Summary: This was apparently a seven-day writing week! I don’t remember being particularly productive, but I’ll take it! I did branch out into some new and interesting projects, and it felt good to try something different and less pressured/vast than the novel. Monday: After taking most of last week off from my own writing, […]

Weeknotes – S07E17 – Goofing Off Is Sometimes Valid
Summary: I finished the novella! But I didn’t write any of the novel at all this week. I punted a fair amount of paid work to later in the month, too. But I also won an exciting new paid editing project and worked out a good schedule for the next few weeks. Monday: I […]
Weeknotes – S07E15 – Having A Moment
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! […]
