Keep on moving

One or two of you may have noticed updates on my site. I have added a synopsis of my second novel in progress, ‘Holding On’.  I had been thinking about this story for some time now, whilst reworking my earlier novel, 'The Vulnerables' and based on advice given to me by an agent, I have put 'The Vulnerables' to simmer and started putting pen to paper to produce what I hope will be, a good first draft of 'Holding on'. October 2014 is the deadline I have given myself for completing this draft. Let's see if I can achieve it.

You may have also noticed that in January this year, I had two pieces of flash fiction, ‘The Bump' and 'Cuts' make runners-up in a 'Darker Times' (January 2014) flash fiction competition.  Both stories have been published on the Darker Times Publishing website: http://www.darkertimes.co.uk/past-winners.aspx# and also in ‘Darker Times Collection’, Volume two available from Amazon.

How do I keep going, I sometimes stop and ask myself; working on two novels, squeezing out small pieces and polishing others up for publication.

‘Sa sè moi?’ (Kwéyòl  for, ‘Is that me?’)

Passion that’s what keeps me moving, even through ‘the dark times’, my passion for writing keeps me inspired, motivated and productive.

What keeps you going? Want to share?
