It’s been a while since I last posted here. Life has been traumatic and I’ve been recovering, and now I’m ready to hit the words again.

I am continuing to write my fantasy novel, working title Winter Raven, and hoping to get a lot of words down during April, using Camp NaNoWriMo as an accountability tool and a way to give and receive support as I go.

This time around, I’m plotting and planning instead of my usual pantsing – flying by the seat of my pants – method. I’ve even bought post-it notes, highlighter pens and markers in matching sets of colours to keep track of my cast of characters.

I want a desk just for planning and writing my book, so I can spread out my notes and planning pages without having to pack them up every time I want to write. My bedroom needs to be completely moved around so I can use what I’ve already got to serve the purpose.

It’s good to be back. Thanks for reading. x Rachel
