Being Professional

Posted on March 13, 2013 by AmyBeth Inverness

…and first, a word from our sponsor… …no, wait… first an update for #ROW80. Give me a break, it’s 1 AM and I’m discombobulated. THIS WEEK… not so hot. I’d call it barely acceptable. But that leads into the topic … Continue reading →

A Story About Sex

Posted on March 6, 2013 by AmyBeth Inverness

First, my ROW80 update, because it is a huge pet peeve of mine to click on someone’s link-up just to find a long rambling post about lettuce or something and the ROW80 update is an afterthought at the end, or … Continue reading →

End of February

Posted on February 27, 2013 by AmyBeth Inverness

Hmm… methinks this is going to be a boring update. I’m pretty much the same as last week: Yes, meeting my goals thanks to writing more short stories, but not working on novels right now. I also need to spend … Continue reading →

Shiny!

Posted on February 12, 2013 by AmyBeth Inverness

Opportunities

Posted on February 6, 2013 by AmyBeth Inverness

I’ve gotten over last week’s rejection, and am celebrating the fact that some real-science minded friends have asked me to contribute some Sci-Fi to their magazine. I’ve also passed 6,000 followers on Google Plus, which also helps my ego. I … Continue reading →

Is January Over Already?

Feast or Famine

Posted on January 23, 2013 by AmyBeth Inverness

Last week’s trend continues. Several days of great writing, but several days of no writing as well. It didn’t even out. Hopefully I can do better after this semester hits week five… that’s when the first break is, and by … Continue reading →

All or Nothing

Posted on January 16, 2013 by AmyBeth Inverness
