Can’t fall asleep. I’ve been up for the last three hours writing the rest of the book in my head. It sometimes happens this way. There’s a big blank space for a while, and I feel like I’m in the dark. Then all of a sudden, a flood of ideas will hit me like a […]
Chapter 27. Fuck it. That sweater bit is staying in.
Just finished Chapter 22, at 53,500 words, and my lovely little meter on Scrivener has turned yellow. Half-way to green and picking up steam. Latest chapter has me thinking I need to revisit some of the classic gothic romances. I can’t reference them in my book without being totally up to speed. Note to self: […]
Chapter 16. Maybe I should research what an accountant actually does. I mean, outside of tax returns and stuff. Pretty sure they don’t normally beat the stew out of people like Ben Affleck in that movie. (Props though for having an action hero on the spectrum.) Of course, my Beau may be looking to kick […]

Chapter 14, Scene 2. Beau and PJ’s sweater. Hmmm. Probably shouldn’t have gone there. This might not make it through editing.
New goal: 60,000 words by end of February and gotta include some kissing action somewhere in that business. Why do I slow burn the hell outta my ships? I’m kind of mean that way. Also, note to self: Start researching water-skiing terminology. Another note to self: Reexamine the southern idioms. They might be a little […]
Wrapping up Ch. 13. At 29, 133 words. Only need about 900 more by Friday to meet self-imposed writing goal, so I can give myself buckets of gold stars. Can do attitude, DB. Be the ball, Happy. Just fucking do it, Dots.
Ha, ha! Taco Tuesday, Shirley Temples, flirting, tension. Loving Chapter 9.
