Voice Pianissimo

I’ve issued myself a challenge—read the whole Earthsea series in the month of June. Getting started tonight. Back to reading! #reading #writersofinstagram #fantasy #amreading

Guys. Only 2 more chapters! #amwriting #amediting #sprints #rewrites #YAFantasy #writersofinstagram #thewritelife #TalesofAureliya

I’m only 6 chapters away from finishing this rewrite! Today’s the day I’ll finish it. #amwriting #amediting #rewrites #thewritelife #writersofinstagram #TalesofAureliya

Found the perfect background pic to inspire me on this rewrite! #thewritelife #writersofinstagram #amediting #rewrites #amwriting #TalesofAureliya

Old and marked up vs much cleaner MS. Working through Ch 12! #amwriting #writersofinstagram #ameditingfantasy #yafantasy #TalesofAureliya

I’ve finished my initial edit!! Now on to fixing those mistakes. One month, and every page looks like this one. #challengeaccepted✔ #letsdothis #thewritelife #yafantasy #talesofaureliya

When it’s time to #edit and you have a lot of work to do.... #workinghard #thewritelife #writingstruggles #amwriting #drafteightornine #deadlines

Thought I might work on a few character sketches during my #editingbreak. Slow going, but it’s coming around to how I see the character :) #sketches #characters #thewritelife

When you need coffee, chocolate, and no less than two notebooks and two hours to edit one chapter. #itsgonnabealongday #atleastihavecoffee #amesiting #chocolate #Aureliya #coffeeshops

Enjoying some downtime to catch up on #nanowrimo2017 #amwriting #the writelife #playingcatchup

And we’re ready for regional performance! #gocats #marchingband #jaspermarchingwildcats

So, I’m already behind! But regardless of my lack of consistency, here’s #WIPjoy Day 11: A line that describes your protagonist. #amwriting #writing things #thewrite life

#WIPjoy Day 5: Ask a question other writers might be able to help with! #amwriting #editing #thewritelife #fantasy #uniquevoice

Resting up at the hotel before round 2 for marching band! #gocats #jaspermarchingwildcats #murraystate #airconditioningiswonderful #booklover (at Murray State University)

Ready for marching band contest number two!! #gocats #jaspermarchingwildcats #musicality

It's a good morning for coffee and editing. :) #amediting #thewritelife
