Sank ya!

I started this week - which, by the way, I got off for 'ski week' - with a goal. 1,000 words each day for the whole week, to a total of 7,000 words. On impulse, I decided to work on a story I'd thought of the last night. It went freakishly well, and I discovery wrote my way through the whole thing. Then I discovered it needed to be a full on story. Cool, right? Now I've got something to think about for the next ten years... But basically, my story, Astronym, was started with the intention to give it to my sis for her birthday. I didn't think I'd finish it four months early! I completed the first book on it's eighth day. Y'know my thousand words a day goal? It turned into a 20,000 word story - I wrote forty-five pages in about eight days.

Get a life, BriBri! But seriously, it was great that God inspired me in a way that I barely knew I was setting up a gorgeous scene. I thank Him, don't you? God is great, and I really feel like I'm growing in my relationship with him.
Oops. This is my writing blog, right. So - about my story.

I really like this story, but I've decided not to think about it for a month-ish. Then I'm going back and doing major editing stuff. At least that's my plan :D
Though I think I could probably get this published officially, what I'm doing for now is I'm self-publishing it on Lulu, then I'll order a copy and present it to my sister as her birthday present. I may take it off right after I buy that copy, then try to get it officially published, but we'll see :D I'm really excited to see what will happen in the future concerning my books, and I know I've been thinking about improving my writing a lot more than I used to. I'm kind of taking this more seriously than I used to, and I'm at the same time building up courage.

TTYL! From your loving author-to-be, Bryna Starr :)
