I did something I've never accomplished before. I wrote over 10,000 words for my Nanowrimo novel. It didn't even feel like a struggle until around 11 last night when my eyes and hands were getting weary. By that time, I was s...[Read Full Post] Thu, 26 Nov 2009 12:17:45 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/677728 Any writer who buzzes around the romance world has already heard of the recent issue between Harlequin and Romance Writer's Association.

But Abe didn't want his goodbye, which could be his final goodbye, to be at the train depot. He wanted it at home, on their farm, where he should be helping wit...[Read Full Post] Tue, 03 Nov 2009 23:20:18 EST http://www.Writing.Com/main/books/entry_id/674646 Here's the first stop of my blog tour for anyone who wants to come in and say hello: [Link: 'http://judahraine.com/romancewriteup/?p=673&cpage=1#comment-1063'] Today is an introduction to my work in general and details about what you can win for taking the time to read and comment.
