'Tis the time of the 'tobers! This year I'm once more doing Clocktober, where I commit to writing for a given amount of time each day. This year I'm doing 30 min across the board & focusing solely on Hunger. #HungerStory #turtlewriter #writingchallenge #writesky #ocsky #tober
Hunger is my WIP urban fantasy/paranormal thriller:

Red's a monster hunter waiting tables at a diner. Rand's a regular, charming & well-loved by staff. Her instincts say he's a monster, but she needs proof. So when he unexpectedly asks her out she grabs the chance to go digging. #HungerStory #ocsky

Didn't manage any yesterday, but did *THREE* the day before, so I'm still on track!

For accountability's sake I thought it would be fun to share the place-holder titles (barring spoilers) of the scenes/synopses as I finish them.

I discovered many I hadn't done yet! I know what happens in them, they're in my head, but if it's not written it's not safe. So for my challenge I want to finish synopses & notes for every unwritten scene in BK1. If I do 1-2 every day, I can make it in time for the anniversary 😁🎊

End of this month will be 10 yrs from the day I first put pen to paper (or fingers to keys) on my story Hunger. I wanted to do something special to mark the occasion, but any celebration I thought of felt 🫠 So what does that leave? #HungerStory #amwriting #sff #writingcommunity #turtlewriter #wip

Thank you for your kind words. ♥️ I am a #TurtleWriter (I wonder if this hashtag made it here from Twitter (RIP)?)

Hello,
I’m not a speed writer.
In fact I’m slow.
I have never “won” NANoWriMo or NaNo camp.
Call me a turtlewriter.
Anyone else out there a slow writer?
There was a group on Twitter but I’m not on there anymore.
Please use the tag so I can find you.

When Facebook memories reminds you you were working on the (sort of) first draft of this a year ago, too. I’m at least at the 74% mark now.
Sigh. #turtlewriter
