Proofs ordered
Got proof ordered forHope of the Future.I also was able to order the proof forDon’t Go Faras well.The paperback was done, I was just waiting to order it until I got paid from Amazon.
Since I had a scene dealing with a hologram, I made this thumbnail image to go with it. (This is Haley.)In Under Empty Stars, this style of hologram image is actually “old tech,” haha.
Right now I’m waiting on Ancient Scars from Jeanie. Should be tonight or tomorrow I get it. I’m gonna get started with another s...

Haley is making me cry all over again
Thanks to Haley, I had an emotional day of writing.I kept trying to calm down, then whoop there I go again. Fshew. I couldn’t pull myself away from the story. Some intense stuff going on there and I wanted to keep going. Dogs wouldn’t have appreciated it at all.
I mentioned the otherday I’ve been catching up on myOrphan Black,and I am near two seasons behind. I’m halfway now through the 3rd season. I think it’s the 3rd. Whatever we’re on now, I’m on the last, haha.
Sad day yesterday though....

Crazy Day
Finally done with all my pages.Going around and cleaning up all the random menu items that I have no true need for. I’m gonna be starting myHope of the Futurepaperback here in less than an hour, hopefully.
Been watchingOrphan Blackin the morningsto catch up . While I watch the show, I can’t help but think that Tatiana Maslany deserves huge recognition. She plays so many varying characters on that show. It’s incredible. And it seems so real. She’s an amazing actress. If you’ve never seen the...

Think I got it all
I have two more pages to fix on this site.From now on, I’m not doing fancy linkage for my books. I have to fix the ones I have on the pages that were transfered and let me tell you how much fun that is to format . . . what, nearly ten images per post? Ten small images per post mind you.
Maybe when I hire an assistant, they can fancy up the book pages. For now, simple works for me fine enough.
Got my newsletter done, still time to sign up if you’d likefirst look accessto the first chapter ofD...

Multiple POV
Switching viewpoints today.I wasn’t thinking I would end up writing from another POV in this book, but today it turned out that way. Then while I was writing today, I had the idea pop into my head that I may end up crisscrossingmany different POV’s from here on out. The ones in the story, but still, I’ve been fairly consistent with not doing that. I do a couple POV’s but not alot.
It’d be new for me period. I usually don’t follow a strict rule with how many scenes a person can hold and whatno...

A’nosi Prime
A’nosi Prime flyer featured in Daughter of the Red Planet. Haley comes across this flyer long since faded.
Feel free to save and share. Print, use as wallpaper.
Good enough
So today I’ll be fixing the menu and the pages on this site. In case you’ve tried to use one of those things in the past two days and got an error. It will be fixed today.
Didn’t get as many words as I would have liked, but it’s good enough. I was busy going back and forth onhttp://scifiideas.com(love the site!).I wanted to find ideas for planets and names because as I was writing, a lot of what I wrote depended on the planet I was describing. Since I had new thoughts in mind, I couldn’t get...

Moving day
Been having fun all day longwith moving things. Yesterday and the weekend includes that. My self-hosting plan comes up in a couple days, butI thought I had until November. I’d considered moving my site back to wordpress.com and then that came upso I went . . . well, that works.
Links will have been broken, images missing. I had to replace a lot of thumbnails on my posts and I know I still have a lot of things messed up, but the move is done. Since the forum disappeared, I set up a new forum t...

If you follow or subscribe to this blog
I want to let you know that this site is being switcherood. My hosting plan is up this week and rather than renew, I’m going to the simplified wp.com (MY DOMAINwill remain the same – kimberlysueiverson.com) for a year or two so I can – hopefully – not deal with too much of that extra bidness I’ve been dealing with right now.
Everything has remained on my site for wordpress.com where I was at before I switched to my own hosting so I’m not having to change too much. BUT I wanted to let you know...

More than I figured
I’m surprisedI got as many numbers as I did today. I was sluggish to start and then it just didn’t feel like I’d been writing long.Always surprising to look back and go . . . oh! I got a bunch, haha. Mostly details today, not as much story. Having to introduce the place where the majority of this book will take place.
Word count I started the day with:11,495 Word count I ended the day with: 12,705 Total for the day: 1,210 words
