Your goals sound great! Exciting! 😀

Oh, by the way, if you’re interested there’s a new-ish website accepting guest posts currently. It’s authorssupportingauthors.com

@jenwriter17

for the novel I just started I want to get the first draft done by this fall. Doubtful, but it’s my hope

@jenwriter17

how many words do you think it will be at?

my goal is to finish up Decisions in the next couple of months, rewrite it over the summer, get it edited and then self publish probably by spring of 2021, but I’m still hoping for fall of this year

@alia

Thanks! Yes, it’s my NaNo novel. I think we probably did talk about it before here. I’m about 60k words in so far. I’m hoping to finish the first draft by the end of January, and fully edit it (including professional editor) during 2020. Do you have any writing goals for the year?

@jenwriter17

I’m just taking some general ed classes, ones that I need for every degree and will transfer when I end up going to university.

it looks good. Was this one your nano novel? I feel like we’ve talked about it before. How far along are you in it?

@alia

Life really likes to get in the way of writing, doesn’t it? What kind of college classes are you taking?

Here’s the blurb for my superhero book:

@jenwriter17

yeah, I haven’t written more than a sentence in one sitting since August. College classes have been taking their toll.
What’s your superhero story about?

thats what I’m mostly leaning towards

@alia Okay. I’ll probably be off and on too.

I haven’t been working on much during most of December, but I’ve been mostly focusing on my superhero book and writing a guest post (currently).

Combining different aspects of cultures sounds interesting!

@jeneriter17, I’m debating on making it an actual historical fiction or if I should just take aspects of different cultures and make a new fictional world

@jenwriter17, I’ll be on off and on.
It’s plain fiction, no fantasy elements at all.

what have you been working on lately?

@alia Awesome! 😀 I’ll be on for a little bit. What’s the genre of your new WIP?

@jenwriter17, I am!

@alia Are you still here?

@jenwriter17, @rochellaine, @seekjustice, @dekreel, @ariel-ashira, @valtmy

I’m working on a new WIP if anyone wants to join me

@seekjustice Huh, that’s too bad.

@jenwriter17 Hey there!  I’ve got to go, so I’ll talk to you again later.

Farewell!

@rochellaine

That last post worked but my last few haven’t for some reason.

@rochellaine

Good grief, what is Kingdom Pen doing?

@rochellaine @seekjustice I can’t write right now, but HAPPY NEW YEAR, EVERYONE! 😀 What are you guys most looking forward to in 2020?

@seekjustice Ah yes, research can be exhausting! 🙂

I remember discussing Aida with you a bit when you first discovered it.  I never actually ended up listening to it, (probably because I’m really not at all into ancient Egypt, 😉 ) but sounds like you’ve enjoyed it.  What’s one of your favorite Celtic songs?  I love Celtic music, but don’t ac…[Read more]

@rochellaine

I’m slowly pegging away at my WIP. It’s set in WW1 and I’m suffering from a classic case of there being far too much research and I’m feeling swamped by it all.

I’m not sure that I have found many new musicals lately. I’ve been listening to Aida a fair bit and a lot of Scottish Gaelic and Irish music. Not a lot of musicals…[Read more]
