NaNoWriMo and the Ambitious Writer

It's that time again. I'm going to tie up my muse, strap on the caffeine IV and attempt to cram 50,000 words of awesome into 30 days of crazy. What does this mean? Well, I'll finish the second book in the Savannah series for sure next month. And possibly finish the first part of the serial I've been toying around with for months. For the record, those stories have several chapters and quite a bit of notes between them. I just need a major push to get both finished. NaNo also means I'll be crazier than usual. I wonder if anyone will notice.

If anyone wants to follow my progress, I'll be here, hopped up on leftover Halloween candy and overdosed on hope.

It's that time again! Six sentences from my novella, The Strength of a Man.

“Just touch me already!”

give me strength (oh look, good reviews!)

It's been a colorful summer. Not sure I need to get into all of the drama (a good deal of which was the voices in my head arguing about stories), but things are looking up. I'm getting reviews in for The Strength of a Man, which is awesome. The story goes into some heavy territory, so I was worried about how it would be received, but sometimes I worry for nothing (please remind me of this after I release my next story).

After the great reviews from The Armchair Reader and Hearts on Fire, I was sure I'd reached my quota. Then I remembered genies grant three wishes, so I got another gem in response to my novella. Check out the review from Outlaw Reviews by clicking here.

I've also been getting some great responses to See Right Through on Amazon. Three five star reviews. Wow. I hope people are this responsive to the next in the series. Lee's story will be finished...okay, I'm not crazy enough to give a date. lol I'll keep updating. I did make significant progress on it this week. Apparently, Lee may not be satisfied with a novella length story, so the next in the series will probably be novel length.

Just a reminder: you can find buy links or read samples for all my stories (that aren't free) on my website, sarawinters.net.

Anyway, what am I doing now? Getting ready to...

My brain feels like it's in 100 places at once right now. I can't focus, let alone figure out what to say in this thing. Surprising, right? I suppose that's what comes from averaging four hours of...
