a trip

Tomorrow I'm going to Florida. So really my goal to post everyday just isn't working out. To many days where I draw a blank on what to post about.

On the Write side of my life
I realized what wrong with my story. The last 20,000 words or so what don't go with the first 15,000 words. They are two different stories. I realized that my heroine doesn't need to run away, she leave the plot behind. There really isn't any story after that part just a set of events. The story really take place in the first 8 chapters. I need to keep her in one place and have her faces her monsters head on. It'll make the story more interesting.

What problems have you noticed in your story once you started revising?

No Guts, No Guy

A few years ago my college roommate and I read an article titled No Guts, No Guy. We were both transfer to a new school and wanted a new start. We were shy each in our own way. So we made a banner to go across out dorm room's doorway. In big letters it said NO Guts, NO GUYS. And in our case it was true. We didn't have boyfriends or any guys to date. It seem like a good way to encourage us to smile, flirt and have a good time.

The same is true for heroines in novels. Most heroines have guts! Or if she doesn't get grow braver and stronger in her journey. She get the guy because she out there making then world better or worse in same cases. The point is that no guts, no guys is so true in novels.

So what is your heroine doing to show she has guts and will get the guy in the end? Mine is trying to save her father.

Be Bold!


So since it a new year I want a change. One of the quickest way to have a change is to have a hair cut. For the past few weeks I desired the Pixie also known as the Chop. I think there a few more names for this hairstyle. Only today I changed my mind. Right now my hair is pass my shoulders. So maybe a Pixie is too bold, so now I'm thinking a Bob. If I like my hair that short maybe later I'll ask for a Pixie.

Courge

Right now I'm sitting in Best Western breakfast room, listening to chairs squeak, a 24 hours news channel, and people waking up over coffee and juice. I'm visiting a small town in south Alabama, to hear Bill Johnson preach about supernatual courge. If you think about it, God gave a good many people in the Bible supernatual courge.

If anything is misspelled I'm sorry my connect is weak so it not going to spellcheck.

Later,
