Talking today about building up the writing habit again after a long hiatus. Also why L. Penelope is *wrong* and Good Omens is brilliant. And news on THE FATE OF THE TALA cover reveal. (It's November 1st, not 5th. Meep.)

Thoughts on how Dread & Procrastination act like ice slowly freezing up creativity, and why this metaphor works better for me than the term "Writer's Block," which I find to be damaging and misleading. Also a recap of my weekend, getting business items off my list, and how nifty technology is. The phone app I mention is ClearScanner (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.indymobileapp.document.scanner)

Excited that Seasons of Sorcery is #1 in Fantasy Anthologies! Otherwise I'm talking about dyslexia, technical trials of self-publishing, and rebuilding writing habits.

Why Building a Writing Habit is Essential

WARRIOR OF THE WORLD, which comes out January 8 2019, is being featured in a Goodreads giveaway until November 27! Great opportunity to win one of a hundred free copies! Kensington has also started a reader Facebook group called Between the Chapters. Lots of great giveaways on there – along with author chats. I’ll be doing one in January, so join up and enjoy the party!

Our topic at the SFF Seven this week is one I suggested, on the idea that “Even When You’re Not Writing, You’re Writing.” Come on over to find out what I mean – and get some NaNoWriMo tips!

Why I don't do NaNoWriMo - but why I think you should, and some advice on how. I'm giving some advice on how to "train" for NaNoWriMo and keep yourself from burning out before you finish. Also thoughts on competition and keeping to your line.

the blog post with the word count metrics I reference:

Georgia O'Keeffe quote:
"If you can believe in what you are and keep to your line - that is the most one can do with life."
