Everything I Ever Needed to Know about Writing, I learned from The Mummy
 
Set Your Own Yardsticks
 
"Some of us need deadlines. Write or you're axed from the group. Sure, you can join later, when a new group forms...when life is more settled. But guess what---life is never "settled", it is always interferring. So you have to grasp every chance you can to do the thing you love the most, writing."

"Here's your chance to write every day. To develop the habit and discipline of writing daily. If you don't, you're booted off.

RULES: You must upload fifteen NEW pages of your manuscript weekly (standard manuscript format - double spaced - courier - one inch margins). NO REWRITING on this link, just finish the durn book, fifteen pages at a time!

Those who do not post every week by Midnight Sunday, CST, will be deleted from the group. If you wish to join, sign up, you will be approved for membership on the next starting date."

"My stories usually begin with a character, usually the heroine, and an idea of what her dilemma is. Or maybe it's a snatch of dialogue or I'll 'see' her as though in a movie.

From there, I start to work. I'll think about that woman a lot."
