Summary: This was technically a seven-day writing week, though it didn’t feel like I did an awful lot – either of paid work or my own projects. Must resurrect a decent work ethic next week, as I suddenly have quite a lot on!   Monday: I wrote a review of a book I finished over […]

Summary: My work ethic has definitely taken a nose-dive again, despite external accountability strategies – must try harder!   Monday: I edited the next chapter of the spiritual book and also went through a submission package for a women’s fiction novel in detail. Dave and I also looked at extracts from another book to analyse […]

Summary: A heavy cold pretty much wiped out the second half of this week (hurrah for freelance flexibility taking the pressure of being ill) but Writing Club was much better this week and I got my novel back in my head in good time for starting Revision Club next week. Yay for clubs!   Tuesday: […]

Summary: A bit up and down this week with both paid work and my own writing – but I got re-motivated in the end.   Monday: I had a huge list of stuff to get through today! I started with a long-delayed paid editing project that finally came back to me over the weekend – […]

Summary: I slacked off a bit this week – so future me is going to be annoyed with me next week! Still, I got a certain amount one and it’s important to take breaks!   Tuesday: Back to work after a long weekend off! I edited a chunk of the supernatural thriller and wrote reviews […]

Summary: Not a massively productive week this week, but that’s okay. I still got all the important things done! Plans to revitalise a better work ethic next week…   Monday: I cracked on with editing the prison memoir and also started editing a book from a new client – a horror thriller.   Tuesday: I […]

Summary: This was a short work week, since we went for a long weekend in Wales – which was awesome! I still got a decent amount of both paid and project work done, though.   Monday: I had a very good morning – I edited a whole romance novella for a repeat client, and forged […]

Summary: Some good progress made this week, both in terms of paid work and my own projects – but I also took some time just to chill, which was nice.   Monday: I spent the morning on paid client work – website stuff, prison memoir, paranormal detective novel. In the afternoon, I did some more […]

Summary: I’ve somehow managed another seven-day writing week! And my brain is really running away with the idea for my next novel, even though I’m not supposed to be starting work on it until next year…   Monday: I sat at my desk and did paid client work all morning – additions to a self-help […]

Sunday: A bit of a lazy week on the paid editing front, but that’s okay. More work completed on the next novel than anticipated, but perhaps not as much on other writing projects as expected.   Monday: The subconscious crew came up with some really interesting ideas for the protagonist viewpoint, presentation and relationships for […]
