Been toying around with an idea for a vampire story. Actually, it involves other elements besides vampires, but that's the main plot. There's also witches and ghosts and it sounds really good in my head.

With the baby coming though, I feel I won't have much time to devote to writing, so I'm more or less focusing my creative attention to plotting out the story and fleshing out the characters. At least when I do start writing, I'll know what I'm writing about...

...unlike my NaNoWriMo project. I think I failed that mainly because I didn't really have a solid idea. Perhaps next year.

I may get to writing on this new story sooner that I expect. I just don't want to overdo things. Taking it easy, ya know? Writing was never supposed to be work. I used to do it for fun.

I want things to be like they were before, without having to worry right now about editing or deadlines or promotion.

I would also like to finish The Fireborn, and get started on it's sequel. So far, I've been working on it for over a year now and I'm more or less halfway through a first draft.

Sigh.

Yeah, when I got sick earlier this month, NaNo became the last thing on my mind. So, yeah...only 5k. That's it.
 
I tried.
 
I think I have some other things on my mind anyway.
 
Everything's going good with the baby. Everyone keeps asking. Morning sickness sucks, but I'm fine. I've got some meds for it.

And for those who don't know and haven't guess yet, I am preggers! About 11 weeks along.
 
Christmas will be tough this year, but that's okay.
 
A few things on my mind: Twilight, New Moon...great if you're 12. For me, it's Anne Rice's Vampire Chronicles. Those are the books I read when I was 12. forget the sparkly vampires. Give me some with fangs, please. Thanks. As for Team Edward or Team Jacob: It's Team I-Don't-Give-A-Crap. Tried to read the books. Couldn't take it. I'll find other reading material.
 
Sims 3 is fun. My characters do weird things though. Like eat an entire birthday cake. She got huge and I had to make her excercise...just like real life...which, face it, isn't happening any time soon.
 
The writing things not going so great, but yall probably guessed that from the lack of NaNo progress. I'm trying to get back to the point where writing isn't a job, where it's actually fun. Maybe take some the pressure off.
 
Seriously, I do not want to stress out right now. The holidays are bad enough.
 
Anyway, I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving!

First off, no luck on chapter 12 or 13. Guess I'm not in a writing mood lately.

Updated my website today. www.rosemariewolf.com. Updated a few things and added a few new links, like to Twitter and Facebook.

Speaking of, http://www.twitter.com/RoseMarieWolf and http://www.facebook.com/rosemariewolf

Also, if any of you use PaperBack Swap, I'm a member there. I've got quite a few books I'm trying to swap, so if anyone of you is a member as well, and interested, check me out at http://rosemariewolf.paperbackswap.com

Well, I guess that's all for now. Think I might do a little reading.

...I'm getting this feeling that I'm going to redo a lot of the book. Parts of it are not sitting well with me. Some of it's going too slow, some too fast. There are things I want to add, and take out.

And the whole time, I can't help but think "Damn, I'm writing all this just to get rid of it."

But I know that's not true.

This week, I hope to finish chapters 12 and 13.

I think I'm about halfway there with my WIP.

I only plan on having twenty chapters for my book...but it might change, depending on what happens, but the story is falling into place. Well, more or less. There are some parts that are running slow, but I can edit that, cut some stuff out later or whatever.

So, yeah, I just started chapter eleven today, so I'm halfway there.

Now, I need to finish 3000 words for today.

I finally got back into the groove, so the writing thing's going pretty okay. At least I'm meeting my goals, more or less.
 
I admit, I did skip some days, but you try working at Wal-Mart all day, then trying to write in the evening on top of every day household stuff. It's not easy. I think I prefer writing on my days off. I just kind of save up my daily quotas, add them all together, and then try to write that, plus extra.
 
My main concern right now is that my story is moving slowly. I know I will eventually cut a lot of it, but I'm nowhere near where I want to be, plotwise.
 
Oh well, that's what the editing process is for.

I wonder if July will be better than June? It has to be.

I'm getting through. It's tough, sure, and there are days when I just want to do nothing but stay home in my jammies and cry.

But I can't afford that. Have to be strong.

I'm sick of it.

As far as writing goes, I haven't written one word the entire month of June. Did some edits, but that was deadline-esque stuff. I just can't seem to find it in my to sit and write. There's too much going on.

I don't know. Hopefully, July will be better.

I will be visiting my family in Kentucky this weekend, so I will be away. I won't be checking blogs and groups, but I will be checking email. If any of ya'll need me, I'm just an email away.
 
I'll be back Monday.
 
I'm going to be visiting my cousin's family. I hadn't gotten around to posting this yet (I already thought I had, but grief is a funny thing) but my cousin shot and killed himself last week. We were close growing up.

It's going to be hard, but I am excited about seeing my family. My nephew and his girlfriend had a baby boy...so I'm a great aunt again.

Birth and Death. Guess it's as good a time as any to visit.

Also, father's day and my dad's birthday are on the same day. I'm going to be busy.

Our cat Spike was hit by a van last night.

Some person was speeding down the little side street near our house. Cindy was taking Princess out for a walk and our cat Spike decided to follow. He never EVER does that.

So, Cindy tried to keep spike from dashing out, but he's a scaredy cat anyway. He dashed out in front of it. The driver didn't even stop or slow down.

And Spike's dead.

He was the sweetest kitty ever.

I was really pissed about it (still am) but now I'm more sad. I miss my Spikey. :-(
