The Munroe Mansion Rough Draft of my Synopsis is Done!

I finished all 49 Chapters, 64,498 word count, 448 pages of my Mystery/Romance manuscript today.  I have the first draft of the Synopsis done.

Now I have to do some online research on how to set it up properly and I'm thinking, it's going to be just as much work as doing the manuscript itself.

The Synopsis is my selling tool, it actually has to be presented in a better light than my manuscript.

The fun part is reducing 49 pages into 25?

My goal was to finish The Munroe Mansion by October 31, 2009.

On November 1st, 2009, for thirty days I'll be writing a new chic lit novel called The Calamity Girl.

It's going to be about a single girl and all the lousy dates she goes on as she searches for Mr. Right.

Will she ever find Mr. Right?

Or will she just learn to be happy with her own life, become independent and wealthy.

I have a few characters in mind for this book, but not sure I'm going to go with any of them.

Some of them are actually from The Munroe Series.

I thought it would be fun to spill them into this book, because they are in a small scene in one of my books and I really don't get too involved in their life.

I could have them having a history with The Calamity Girl, then they part ways, and step into the Munroe Series.

Not sure, if that's a good idea?

I'd like to hear some feedback on that.

Halloween Fun - Fashion - Treats - Music - Adam Lambert - Nicole Wins America's Top Model Shoot

Today I decided to concentrate on Halloween, Music, Treats and Costume ideas.  I figure were all going to a party this weekend and we'll need some cool ideas about what to wear.

I found some fashion videos of sexy costumes and posted them on my Idea Girl Consulting.

I almost wish that I knew more about Fashion Designs and stuff like that.

I think I got the Fashion Bug from watching America's Top Model?

I'm rooting for Nicole to win. :)

Movie Reviews This Week - The Idea Girl Says - Idea Girl Consulting - Linda Randall

It's been awhile since I did a movie review, so I got ambitious and watched 4 movies within a 24 hour time period this week.

 I was a little late in posting them because I'm working on my Synopsis for my novel.

I didn't put all the names of the cast members down in my post because I didn't have time.  So I'm going to have to backtrack sooner or later and update the information, or just create a whole new post about it.

October has been a strange month for my blogs.  They reversed in traffic?

My daily blog is getting more hits than my Entertainment Blog?

I like it though!  That's exciting because it means someone is reading what I write, instead of just looking at my opinions on movies and music.

I somehow think that some of the traffic is because of Facebook.
You see I joined a couple of "book, author and publisher" groups on there and I'm thinking that MAYBE some of that traffic came from them?

I don't know how else to explain it? :)

I'm happy about it though, I hope my readers continue to grow and I learn to be funny, articulate and exciting to read.

Adam Lambert - Lady Gaga - New Music

I'm all excited about seeing Adam Lambert's new music video and hearing Lady Gaga's new single.  I received a message from Britney Spears that she is releasing her new single in 3 days!  It's going to be a busy month, for artists, that's for sure.

Writer's Cramp - Submit That Manuscript to a Publisher - Stress!!!

Now I just need a boost of confidence.  I finished my manuscript for my first novel called The Munroe Mansion - The Beginning.  Now I just have to do a synopsis, a query letter and find some confidence.

I'm terrified that someone's going to tell me that I suck as a writer.  Or I'll hear that i'm not experienced enough and I need to get an education or something like that.

Imagine having writers cramp for months and months, finally typing it all up, spending hundreds of hours on a project then you come to a complete standstill because of fear?

What have I got to lose other than some pride?

I know, I'm supposed to be persistent in what I do, believe in myself, and then take that first step towards my dream of being a published writer.

I've been published on the internet for many years and it didn't cause me any undue stress.

So why am I having so much trouble with this?

A feeling of panic and dread at the outcome of all this?

I feel that I'm a great writer, I just don't know if anyone else will feel the same. :)

I have posted some info about all this on The Idea Girl Says - words of wisdom for those who are more knowledgeable about this kind of thing.

Anggun Italian Pop Music - Idea Girl Consulting Wordpress

I'm reading my emails from youtube and posting the URLS that people have sent me.

Awesome Italian Pop Music Artist Anggun's website and Music.

I noticed my traffic's fallen drastically in the past few days, down to around 500 per day from 6000?

Something's not working right out in computer land. :)

But I'm still getting comments, so I think I'll reduce my video's from 5 per post to about 2.

I think the page may take too long to load for some older computers and that's why people aren't sticking around.
