It Is Done.

Posted on December 17, 2021December 17, 2021 By Lucille Yates 1 Comment on It Is Done.
It Is Done.
Progress Update

I finished my novella, The Wolf and the Necromancer It is finished. It is done.
I submitted the piece to the anthology Wednesday night a few hours before the deadline. I’m still worried that the lady in charge will contact me and say, “No, it’s crap.”

She Said She’s Gay…
Progress Update

I’ve been in the same heterosexual relationship for longer than I care to share with the class. My own spot in the alphabet soup sometimes get’s muddled. People seem to forget that I choose a person, not a gender.

What’s a deadline?

What’s a deadline?
Progress Update

I’m almost at 10 thousand words in my story. It has to be at least 15 thousand, but I can’t fit the rest into 5 thousand words. Here’s to writing a longer story than anticipated.

My goal of getting lots of writing complete this week failed. I did learn some things about the manuscript I’m trying to push out though.
1. I started at the wrong place…

Writing like the Wind

Writing like the Wind
Progress Update

Is is possible for me to push out a novella in a month? Honestly, I don’t know. I signed up to be a part of an anthology that comes out in February 2022 (because I obviously don’t understand time management). I have a basic plot. I have characters with names. I have settings. Though, I haven’t started writing. It’s due to the anthology group mid December.

I interviewed the main character of The Witch’s Complement, Jesi Osman. If you have more questions for her, please let me know in the comments.  Me: So Jesi, we’re here for everyone to get to know a little more about you. Are you ready? Jesi: Yes, I am ready.

Let’s Talk Memes

Let’s Talk Memes
Personal

No matter how you say the word, we all see memes every day on social media. Of course, if you don’t use social media, you might be questioning what I’m talking about. Per Merriam-Webster, a meme is “an amusing or interesting item (such as a captioned picture or video) or genre of items that is … Read More “Let’s Talk Memes” »

Small Achievements: Coming Back After a Delay

Personal

Ah, there is nothing like a little strep throat to set you back a week. Or is that a week and a half? I am not quite sure. All I know is I slept the last two weekends away. My EE gave me the bacterial infection and my 5-year-old escaped the entire sickness. We’ve watched … Read More “Small Achievements: Coming Back After a Delay” »

A Writing Prompt: Underneath the Floorboards

Posted on January 28, 2020January 28, 2020 By Lucille Yates 1 Comment on A Writing Prompt: Underneath the Floorboards
Writing Prompt

Timothy was not in a hurry. He was never in a hurry. He made it his life’s mission to never rush to do anything. This was not the impression others had of him. His clothes were always clean and pressed. Lunch was never forgotten at home. Timothy was predictable. Timothy is always early. Until the day he wasn’t.

Jane was Timothy’s closest friend and co-worker. In the office, they sat side by side and were perpetual teammates on projects. And Tuesday, Timothy was late.

Self-Care and Goals

Encouragement, Personal

When you fall behind, just pick up where you dropped off. Don’t kick yourself. Sometimes we need a level of self-care that takes us away from our plans, but that doesn’t mean it has to derail us for the long term.
