I’m continuing toward my goal of writing 50,000 words of fiction in June for the Southern Cross Novel Challenge! I’ve had a lot of ups and downs this past week, with many exciting moments.
However, I’ve been remiss in posting blogs lately…the latest episode (at the top) tells why. It took me two videos and a good amount of Kleenex to explain. 
Day 26 - Origins, Part 1
Day 26, and I explain the origins of my novel–and something of my own life’s story.

Day 21 of the Southern Cross Novel Challenge–a day when I realize that environment has an effect on the words I write.

Day Nine of SoCNoC–did I write anything yesterday? Maybe I just followed the beat of a different drummer…

Day eight of the Southern Cross Novel Challenge, and I discuss mysteries, spoilers…and the title of my book.

Day Six of the 2008 Southern Cross Novel Challenge. I’m running with inspiration…and beginning to think that I’m talking too fast for my camera…
Also going to work on the video quality in future, but today I was losing light and on my way out the door. So…here’s a slice of reality.

It’s Day five of the Southern Cross Novel Challenge. Threads of story build into a tapestry, and make something beautiful out of my writing…I hope.
By the way, I haven’t converted my blog to all-video…I’ve just been a bit out of words lately. More text posts are in the works, as well!
