PROGRESS REPORT: WEEK ENDING NOVEMBER 16, 2019

♫Second verse. Same as the first.♫—Henry the 8th by Herman's Hermits.

Or in other words, still working on the SOLITAIRE novel.

Am currently on Chapter Twelve, 28,000+ words into the project.

The first half of the novel takes place in New York City.

The second half???

We'll see...

"And now for something completely different."—Monty Python's Flying Circus.

Every other Thursday night (or thereabouts, because I don't know yet how or if we'll be doing the next one since it should be the week of Thanksgiving) I gather online with a few friends.

We hang out, discuss writing, and read what we've worked on since our last meeting.

Writing a lot of times can be a singular, solitary occupation so it's great to have a chance to discuss doing so with others who actually know what I'm talking about.
Their enthusiasm, encouragement, and advice helps too.

So here's to Jaime Ramos, Teel James Glenn, Wayne Carey, and Nancy Hansen.

I'm honored to be your friend.

Better get back to writing now.

Take care, and I'll see you all around the Internet.

PROGRESS REPORT: WEEK ENDING AUGUST 25, 2018

♫Second verse, same as the first.♫—Herman's Hermits (Henry the 8th)

Still working on HUGH MONN, PRIVATE DETECTIVE, BOOK 3: FEMME FATALE.

Have reached "Point A" in Chapter 21 and am right now trying to decide the best way to reach "Point B".

Or, in other words: I know what I want to do, just not sure how to do it.

Have a doctor's appointment and a few other things to do this coming week, but any available writing time will be dedicated to HUGH.

In any event, I better get back to writing now.
Have a great week and I'll see you around the Internet.
