Yes, I’m writing again!! 2,000 words into a new novel currently titled “18 Days”. Writing from a first person MALE POV. Not easy for me but it seems to be flowing well. Wish me luck!!

From “18 Days” (a novel excerpt)
I started this novel awhile ago and I want to get back into it. I’m having trouble getting into my characters heads, however. I thought that by sharing it with you, my wonderful blog followers, I might trip the circuits in my brain into thinking about John & Jane again. Any feedback would be appreciated! If nothing else, I simply enjoy sharing what I write…someday someone might even give me money for it. 😉
I’m on a Contest Shortlist!
Hey there! I’ve been shortlisted for a contest on Mash Stories! And…I need your help!
Help me choose a storyline
I have two storylines I’m contemplating for April’s Camp NaNoWriMo. I can’t decide which is more interesting to focus on. I would love your thoughts on these two ideas.

Silence [A Poem]
I’m feeling the gray skies crowd around and more than a little Eeyore-ish this week. I’m sharing an old poem that kinda sums up my heart at the moment.
MY NOVEL IS DONE!!
YES, MY NOVEL IS DONE!
OK, to be fair, there’s the whole edit, refine, fluff, blah blah blah to do. But the thing is DONE. Written. And I’m pretty doggone happy about it!!
WOO HOO!!!
Novel Thoughts: A Short Blog Break
During the month of November I probably won’t be on Eccentric Randomness very much. There’s that whole National Novel Writing Month thing going on and my writing skills are needed on that. But, if you’re missing me, you can check out my “Novel Thoughts” blog. Over there, I just drop quick thoughts as I go through the process of writing a full novel in 30 days. It’s a simple way for me to journal the process and not feel like I need to add images or styling or anything. It’s not pretty but it can be pretty funny. 🙂 I’ll see you back here for sure in December!
NaNoWriMo: A New Novel
Today kicks off NaNoWriMo – or National Novel Writing Month for those not in the know. I wasn’t sure if I’d join the pool of crazy writers this year but when I woke up today, I had the itch to write again. So…I jumped in the deep in. I’ve already pumped out about 1,200 words in an hour!
Social Shares = Short Story Payment
My blog is feeling a little unloved recently so I’m going to give away a piece of myself – my blood, sweat, tears in the form of a short story – to get it a bit more attention.
