National November Writing Month - What's in it for you?

Apart from the nice fluffy feeling that you can acheive a 50 thousand word novel in a month, set a goal and acheive it, what do you get? Well apart from the normal ego there is a good reason to do it. Discounted software. A better reason to win or complete the goal you get half price off some well known writing software. Scrivener and Storist.

Merely writing a novel under pressure with a bunch of strangers, sorry fellow writers doesn't do it for me. But the fact that a Loved Family Member (LFM) has promised to give me their Air Mac when they done with it, has given me an good incentive. Yes, I'm using the pural, whatever.

Purely mencanary view and I feel bad though I don't know why is that I can get Storist and Sceiver for half price if LFM does pass it down. If fact LFM usauslly give me cast offs which are much treasured and used for years.

Last year I did take part and finish a novel called Deanna and managed to claim 50% of a PC based Scrivener.

I use Storist in my iPAd and I'm fairly impressed though I really mostly use iA Writer because I get a clear sceen.

There are other valid reasons for doing it. More honourable reasons - keeping to goals, knowing you can do it, that type of stuff. Personal achievements. Then again having something tanigible is always a good thing. So why not....keep it real.

My African American & Black Love Romance Adventure Nearly Ready After Four Years.

Thanks for dropping by and taking the time to read this. This post is going to be about my upcoming black love and African American contemporary romance release, which I think tentatively will be late this year or early 2024. It will be a six-part serialised novel, and I'll reveal the date nearer the time. It has been five years since my last black love romance novel. I have two novellas published on Amazon, and I'm  pleased to finally say, I'm about to publish again. It's been a long time.  I planned to release this book in February 2019, but after a long writer's block and other things, it had taken me this long to complete it.  If you follow this blog on and off, I've spoken about it a lot over the years. I'm thinking maybe I should relabel those blog posts as a series of how it developed.  The Story Description The names have changed well from Angelica to Pippa but it's fine.  Everyone wants someone special but PIPPA MILLER thinks not her. She

Finally I'm getting close to a release date for my urban Black Love African America Romance now Pippa & Leyton

I'm working on a pre-release campaign and it isn't going how I'd like it. However if you have being reading me on and off, you'll know I've been writing some novels-in-progress for the longest times!  I stopped writing about it because it just got EMBARRASSING especially when I planned to release this book in 2019. Yes, five years ago! But it's nearly there.  Leyton & Pippa The heroine started off being called Angelica but I kept on misspelling it so I changed it to Pippa. If you look under the label Angelica & Leyton a lot will come up.  Anyway I'm exciting to say, I'm getting reading for publication soon.  Its going to be a six-part serialised instalment, and I'll have details nearer the time.  Maybe A Six Months Countdown I'm planning between three to six months, however when the details are clear, I'll write a post. I'm also doing an extended blog posts on another blog but I'll keep it short and simple here. 

On holiday And Vacation in Alcudia,Mallorca

I'm on a holiday break in Mallorca, Spain. So this means a I won't be writing the prompt. On holiday, I normally have a break from  the internet though it's difficult nowadays with free WiFi. The hotel is okay. A four star on the lower end of the scale - this means no kettle and renting the safe.   The higher end have more add ons. The room are tiny but functional and nice however in fairness it is a beach holiday destination so I doubt there is much lounging around. Food is okay. Superb beach. Everyone seems laid back and relaxed.
