Row80 Jan 4th

Its the beginning of the year and the beginning of another Row challenge, I have a lot of ideas that I'm playing with and I would like to begin working one of them in particular, I have actually started researching the setting for the story. I really do enjoy the research part of writing, but enough of that.
Here are my goals:
Write everyday- and not focus on word count.

Finish up Mishap & Retribution, I am making good progress and I would like to send it to my editor by the end of the month. I usually work with her on it before sending it to my beta readers for their feedback.

I also need to make time for my kung fu training and support my classmates, they will be in the Golden Dragon Parade in China Town and I will of course post pictures. I have a video somewhere of a previous parade, I will have to post it so you can see how amazing it is.

    Writing every day is such a great goal! I wish you well with that. It's great that you have give and take with your editor. Sounds like a great relationship.

    Good luck!

    I like your goal of just writing every day. Sometimes the word count is daunting. But just writing anything gets you there!

Updates!

It's been much too long since my last post, and I thought I would share what's new and what I'm working on. First off I've adopted a baby elephant! Well sort of, I became aware of an elephant rescue; The David Sheldrick Wildlife Trust, this is a wonderful cause that rescues baby elephants who have lost their mothers because of poachers. I've also signed up for several photography classes, learning what the camera functions are and what they do has been a challenge, and I can now say that I know what Fstops, Shutter Speeds and ISO's are and what they do and why AUTO is your friendemy. Portraits are my main focus, in photography as the play of shadow and light can create such drama and fine details. Here is a portrait I took, and yes, that's my niece Grace, you'll recognize her from the covers on The Legacy Trilogy. As for my writing, I'm currently working on book three of the New Orleans Mysteries series and book five in my Zombie Novella ser
