Tonight I got some ideas for the second story in the Shadow World series so I wrote them down.
I’ve had that story in mind for a while but I want to finish at least the first before getting seriously into it.
As I was jotting down those ideas – about the characters and the main plot- I got thinking about the sort of stories I write…

Flying
Tonight I feel my wings again
Tonight I know I can fly again
The moon is full, let me reach it.
Who said wolves couldn’t fly?
My mind is already gone,
Let my body join it high.
Soaring over the land,
Leaving the pain behind.
I wish you were here to fly with me
But I lost you lives ago.
I haven’t stopped looking
But my search hasn’t been lucky yet.
Every full moon,
My wings open again.
I fly alone but really
I just hope you’ll join me.
Whoever said angels weren’t real
Hasn’t met us yet.
One day we’ll join again
And the world will wake up.
Until then, I fly alone under the moon.

As I mentioned here I was inspired by The Four Part Land to work on my magical system.
Here’s what I did -don’t worry if it doesn’t make much sense to you even after reading the initial articles, it should do once you read the stories (implying I’ll finish them… 😉 )

I did 20 minutes of writing just now on “His Warrior”.
I think I’m finally getting back into creating, which means the muse is back from their break.
Now all I need to do is making more time for it… I’ll get there, eventually.
I just did my 30 minutes without any problem and edited a scene. Finally. Let’s hope this keeps up.
I’m still getting my head around my schedule, hence my total lack of ROW commenting and I apologize. Work has been picking up so I’ve been busy on that front, and then there’s life as well, kidnapping me from time to time…
A little paradox this time: although I did 1 hour of edits on Thursday, I’m going to take my goal down to minimum 30 minutes at some point before each check-in.
I have two reasons: the first is that I have too much on at the same time at the moment.
The second is that I am struggling to get back into the story and develop/rewrite the scenes that need it.
The week long break before the new round didn’t help it seems…
So….
I failed at my goal, I only managed to do 20 minutes today before connecting again on the net to ask for something and got stuck on it.
I’ve been making a weekly schedule for everything I have to do (work, writing, my Druidic course, housework…) but I’m still getting into it so it didn’t fully work this time.
However, I’m getting the background sorted out in a clearer way. I did the magic system last night, with help from The Four Part Land’s blog posts on it.
Next will be the different races, I want to develop what I have already done.
Here we go again, starting on the 4th of April!
This round my goal will be again 1 hour before each check-in.
However, this time I am working on two WIPs:
1. “Coming Out” is in the editing stages and, thanks to two wonderful beta readers, I now have a lot of work to do to make it “perfect”.
2. “His Warrior” is in first draft and I want to finish it.
We did it ROWers!
Looking back on this challenge, I am so happy to have participated. It gave me motivation and support; I managed to fully write out WIP 1 and I have started WIP 2. I’ve met great writers along the way too.

Written on the 19th/12/2008 about my experience of having “pervasive development disorder – not over-specified”, a form of “autism spectrum disorder”.
