Weeknotes – S04E34 – Back In The Groove

Summary: Three good writing sessions on my dedicated writing days, so back into a more regular groove for writing.

Weeknotes – S04E31 – Remembering What Works

Summary: I feel like I’ve come up with a better structure for my writing week and that I’ve settled back into a better routine again. I should remember the lesson that trying to write every day really doesn’t work for me and actually ends up being very counter-productive.   Monday: My brain had been ticking […]

Weeknotes – S04E30 – Taking the Weekend Off

I also really enjoyed working […]
