One Word

Hi everyone! I've posted a new article over on Medium I would love for you to check out!

I talk about the One Word movement, where you choose one word to carry with you through the year, instead of making those pesky new year's resolutions. It's a pretty interesting concept. I  hope you enjoy!

Welcome!

Well, I've done it. I've put it out to the universe that I'm writing a novel, so I guess I better put myself in gear. The intent of this blog is to talk about, well, most anything. While I'm writing, I intend to look for copy editing work (online), so I will post about things like that, possibly do some freelance writing if I can find it, talk about how my writing is going, etc. If you're here, say something, even if it's just hello. I welcome any and all to my blog. You can also find me on Facebook, my page is Author Page: Chloe Cuthbert. Feel free to give it a like and take a look around.

Finding my way

I recommend it, at least for this book. The art is quite beautiful, and not at all intrusive while reading. If you go to Amazon ...

NaNoWriMo

NaNoWriMo begins today, and as much as I have been looking forward to participating for the first time, I have to admit, I am very nervous! It is a bit overwhelming to start thinking that in less than 30 days, I will need to have 50,000 words written. That is pretty funny for anyone who knows me, because I probably "say" 50,000 words in 2 days!! At least my husband will agree with that :) I am working on two different pieces at this point; a novella for a Kindle World, and a completely different novel for NaNoWriMo. The Kindle World novella is set in author Steven Konkoly's Perseid Collapse world and will be of the same genre, essentially, with a little romance thrown in for good measure. In order to understand what is going on in the novella, and to know the characters, you would need to read the Perseid Collapse series. From November 16-20, Mr. Konkoly is offering the prequel, The Jakarta Pandemic, for .99 on Amazon, and is considering putting the rest of the series o...
