I took half a day off from work today so I could try to get some writing stuff done. I need to learn more about marketing books, since most publishers expect you to have a plan, or at least an idea, of what you will need to do to promote your book.

Did nothing on Red. Worked some on a contemporary young adult fiction piece about reincarnation, and a bit on a victorian story about a vampire and the young man who has to hunt him.

I even looked at book 2 of my Dragons trilogy.

I definitely have writing ADHD. I wonder if there is a diagnosis for that? Will my medical insurance cover it? Probably not.

I don't think I'm ready to revise Dragons yet. I do think it will need a lot of work when I get to it though. I couldn't even read through the first chapter. Still too fresh in my head.

Oh, and I started on a short story, called "The Tedinator" that I am writing in honor of my grandfather, who passed away in April. I wrote a poem in honor of my grandmother when she passed away; that was before my daughter was born. I was trying to write a poem for my grandfather, too. But it wasn't working for me. So. the story evolved. An old motorcycle in need of restoration is the center of it. May post it here when I am finally happy with it.

Maybe I should rename my blog to "In pursuit of finishing a piece of writing..."
