing our current projects and our approach to giving and receiving reviews. I'd love to see more participation and get to know all the WDC members a bit better, so please join the conversation! And, if you have another topic you'd like to chat about, by all means start a new thread. |
My first chapter, "Invalid Entry" has been edited and posted. I'm working increasing the main character's voice, removing filtering words, and really focusing on the important things (taking out non-essential stuff). Now to move on to other chapters. Lots of work to do! |
My goal this summer was to write. And I'm doing it! I just updated "Invalid Entry" , which is the 4th Chapter in my long-winded novel. I'm working on cutting out the stuff that's boring and unnecessary and really focusing on increasing pace and POV. Though I can't always write each day, when I do write, I'm at the computer off and on for HOURS. Which I love to do! |
Good for you! I can't write at the computer because my mind draws a complete blank. I have to write on paper and then go sit down and type it up. It takes longer, but I get to revise more when I do that...at least that's what I tell myself. |
I've not tried to write on paper since high school My fingers go much faster typing, and I like the ease of copy-paste and delete with the computer. I also like to compose on my iPad with a bluetooth keyboard, but can also (and this is WEIRD) compose on my iPhone using just my thumbs to type. I've written entire chapters this way, in bed in the middle of the night, when the inspiration hit! Lucky I have mad thumb-typing skills...it's all that texting I do. Haha! |
