Summary: I feel like I got some good stuff done this week, and am happy that I scheduled some proper writing sessions.   Tuesday: I edited the first chapter of a friend’s novel.   Wednesday: I reviewed a Vaults show I went to see the night before. I finished two books and wrote reviews of […]

Summary: Basically just reviews and podcasting this week.   Monday: I finished a book and wrote my review. I also did some more submissions.   Sunday: I wrote all the reviews from the reading retreat I went on earlier in the week and reviewed a film I watched earlier in the day.. I also started […]

Summary: I worked on writing projects every day this week again, but I’m calling a halt now and going back to my regular-ish scheduled sessions. Not a bad week overall, though.   Monday: I wrote my GYWO discussion post for the month.   Tuesday: I did some more submissions.   Wednesday: I wrote a review […]

Summary: Every day was a writing day again this week. I’m trying to write every day in February and it’s going pretty well so far! It’s not something I generally like to do as it quickly feels like writing is a chore, but every now and then I like to push myself.   Monday: Today, […]

Summary: I wrote (more or less) every day this week, and am feeling more positive about getting back into both longer and shorter projects again.   Monday: Final retreat day at Stickwick. I had to leave my room first thing, but the taxi wasn’t coming until 3pm, so plenty of time to get some stuff […]

Summary: I’m still keeping up with the Artisan proofing, which is the most important thing, but everything else is pretty much falling by the wayside at the moment. Except the podcast, which is still really fun. I’m on writing retreat at the end of next week, so I suspect my output will increase a bit […]

Summary: I’m not sure I’ve found my groove for 2020 yet, unless my groove is slacking off, which would be okay, at least for the moment!   Monday: I wrote reviews for the four books I read on reading retreat over the weekend.   Thursday: I met Ann in Wapping, feeling not particularly motivated. My […]

Summary: And so work begins in earnest on getting Artisan ready for publication and Colours ready for submission. In good news, I’m really enjoying rereading both of them!   Monday: I went through the whole Artisan manuscript, doing ‘find and replace’ on various things the publisher wants me to change. Perhaps dangerous, but I am […]

Summary: A slow start to 2020, but I have big plans to pick the pace up in the near future!   Saturday: I wrote a review of a new game I played over New Year. I also helped Bear with his first post of 2020.   Sunday: I wrote my first book review of 2020, […]
