The Fairy Thorn

Adventure 203 ~ Survive Six Hours Of Grammar

/ intrepidjane

Gosh. Editing is a tougher than I thought 😛 . Today’s adventure has been all about editing my book and this round of editing has been completely grammar-focused. I am actually surprised that I got out alive. Grammar and bone-ghosts seem to have a lot in common 😛 .

The editing is still not complete and I’m heading into my fourth and (fingers crossed) final cycle tomorrow. What makes me giggle (well, okay , I’ll admit it. I’m too grammar-garotted to giggle just now) is that the Faerie Thorn story actually took me fourteen hours to write. Guess how long the editing has taken?……….

I am just going outside and may be some time.

MillayblogIt’s all getting a bit exciting now! Having completed  a first full editorial run- through of my long-short story [The Faerie Thorn],  today I start to find out a little bit more about how to go about getting my story published.

You can find the book I mention in today’s video here.

Adventure 197 ~ Write A Faerie Story [7]

/ intrepidjane

Well, I made it! Today I write and narrate the final part of my original faerie story, The Faerie Thorn. In this episode, you get to find out what happened to Man Donaghy’s good Big People looks, you learn what a borrow-body is, and some of you may cry at a certain point (I did!)

Everything I have shared with you is completely unedited and so now the adventure that lies ahead is an editing one!

Adventure 196 ~ Write A Faerie Story [6]

/ intrepidjane

Well, it turns out that the Faerie Thorn folk have a little more story up their sleeves than I thought and so today is not the last part of the story!

Here’s me narrating what I’ve just written (it’s hot off the press and unedited, as usual). I wonder if you expected the trolls to take what they did from Man Donaghy? I wonder if you’ve worked out what the trolls are going to do with the thing they have taken from him? I wonder if you’re curious to know how successful the trolls were in getting rid of  New Wife Donaghy?……

Adventure 189 ~ Write A Faerie Story [1]

/ intrepidjane

elfAfter I interviewed Jackie yesterday, she asked me what my next adventure would be. I couldn’t answer her as I don’t have an adventure plan ~ I just wait for the next impulse to arrive! This morning I woke up with the coat-tails of a faerie story to hang on to. I could say that I have no idea where it came from….
