The birthing of a serious Renee Glass. Or Robin Glass. (Those are my pen names. :))

So after a good hour of surfing the internet, doing some productive things and some not so productive, I am settling down to a good two hours of writing.


I've realized a couple things.

First, I have more discipline than I thought I did.  I have no reason to not immerse myself in a daily writing habit.

Second, I want to be a novelist MUCH more than a freelance writer.  I want to tell stories, or share personal stories in essays (which falls into a part of freelancing, true).  So it's time to focus 95% of my writing energy on my novel.  I have about 40,000 words, about a third through.  This is with an uber-inconsistent writing schedule.  If I could develop a true daily writing habit that lasted more than a week or two.... I would have this draft busted out in a matter of months.  I could have the draft before the wedding even.

I was waiting till after the wedding to really concentrate on a routine, a schedule.  But why wait?  With my writing, it's time right now for a serious commitment.

And it begins. :) Yay.

So my first published and paid writing came out this Wednesday, in The Boise Weekly! It was uber exciting, although a bit dampened by a little typo or something that messed with a sentence and made it a bit confusing. :) ("found at herself a level of inspiration" or something odd like that) 

Otherwise, it was a decent yay moment.

Something nice.

What can be one of the most encouraging moments in a writer's life?  Well, for me, being more interested in staying in my own world I'm creating than enmeshing myself in another author's world, a book.  That really shows me that I'm reaching a point in my novel where things are coming together, fleshing out, coming into their own.  


And that's all I wanted to say.  Pictures of more food made to come.
