1/11/10 Weekly Writing Update

Mon, 18 Jan 2010 04:29:37 +0000

I got a little off track this week with trying to make decisions about what I want to work on, but I’m back on track. The bad news is that I didn’t accomplish as much on one project as I would have if I’d actually focused. BUT on the upside, I plotted my first fantasy romance novel, and a new short story. It’s a ménage à trois, so it should be interesting. I’ve decided that the weekends will be for writing this story, unless I get crazy inspired (kind of like I am right now) and I have to work on it. I didn’t write at all on Monday, because I’m bad.

1/10/10 – Worked on the fantasy novel: 501 words
1/12/10 – Fantasy novel: 1,212 words
1/13/10 – Plotted the Fantasy novel and wrote 573 words on it.
1/14/10 – Fantasy Novel: 217 words
1/15/10 – Archer’s Story: 1,143 words
1/16/10 – Plotted the menage story and wrote 806 words on it.
1/17/10 – And today, so far, I’ve gotten 843 words on the menage story.

I’m not going to do final totals for each of these, because I’m lazy and don’t feel like looking it up.

Gees, I need to come up with some titles for all these WIPs. *Sob* And my day planner just sliced my finger open. But I guess that’s what happens when you get to close to something. It just has to push you away. I was too clingy.

1/3/09 Weekly Writing Update

Sat, 09 Jan 2010 22:56:45 +0000

Time to get all updatey. I wrote everyday this week. Yesterday I did character charts and some outlining for my fantasy novel, which I guess technically doesn’t count. But I plan to start working on it, so that kind of stuff has to get done. I wrote a little on the free read I’m going to put on this site. Soon I might be working on a menage short story, so tonight I plan to do character charts and outlining for that, or I might finish up the fantasy novel planning.

Word Counts
1/3/10 – 132
1/4/10 – 977
1/5/10 – 41 – Worked on Free Read
1/6/10 – 326
1/7/09 – 477
1/8/09 – Fantasy Novel character charts

A total of 1,953. The whole story is 12,608. Definitely not as productive as last week, but I accomplished something everyday.

12/28/09 Writing Update

Sun, 03 Jan 2010 03:30:16 +0000

12/28/09 – 172
12/29/09 – 0
12/30/09 – 1,491
12/31/09 – 876
1/1/10 – 1,533
1/2/10 – 659
Weekly total – 4,729
Total – 10,687

Woo, I wrote almost everyday this week. In addition to actual words on Archer’s story, I also did more on the outline. I’m not sure how the story ends though, because it could end several ways. I guess I’ll have to do a little more writing on it before I decide which one fits best. I’m in love with this story. Its going to end up having some interesting things in it, and I’ve got a lot of world building going on in it.

The one thing I didn’t get to do this week was work on my free read. For those of you who have read Fear of Darkness, I’m going to be writing a short free read for Natalya and Vahe to add to the content of this website.

I also did a lot of character profiles this week, and two interviews, so if you want to learn more about the characters and see pictures check out the ‘Shapeshifters’ and ‘The Watchers’ tabs on this website.

Until next week.
