Summary: Lots of minor progress on a variety of both big and small projects. Still a bit scattered, but I’m pleased I’m maintaining my daily writing habit.   Monday: Back to The Turk’s Head in Wapping for a session with Ann today, which evoked memories of sitting outside in the sun all last summer. I […]

Summary:   Still writing every day so far, and it’s not feeling like too much of a chore. And a couple of projects are now at the stage when I need to really launch into the meat of the work.   Monday:   I started with Day Three of Write With One Story 2019, then […]

Summary:   Another seven-day writing week, with lots of work on little habit-forming activities, but also some progress on bigger projects, and the start of an exciting new reviewing opportunity.   Monday:   Good intentions for a proper writing day at Good & Proper with Ann.   I faffed around on the internet for half […]

Summary:   Glad to be maintaining a daily habit, but I do feel as if I’m doing a lot of planning and a lot of noodling around, but not really actually getting on with anything substantial. Hopefully that will change next week with some proper scheduled writing sessions with other people.   Monday:   Made […]

Summary: My 2019 goals are underway and looking closer to completion than ever. There’s a lot of work to do, but I’m excited to get started and see where it takes me.   Monday: A good and proper writing session at Good & Proper with Ann. I initially got distracted for a while by the […]

Summary: Very happy with the start to my 2019 writing. So far, I’ve worked on it every day (though I don’t intend to keep that up past January) and I’m excited about what I’m going to achieve this year.   Tuesday: I edited a piece of flash fiction down from 650 words to just under […]

Summary:   I’m pleased overall with my 2018 writing. I revised my first novel and got a good response from submitting it. I worked on my second novel and have a plan for taking it forwards. I wrote several really good short stories and got a fair few published. I found paid work in the […]

Summary: Well, I made plans for a better regime, but starting in 2019, so not really implemented this week…   Tuesday: I got off the train at Waterloo at 3pm, with about three hours before needing to meet people at Angel – and what was exactly halfway between the two on the map? Good and […]

Summary: Being ill sucks. No writing (or much of anything) for me in the first half of the week, though I did manage some bits and pieces in the second half, in between all the coughing and nose-blowing.   Thursday: I started out by reading a blog post about maintaining your writing habit, which I […]

Summary: Not a very productive week. Mostly just admin and reviews.   Monday: I met Ann at our old stomping grounds in Brick Lane, and started out with a blog post about the benefits of fanfiction, which got picked up and retweeted by the creators of Fanatical: The Sci-Fi Convention Musical. Then I faffed around […]
