Clan update and Google Reader
July 16, 2008 by Melissa
So, I am behind, as usual. I am rewriting and rewriting chapter two(gotta up that sexual tension) and tore out some scenes. The new scenes are actually making it longer, lol. That is the first time that has happened. I am also contemplating a contest for readers to keep me going. Keep an eye out for that this weekend.
I have to say that as a writer, I think I knew this book was going to test my limits, and that is why I have held off writing it. Stupid and a bit lazy. But, as painful as it has been, I think I am pushing myself into another level of writing. It hurts almost physically to do it. Still, I think this is going to make me a better writer, mainly thanks to Shelley Bradley. She has been nice enough to bang my head to get it done.
In other news, I finally signed up for Google Reader. I have all my friends, and several reader blogs set up so I can see if they posted anything for the day. I hope it helps keep me up to date with my buds and what books everyone is reviewing on their blogs.
Well, I am off to find some NEKKID pics for birthday celebrations.

Okay I’m getting all set up with Google Reader too and I am LOVING it. WOOHOO!
I feel that way about my writing too - it’s painful. But you know… I sometimes think that’s when we produce our best stuff!
I think you are write in that:) I get more positive comments from readers about my historicals and they are some of the hardest stuff for me to write.
Go Mel! It’s so awesome that you’re growing as a writer while writing the Clan book!
Thanks, MB. It has been exciting along with the pain, and I am so hoping it is worth it and I’m not fooling myself:)
