Weeknotes – S03E42 – Still Lacking Focus

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 […]

Weeknotes – S03E41 – Tailing Off

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 […]

Weeknotes – S03E40 – Media Analysis for the Win!

Summary: Still largely podcast-focused, but I think that’s fine, since it’s a new and exciting project that I’m absolutely loving. Lots of reviews as well, since I read 4 books in less than 48 hours at a family reading retreat over the weekend.   Monday: I edited the second main episode of the podcast. I’m […]

Weeknotes – S03E38 – Unexpected Achievement!

Summary: An unexpectedly productive week, which became more so as the days went by. I was especially pleased by a publication acceptance I received on Friday and the fact that I wrote a whole story in one day.   Monday: I recorded another interim podcast and then edited it. My recording is already improving and […]

Weeknotes – S03E37 – Podcast-tastic!

Summary: Tons of really fun, exciting and productive work on the podcast this week. After the initial difficulties we had, we’ve now got the equipment and the expertise to produce actual episodes and I can’t wait until we’re ready to release them.   Monday: I started off by writing an entry for the current Fandom […]

Weeknotes – S03E36 – Tidbits and Reviews

Summary: Mostly little bits and pieces this week, though activities did include a fair amount of organising and planning of bigger projects.   Monday: I did some reorganising of my writing projects, to fit upcoming submission opportunities. I also typed up all the notes from my current notebook and read some more of Steal Like […]

Weeknotes – S03E35 – Slowing Down Again

Summary: My awesome motivation levels and resulting productivity have taken a nose-dive this week, But that’s okay. I’m enjoying spending more time on reviews and I’m doing a lot of editing work for other people, which makes an interesting change.   Monday: After ignoring Colours for weeks, I finally got around to editing the first […]

Weeknotes – S03E34 – Lots of Reviewing

Summary: Lots of reviews, rather than actual fiction writing, but at least I’m doing proper, in-depth reviews rather than only a couple of lines. I realised part of the problem was that I was trying to avoid spoilers, so I’ve given up on that now and find I have a lot more to say about […]

Weeknotes – S03E33 – Still On A Roll

Summary: Second seven-day writing week in a row – apparently, I’m turning into Stephen King! I completely disagree with his view that you have to write every day to be a “proper” writer, but I’ll go along with my brain’s enthusiasm if that’s what it actually wants to do!   Monday: I went to a […]
