The NaNoWriMo site says uploading a cover for your novel increases your chances of winning by 60%, so today I took a little break for some Photoshop fun. I know, I've taken a lot of breaks already. I'm looking at the blog post of my fellow Swoon Reads author K.A. Cozzo and feeling capital-L Lazy because this is my day job. To be honest, though, I prefer to think of myself less as a writer and more as a reviser. Revision is the task I can sit down to do for hours. I think it's because by then I know my characters so well that it's like meeting old friends at a coffee shop. Drafting? Now that's like going to a party where you don't know anyone - it's just awkward, especially for those of us who prefer to communicate in written form. Note-passing over cocktails? Yeah, not cool. Anyway, here's my NaNo cover image. Here's hoping it inspires more words!

You're absolutely right! Writing is more about the revising. I think that's what aspiring writers forget. They're afraid to get the story onto paper because of whatever doubts plaguing them at the time when really it's about having something to work with in the end. Having something to "fix" and make better. Love the post! I created a cover for my latest NaNo project as well. Got carried away and did two more. LoL!

I ordered a job spell on a Friday night and on Monday the place I applied for a job called for me to come by their office. They gave me the job I applied for and made me an offer of more per hour than I have ever made in my life! I am so happy! Government jobs sometimes are a slow process. You somehow managed to speed up that process, and I start in just a few days! DR EMU I will be forever grateful thanks once again.

My ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February 2017. But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him.. This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. My spell is working because guess what: My “husband” is back and we are making preparations on how to go to court and withdraw our divorce papers ASAP. This is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you Dr Emu for your powerful spells. Words are not enough.

Reflections on Writing
I love few things better than a bottomless to-read list of books and firmly believe the world has room for all the stories we want to share. This blog is intended to provide resources and spark discussion about improving writing. Opinions are my own and not intended to discredit anyone else's work, only to open conversation. Thanks for reading!
