After a late night of watching horror movies, and having deal with a service man from the phone company who was out to fix a problem with the line that's been going on for months, I got a late start on the first day of NaNoWriMo. Didn't get as much writing time in as I'd hoped, but did manage to get down 1,042 words.
For those of you participating in NaNoWriMo this year, how'd your first day go?

NaNoWriMo

Good luck to everyone participating in NaNoWriMo this year! I'm off to start my book. Happy writing!

NaNoWriMo Update

Didn't get a chance to work on my outline Wednesday because of a fire that ravaged the back side of my property. Got a detailed outline of the first two chapters done today, though, so at least that's something. I'd hoped to have the whole thing finished today and ready for the start of NaNoWriMo on Friday, but alas, such is my luck that I didn't get it done. Whelp, off to watch a Nightmare On Elm Street marathon.

It's available here on Amazon.com Tony's Doll




Book Description:

While strolling through a flea market one afternoon, Tony Lowder is spoken to by an innocent looking doll.

After an ensuing battle of man against doll, Tony manages to lock the demon doll into an old chest where it bides its time, plotting its revenge.

Got quite a bit done today. Filmed some short videos for the new and improved website for my film company, wrote a review of a story on Goodreads, signed up for NaNoWriMo (if you're participating, be sure to look me up NaNoWriMo, and just finished watching Tremors 2, 3, and 4.

What did you do this weekend?

NANOWRIMO

Just signed up for National Novel Writing Month for the first time. Anyone else doing it this year? Now I just have to decide which of the three novels I have to write I'm going to choose.

Just a heads up...

The Kindle edition of my YA horror novel Tony's Doll, will be available for FREE on October 31st!

I haven't had much time to keep up with this blog for awhile. I've been busy working on getting the shooting script finalized for a film I'm directing (follow that here: I Love You Because Facebook Group Page to keep track of all the exciting goings on with that project) and doing some film work for friends so haven't really had much time to update the blog. And I mostly access the internet on my phone now; and it's keyboard is way too small to do much typing. Got some more writing projects to start on and will hopefully be able to update this blog more often.



In the mean time, kindly check out my YA novel Tony's Doll, available on Kindle; or, for those purists among you, it's also available as a good oldfashioned book.

Waiting to hear back from Amazon about my YA novel, Tony's Doll, being accepted for Kindle.

Finally back to a daily writing schedule! Once the play I directed was over, I had a few false starts, getting back into the swing of things and finding my way back in to the projects I was working on. I've written every day this week and completed two chapters in a novel I'm working on, worked out some structural details for a screenplay, and even have time to write this post.

Gonna do my Insanity work out for the day;  then organize my office (it needs it), then hopefully catch up on last night's episode of Supernatural which I missed because my brother and I were filming a scene for a contest. Once the video is done, I'll post a link. In case you don't know, my brother and I make films, you can check out our work on Facebook or our website DaJa Vu Films.

Oh, and does anyone know of a good Kindle template? I've tried looking, but haven't really found one. I want to convert my YA novel Tony's Doll to Kindle and don't have Mircosoft Word, and the formatting instructions don't work very well for OpenOffice. Anyone who can help, I'll send you a free Kindle copy of the novel when it's set up.

I think that's everything. What have all of you been up to?
