Weekend Update

Glorious weekend! Went shopping and found some incredible deals, enjoyed the cool weather, did some writing, slept in (glorious!) and also did some reading. I just started C.S. Lewis' "The Chronicles of Narnia" right now -  finished The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe and am now on Prince Caspian. I love both the movies and the third one is coming out in December.

On the writing front, I ran into a bit of a snag, and by last evening, I was in a funk because of it. It's a rather pivotal point in the novel, and I couldn't settle for just any solution. So I decided to just say a quick prayer, leave it alone, and see what happened.

Just before I fell asleep, a possible, very workable solution hit me, and the more I think about it, the more I like it. That means more writing tonight!

How was your weekend?

  1. I think it is so funny how we sometimes come up with our best ideas before we fall asleep or wake up. Glad you did!

  3. I love it when you think over and over and over a particular problem just for that moment when a solution hits you.
    Have fun getting it down on "paper"

  6. I wasn't very well at the weekend, but I got myself comfy and did some easy stuff - proofing galleys, writing a few hundred words, planning NaNo, diary work, that kind of thing. Monday was better and I drafted a couple of fillers and submitted a story. Tuesday I'm back at work.

  7. It's far too long since I read the Narnia Cronicles.

    I'm glad you've found a solution to your plot quandry, it's always such a relief when that happens and things begin moving forward once again.

  9. I love the Chronicles of Narnia. Haven't read them for years though.

    I keep hitting snags with the wip but isn't it great when the solution comes?
