Summary: What a week! Great news about Artisan and a tremendous amount of progress on all sorts of writing projects, plus cementing new writerly friendships online. Exhausting, but very satisfying!   Monday: Off to Stickwick Manor for a four-day retreat with Urban Writers Retreats! But, before that, I got an email from the publisher I […]

Summary: Much improved in terms of actual writing done and feeling productive this week, largely due to the support and encouragement of TL;DR Writers!   Monday: After errands in Enfield in the morning, I took myself off to Good and Proper to try and get in a decent stretch of writing before meeting Dave for […]

Summary: I’ve recorded this week as seven straight writing days, but I’m not sure any of them really count as that, as I’ve only done blog posts, admin and reviews. But I’m recording it that way anyway and vowing to do better next week!   Monday: I found out I’d won a writing competition I […]

Summary: Yikes! My writing week apparently dropped off a cliff after two days…   Monday: I got an acceptance for a drabble I submitted recently for an anthology, so I submitted another one to hopefully increase my contribution to three. I also updated my script for the next main podcast episode.   Tuesday: I went […]

Summary: No writing at all until Thursday, but then I made up for it with four great writing days in a row. Dedicated writing time away from home is always good for me.   Thursday: Big plans for my writing session with Ann. I started out with a couple of reviews, then wrote my GYWO […]

Summary: Mostly a break from podcasting this week and progress on the novella. Still just in the planning stages, though, and some further concerted effort required to really get it off the ground. But all progress is good progress and the idea is definitely percolating.   Monday: Amie from the Six Month Novel Programme sent […]

Summary: Some good progress on my novella project, but then the rest of the week was eaten by the podcast again. However, now that’s live and on a regular posting schedule, I should have more time (hopefully) to dedicate to other projects.   Monday: I planned my day to maximise my writing output, heading out […]

Summary: Still not a huge amount of progress on the writing front, despite some scheduled sessions with other people. I’m really struggling to focus for long periods at the moment.   Monday: I watched a film and wrote notes both for a fanfiction challenge and the podcast. I then wrote my fanfiction for the Space […]

Summary: Not a lot of writing this week, despite a resolution to do more focused sessions. Ah well, there’s always next week!   Monday: I was due to meet Geena at Picturehouse Central at 1pm so I went in early with the intention of really getting on with tons of writing stuff that’s been languishing […]
