  1. Wrote a 3,678 word short story rough draft today. It's a sweet story, with a young apprentice who rescues a dragon from a unicorn.

    It needs revision and I'm not sure what I'll do with it after that. It's been suggested that I find markets to submit stories to and try doing that, but I've seen more articles of magazines shutting down due to AI crap than calls for submissions lately.

  3. "How to Write a Love Story: The Definitive Guide to the Most Popular Type of Story"

    I came across this post, and while I do not personally write the romance genre, I am sure someone out there needs this. It goes into a lot of detail for the genre.

  4. #PennedPossibilities 7 — Which bad habits would your MC like to change?

    Marcus - Deflecting hurt feelings with humour and sarcasm instead of talking it out.

    Ellis - Shutting down anyone who wrongs him. Being quick to judge and not so great at forgiveness. Getting into pissing contests - figuratively speaking.

    Jack - His inability to say no to someone, even if it means he ends up doing something he hates or that hurts him.

  9. From the undisputed Queen of Steamy Sex Scenes comes:

    "I Give You My Body": How I Write Sex Scenes by Diana Gabaldon

    If you're writing sex scenes in romance books, erotica, or any genre, this is hands-down one of the best books you can read.

  11. Have to change POVs for a scene. Sometimes, like this time, it's a lot of work. Ugh.

  12. I want to do a romance-specific version of #WritingWonders with questions like "In your MCs' relationship, who opens stuck jars?" "What was the worst date they ever went on (do they agree)?" "Can/do your MCs wear each others' clothes?"

    Buuuut I don't have 28 of these things. I have five. Tant pis.

  14. @AlexJaneWrites there's an author I really like & admire & she posts things like, "I wrote 4000 words before breakfast." I feel as if we live in different universes and I'm not good enough for hers.

    A good day for me is about 300 or 400 words. That's all. Each word feels as if it had been chipped out of rock. I'll go & do the ironing sometimes to get away from my shame at being so unproductive.

    So if there's a #SlowWriting movement, sign me up!
