Live Writing is an experiment that will allow people to experience the writing of a first draft of a novel as it is being created.
I am writing a follow-up to my short story Addison Dark live on this blog!
It will be a full length novel that is intended to be the first in a multi-book series.
Updates, info, and teasers will be posted Monday through Friday each week, culminating in a posting of my week’s worth of writing. Check out the Recently Written section at the end of every week to enjoy a taste of fresh, raw, and uneditted first draft deliciousness over the weekend!
Feedback will be especially important to make sure the experience is as easy and enjoyable to read as possible. So comment like crazy and be sure to tell your family & friends.
Bookmark this blog or subsribe to the rss feed for updates. You can also Like the Addison Dark facebook page, follow me on Twitter @livewriting. or email me at timm.livewriting@gmail.com.
Can’t wait to hear what you think!

Welcome to the Live Writing experiment!
Read Weekly.
Right here on this blog about my writing. Can you guess what might be in the Recently Written section?

Desired Results.
1. To make writing a part of every weekday, no matter how little, so that I can fit writing around a busy schedule.
2. To gain a dedicated readership and fanbase.
3. To gain attention from agents and publishers.

As we pass what is likely the halfway mark in the first draft of Addison Dark, I’m changing the way you can read along.
Again? Really? Why?
I continue to try and have the most approachable and readable experience for the widest audience possible. I’m also becoming more invested in the characters and the world they inhabit and want to protect them from… shall we say… fiction poachers? My experimenting with facebook has fragmented my audience, and I’d like you all to share this experience together. Lots of other little reasons, but those are the heavy hitters.
My brother, founder and CEO of @Holmade_Games will appreciate the following.
Live Writing version 3.0 change log:
new sections added – The Story So Far, Recently Written

Every time I watch Stardust by Neil Gaiman, I think THAT’s the kind of story I WANT to write! So I finally did a critical analysis of it and it was SUCH an interesting experience. Caught things I hadn’t in my upteen previous viewings. Some great take aways. Feels like I have a recipe. Now to ensure I have the proper ingredients! But SO important to cook-to-taste, not blindly follow the recipe!

Having a little rest from work. A two week long staycation, with a few things to dabble with at home.
Over the next two weeks, writing will be intermittent.
I’ll be busy in other facets of the writing process. Sketching out the next few large story paths and set pieces. I’ll also be making a few changes to the blog and how the social media channels will be used to better support the Live Writing Experiment.
Stay tuned. There’s so much yet to come!
Read me live,
Timm
