  1. I'm shelving DEMONS DON'T DO LOVE for now. It's become a mishmash of nonsense because I tried to keep all the elements people like and change all the elements people didn't like - but the prob is the whole reason for writing the story got scrapped over a year ago due to a couple lines of feedback. At that point I should have reevaluated the story and whether I should write it without that key element, but I plowed on like the bullheaded TV writer I am, happy for the parts that...

      Thanks Kyle! Just to clarify, this isn't to say I'm leaving, just that I'll be gone for a little bit until I have the new story developed.

      I would still keep DDDL on the backburner and write it for yourself. I thought it was a really compelling story, and your profile materials were so interesting! Hang in there. (HUG)

  2. I am still here. Writing and tearing apart DDDL. I am my own biggest critic. Just started beat sheet #19 with another new spin on the story. As much as I beat myself up over the constant changes and wonder if I'm overdoing it, every time I look back at what I had I'm sure it wasn't good enough. So the reworking continues...

      Heather, that's the way it always is and you have more epiphany to go - the point is, you are growing into a fine writer-Michael.

  3. Hope everyone is okay on the east coast. I was without power for 40 hours - and I'm all the way up north in Toronto. Horrible hurricane.

  4. Finally have an end date on the TV gig - November 1st. That's when I'll be back to novel writing and Author Salon. Finally!

  5. Still buried in TV writing, but chipping away at the novel. Can't wait to have my new novel profile up and ready for critiques. Maybe end of October?

  6. I am still here, Author Salon, still here. Just remembering why I quit TV writing in the first place - it takes over your life, 24 hours a day. After this gig, no more until I finish the novel.

  7. Back on AS for the first time in weeks. Fingers crossed the TV work leaves me alone for a couple days so I can get my new AS profile up.

  8. Was inspired by a brilliant book I just read to write my first ever AS blog post.

  9. Still buried under work writing for this animation show. But novel rewrites are percolating in my mind and ready to go as soon as I have a day off!

  10. In the process of updating my IMDB account so if anyone wants to verify my bio it will hold up!

  11. My revised profile is finally up!

      Minus new narrative samples. Oh, crum. The rewriting is never ending...

      That's ok, we'll get you a contract for this--a promise!

  12. Been crazy busy with the TV gig. My AS profile needs major rewrites but haven't had the time. :(

  13. Profile rewrites done! Whew! Now to edit my 50 pages...

      I am just getting the hang of this.

  17. There's so much information on here that I feel like Author Salon is Writer Facebook! Must remember not to procrastinate all my time away on the internet. That said, I'm disconnecting so I can concentrate on writing. Be back tomorrow.

  19. So Author Salon doesn't like MacBooks, but I managed to get a pic up with Gravatar. I think.

  20. Okay. Finally logged into Author Connect. It will not let me load a picture. Maybe there's a bug. Figuring this stuff out and then back to writing.

      Hey there. People have had luck using the Gravitar option when it's not worked going the traditional route. Good luck!

      Thanks for the tip. I've signed up for a Gravatar account now. Waiting for the link. Seriously weird, though. I think I'm young and a computer/internet natural, but I feel like a grandma right now for not being able to make this work.
