Thank you Devor. I did just that and it worked!

Oh I love mini golf too. I didn't expect EVERYONE else to suddenly want to play too! Last time I went was three years ago and only 4 of us out of 11 wanted to play. So we were able to get through the courses pretty quickly. I told my wife that the next vacation I take will be a writing vacation.

We did have chat, but I don't see it anymore.

I've noticed the chat is missing whenever I come in. Usually it is on the right hand lower side of my screen, but it hasn't been lately. Anyone else seeing this? It's fun to come in and chat every now and then.

I haven't had a vacation in three years so I do enjoy them when I get them. Just didn't think I'd not get any writing done.

So I was planning a week long vacation with my family and my plan was to write each day before going down for breakfast and again after we had arrived back at the hotel and my son was crashed for the night. That was the plan. Now for what really happened. Day 1 (my wife and I arrived...

You are absolutely correct. Thank you for your additions to this.

So you finished your WIP and you want to send out to a publisher to see if you get rejected or (gasp).... accepted! I did the exact same and let me tell you how it has gone. First, I want to say if you get rejection letters (I did), don't fret over them. Read them, accept them, if you...

I finished the first book and feel very fortunate as this is my first attempt at writing fantasy. I've written military fiction prior and a friend suggested I submit it to a very specific publisher. Doing some research I did and I am now looking at a contract. I have yet to sign it until my...

Thanks Chessie! I work from home (have since 2014) and up to this point I have been able to find a good balance with work, school and writing. However, since going from hourly to salary and my schedule change, I just haven't been able to find a solid balance that works. I just don't want to go...

I am up at 6am and work until either 4pm or 6pm depending on what is happening at work. By then, I'm usually exhausted and get home to make dinner, do homework and around that time it's 8-9pm. I will see about staying up until 10pm to see if I can write.

A lot of great thoughts and now I feel better for the amount of time I have spent working on the world building. Thank you to everyone!

So my shift and everything changed. I was working hourly up until this past week and then moved into salary (not bad, but hang on).... now I work 5-6 days a week 10-12 hours a day and am not getting much writing done. I try to have an hour for writing at the end of the day, but I'm finding I'm...

Gah! Why didn't I think of doing that? (note after work to do it) Thank you skip.knox!

the space on "The" is actually the font which was weird. Tried about 20 other fonts and they didn't look much better. The Author and the subtitle are the same font. I didn't want too go too high on the Author name to get it into the bleed section of the cover when it is created on a book. I...
