Words words words
Which implies more than there actually was. I'm settling for two pages tonight. Enough to kick my word count up to the next number and still give me some time to veg on the couch a bit. Progress - Lily New pages - Two Intriguing things - When in doubt, skip ahead to...
Filling the well
I don't get to do a lot of non-writing related travel due to time and budget constraints. But this weekend I zoomed off to Adelaide (the capital of South Australia for the non-Aussies) to visit my brother and sister in law and the furry niece dog. It was a nicely laid...
Open for business
Every writer has themes and issues and things that attract them to the ideas they have. Ways they execute those ideas. With my paranormal/urban fantasy hat on, I'm finding that I'm drawn to open worlds far more than closed ones. (An open world, for my purposes being...
Just another
Just another manic Monday as the song goes. Day job sort of went by in a blur though stuff got done so that was good. Came home with a weird urge to bake bread which is something I'd never usually attempt on a work night as my brain tends to think it takes forever....
Still moving
So I realised yesterday that I was a bit stuck on Witch so I'm going with the talking book for now. Still aiming for four pages a day, six days a week. Though I'm going away this weekend, so I might just give myself a few days off for that. Not much else news around...
TGIF
Today was a good writing day, all grey and cold and gloomy outside. But between writing and housework, there's not exactly a lot of scintillating news to report. Progress - Witch 2 New pages - 4 plus 1 yesterday. Plus about 8 today on the other book. I think at some...
Checking in
Reporting in. I did have a deep thought about writing open vs closed worlds but I think I will wait until another time when I have brain power to formulate my thoughts with something resembling coherence. Progress - Witch 2 New pages - 5 pages Intriguing things -...
Fifty!
Woohoo! I've hit fifty pages! Go me. And that's about the only intelligent comment I can come up with right now. Progress - Witch 2 New pages - 6 pages Intriguing things - Not much Annoyances - The matchsticks required to prop my eyes open? Linear/non-linear - non....
Mama
Happy Mother's Day to all the mum's out there (especially mine but I'm biased). I didn't actually get my four pages today, reached a bit where I need to figure some stuff out and once I got back from Mother's Day lunch, my brain decided it had had enough for the week....
Out of order
I've talked before about the fact that I'm generally a pantser and a little bit about the fact that I can write out of order (aka when I'm stuck on a scene the easiest remedy for me is generally to jump ahead to the next part I "know" in the book). When it comes to...
