Writing, Publishing and Life Update – October 23, 2020

There’s not a ton to report this week. I added about 5,000 words to the romance novel, and edited a couple of chapters of Revolution Part Two. I also (re)launched The Pixie and the Professor, a 99 cent short formerly known as Shiny: A Clockwork Fairytale.

And then yesterday several freelance writing assignments came in, so those are going to dominate my schedule for the next week. I’m squeezing in novel writing sprints where I can, though.

But I produced a lot of words this week, and my brain is very tired, and I’m very glad it’s Friday. And it’s only eight more days till Halloween! I’m so excited!

Last Saturday, my husband and I had a lovely date in our own back yard, where we day camped at the back of the property and cooked hot dogs and sausages over our new camping stove and then got in a few rounds of target practice. We capped off the day with more pre-Halloween festivities, which included popcorn, candy and Bram Stoker’s Dracula. Tomorrow will be our last Halloween preview before the main event. I’m not sure what we’ll be watching but I think hot dog mummies are on the menu.

I’ll leave you with this reminder that I wrote a whole series of books featuring a ghostly protagonist that is a perfect Halloween read. If you’re not familiar with Restless Spirits, now’s a great time to check it out.

Have a great weekend!
