WORDS...WORDS! GIVE ME WORDS!

Yes! I love when one link leads to another link which leads to not wriitng your nano novel...I mean which leads to a super cool link which I am now in love with.The Bookshelf Muse

Now I don't have to rely on my hormonally challenged brain. Now, instead of he was angry, I can write: his face reddened as his jaw clenched, till I thought he might crack every tooth in his head. Ha!

I know eventually I would be able to think of much more clever ways of saying things, yet, when I'm in the clutch and my entire psyche is overwhelmed with the fact that I'm actually writing AND creating AND staying in my chair. I can't depend on my subconscious to think of anything more detailed than : she hated him. Which is why The Bookshelf Muse is now part of my double secret way of nanoing. Yay!

  1. Love the Bookshelf Muse! And for that reason. When my words don't flow over some phrase I'm working on, I * the sucker and visit the muse when I get to my revisions! So much simpler than full-stop, rewind. Oh, I'm dating myself!

  2. You know, I'm pretty sure I'll do the same, I can't stop for the perfect word or turn of phrase -- but I can use my highlighting tab.

    I'm there with you on the full-stop, rewind dating yourself thing!
