Day 3,573: Blackmail

Day 3,573: Blackmail

It’s late so making this a quick one folks. Finished up a busy work week with a much more chill day. Didn’t do any writing, but I have the weekend to get that shit done. A damn hurricane is coming. Sunday. Yikes. We watched Hitch’s first “talkie” and…it was a giant...

Day 3,572: Ample

Day 3,572: Ample

Yo. I’ve done it. 20 pages written for two straight days. That’s three out of my four writing days this week, and the one day I didn’t hit my goal, I wrote 15 pages that day. Busy work day. I. Am. FRIED. Absolutely fried. Crispy. Delirious. Totally zonked. I have a...

Day 3,571: whew

Day 3,571: whew

It’s a long, looonngggg day writing 20 pages, man. Takes it out of me. Which, I suppose is to say that I’m still getting used to it. It’s five hours of work. A solid five so as not to be rushing. If I try to rush, try to push, I start forcing things and that takes me...

Day 3,570: Rally

Day 3,570: Rally

I rallied. Just at the end. Didn’t quite hit my page goal, but I got within an hour or so of it. It’s been a busy couple weeks, y’all. Good lord. But somehow, I’m a third of the way through my story and speeding up. I’ve persevered. 50,000 words, 200 pages, and...

Day 3,569: Bam

Day 3,569: Bam

Wooo weee. I was THIS close to missing my page target for the day, but I pulled out a clutch writing session here at the very end to juuuust hit it. A fun section to write, I just went through, too. Lots of WORDS, because it was action and not dialogue, but a fun one....

Day 3,568: The DL

Day 3,568: The DL

Going to be bed on time! I am short, yet again, on reading through my manuscript BUT…I did more this week than last. That’s progress, and I’ll take it. Plus, I’m only 3-ish hours away from catching all the way up. I can do it! Need to have a solid week this week, so…I...

Day 3,566: Miss Her

Day 3,566: Miss Her

Joy’s over at KBear and Arg’s tonight because I podcasted with Josh and didn’t want to leave her alone at home for that long. Coops I knew would be fine. He can handle six hours like a champ. And he did. Sweet boy. He’s having his whimzee right now. Wiped. Loooonngggg...

Day 3,565: By Half

Day 3,565: By Half

Bit of a rough week on the writing front…but NOT A DISASTER. Minor miracle there, given how busy work kept me. Another suuuuuper fast turnaround dropped on me late today. Here’s the thing, though, about when that happens: I kinda get to be the hero, you know? I’m the...

Day 3,564: Sleep Data

Day 3,564: Sleep Data

Twenty pages today. Woo! Wiped. What’s amazing, though is that I was wiped all day, and I still got my work done and my pages. I’m on a roll, for real though. The only thing I will say about how I currently construct stories is this: my Act 1’s don’t need to be so...
