Total for the week: 40,385 words. Normally, that many words would be a decent week. It’s nearly 5,800 words a day. But at the moment, to try and get ahead of my production schedule so I have a decent amount of post production time for each book, I need to write 9,000 words a day […]

Total for the week: 11.269 words. I keep thinking about the quote “pride goes before a fall”. I was super happy with my productivity last week, despite challenges. So this week was one pratfall after another. I wrote some of the current book, some heavy duty blog posts, a secondary story…I got bits done here

Total for the week: 20,728 words. I did not expect this week to be as productive as it was. It was the first of the month on Monday and administration and bookkeeping on the first is always a half-day at least. And at the moment, thanks to COVID, we only shop for groceries once a

Total for the week: 12,735 words. Finished Book #3 for 2021 early, and ended up needing the time, because the new laptop for which I’d been saving up for months finally arrived. And of course, nothing is straight forward with new tech. I could not get email to work for love nor money and after

Total for the week: 44,472 words. Happy birthday to me! No wait… Happy Birthday, dear husband! No wait…! Happy anniversary!… Um, actually…Happy anniversary of the day we met! Confused yet? Yesterday was actually my birthday. It was also my husband’s birthday. And it was also our wedding anniversary. We got married one year to the

Total for the week: 4,335 words. I was blindsided by something completely out of left field last week. I got a few words written on Monday, but my motivation sank into the mire on Tuesday, despite flailing myself with guilt and panic messages (as I’m already so far behind!) Of course, Canada and parts of

Total for the week: 2,746 words. The week’s wordcount is a couple of blog posts and some lengthy reader emails. I didn’t get to breaking ground on the new novel last week (but I started this week). It puts me a little behind again, but nothing serious. Onward. t.

Total for the week: 10,722 words. It was another week when the word count doesn’t really reflect the amount of work really done. I finished story 2 for the year, after plotting it and the entire series that came with it (it was the first in a new series). I also did all the post-production

I came across a journal entry from 2018 recently that made me nod even more fervently than I did when I wrote it. I’ve cleaned it up and add it below for you to ponder upon. About using the time you have, now. I wish, I wish, I wish I had understood this when I
Using the Time You Have Now Read More »
Total for the week: 22,308 words. It was an okay week. One of the days was used for plotting and another for post-production on the book I finished this week (which is book #1 for the year)–I spent a day of writing time doing the clean up of the book I finished so I could
