I drank tea after 9 PM last night and couldn't get t sleep until 3 AM. Don't ask how I filled in the time...
Short Stories
I posted a short story over on WordPress (lisacoopervista.wordpress.com) just as a sample of what will be in the collection "Stranger Than Fiction". For those who looked at "Foot Fetish", you might wonder if it is true or not. Well yes and no. My friend's ex-husband did dress in her clothes and wear her shoes to make out with other men. I made up the murder part just to dis him because he was such a jerk and lied to her repeatedly about what he was doing.
Novel
I'm asking my readers to hold me accountable for my science fiction novel's first draft due date deadline of August 7th 2015. ACT 1 is about 2/3 complete with 11,550 words so far. Act two is in detailed sketch form (This is what I call: between outline and fully written chapters) with about 6100 words.
I don't write in chronological order, I write as the characters speak inside my head. Dialogue comes first, then I go back and flesh out each scene. Fortunately they are finding their voices and telling me their stories, finally. Yes it will be erotic but it will also be sci-fi, though I'm trying to keep this reined in. The average reader won't know what a barycenter is and just won't care about a space station's 3 km mooring tower...
Weight Loss
Weight is still hovering around 140 lbs, but
it looks like muscle is building up, which is what I want. I loose weight
from the top down; the face looks leaner, Noogleberry is protecting the
rack and the abdomen is beginning to lean up a little. My butt is still
to big for my favorite dresses...
Yes I did start
jogging, all the way to the corner... and back. I can't think of
anything more boring than jogging except maybe watching the grass grow.
Love Lisa
