Goal! Once A Week

Ok my goal is to blog at least once a week. There. I have a stated goal. Writing... it's awesome. Though I need models! Male models! To stand there looking pretty while I'm writing out descriptions of them. Actually I just need a 6 foot 4 or 5 and a 6 footer. That covers most of the range.

I'm starting to build to the climax of this whole thing and it's awesome. I'm working mostly at the moment on the goth-horror novel. That's the one that climax is starting to build. The plot is thickening. There's a few incidents of confrontation.

I already know how it's going to end. The bad guy gets punished... I might kill him off. One useless person less in the imaginary world. I read my favorite author's blog today. She hits being a writer on the nail sometimes. It's scary too.. more often than not I'm just nodding along. Because to write it is hard. Some days it just flows out of me in restless anticipation. Some days I fight for every single sentence.

This is the hardest thing I've ever written (the book, not the blog). I'm writing it in first person. And it's hard to combine it all and it still be interesting and fun. It would be sooo much easier if I switched voice positions and did it the other way. It certainly makes writing on the Regency a pleasant break.

Enough of my writing obsession though. My Mom comes into town tomorrow. I haven't seen her since February. So this is going to be awesome. This is the first time she's seeing my new place. I will take pictures of my domain and post. I promise. Just not yet.

Mom's baking me mac and cheese, and a pineapple upside down cake to bring over. I'm loved. We'll be visiting a rose garden this weekend. I'll take pictures and post those as well.
