Lérowen's Challenge - Day 9 (Current Project)


Yes, sorry, I skipped Day 8 because it was "a video about writing" and I knew of absolutely none.  (And since I didn't feel like searching for any, I guess I kind of failed the challenge... :))

Still fun.  Okay, ready for Day 9?

Day 9: What is your current writing project?

Good question.  With the help of some encouraging friends, I just finished fighting back a bout of writer's block.  This was full-blown writer's block, too, friends.

But now, I'm back to working on Seaspear.  I finished the first draft late May, but that is only the beginning.  I had to rewrite and condense most of the beginning, and now I'm working on the middle. Here's the elevator pitch (a description of my story in 30 words or less.)



When a sailor girl meets a nobleman masquerading as a pirate, she is forced into a search for a legendary magic spear that will determine the future of her country.








Hearts Unbroken, the team story Whisper and I are writing, is kind of at a standstill.  She just got a horse, and I'm too lazy to bug her to writer her chapter, so, um...so much for finishing that up this summer.  I don't have a pitch for that right now, but I'll tell you that it involves three boys, three girls, and one quest.

You can check the current status of all my writing projects on my sidebar.  I do update it.
