Summary: Things were a bit disrupted this week (mostly by fun caching adventures and impromptu meals out) but I had phenomenal writing days on Friday and Saturday, so feeling great! Monday: The last couple of weeks felt hard, with perhaps too much scheduled on each ‘work’ day. The experimental new schedule didn’t work for […]

Weeknotes – S07E14 – Trying Too Hard
Summary: Tons of writing and paid editing completed this week – everything going pretty well, though perhaps edging over into a bit too much scheduled! Monday: After somehow failing to write any Darkness at all last week, I put it back at the top of the schedule today and managed to write the next […]
Weeknotes – S07E13 – New Schedule Not That Great
Summary: I tried a new schedule but it didn’t work out entirely to plan – the novel suffered but I got tons of paid work done and made good progress on the novella. Monday: I put together a whole new schedule for the next few weeks, aiming to work on four mornings instead of […]
Contrary Brain
I’ve been meaning to write this blog post for some time but haven’t got around to it until now. That’s partly because I’ve been very busy with editing work and my own writing, but also because my attitude to the planned subject matter is still shifting (so much so that I just changed the title […]
Weeknotes – S07E12 – Still Going Strong
Summary: Still going strong on the novel and novella front – here’s hoping that continues for a while, since I have firm external deadlines for both now! Lots of exciting and varied stuff happening on the paid editing front, too, so writing/editing life is good! Monday: Up and at my desk before nine, but […]
Weeknotes – S07E11 – (Almost) Full Steam Ahead
Summary: Very productive week all round, though I did try not to go overboard, so as to be able to maintain levels of activity over more than one week. Monday: I was feeling quite keen today, which was good because I had a vast amount of paid work to do after winning lots of […]
Weeknotes – S07E10 – Enforced Rest
Summary: Seven days of ‘writing’, though not necessarily that much ‘actual’ progress. Things will need to ramp up next week, though, as I have a *lot* to do. Monday: It feels like a long time since I actually managed to do a ‘proper’ work and writing day, so… After only a small amount of […]
Weeknotes – S07E09 – The Year is Moving On
Summary: A bit hit and miss on both work and writing this week – I did get some stuff done (and all progress is good progress, as Captain Bear is fond of reminding me) but it wasn’t a lot. What I did to a lot of was reading, so I also wrote lots of reviews! […]
Weeknotes – S07E08 – Lots Going On
Summary: Another seven-day ‘writing’ week. The novel is still going well and there are lots of interesting projects coming up on the paid editing front. I’m feeling a bit more enthused about things in general – so yay! Monday: Monday again! And time to eat the frog… So I wrote the next Darkness scene […]
Weeknotes – S07E07 – Still Trucking
Summary: Still trucking along with the novel, still looking at agents for the two books I’m querying, still working reasonably hard for paying clients – all progress is good progress. Monday: After not having a particularly productive week last week, I knuckled down and wrote the next Darkness scene. Then it was back to […]
