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

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

Total for the week: 15,273 words. It’s time to call bullshit on “getting there”, because for some reason, I’m just not. I can’t–yet–figure out why I’m not getting the words down, either. But this coming week had better see some serious mileage or I’m in trouble. So. t.

Total for the week: 22,829 words. It was not as much as I would have liked, word-count wise. But it was the start of the book, which is always slow. Onward. t.

I skipped the work log post last week because I had nothing to report and I was moving at Mach 10 with my hair on fire. I put in very little time on the current book (I’m plotting/world building/series building), as Christmas and New Year preparations and celebrations distracted me (and so did several gifts’

Weekly Log – December 22, 2020: Another solid week Last week’s combined word count: 0 words. I’m starting a new series, so not only do I need to plot the first book, but I also have to world build (it’s SF), and build the series arc, too. It’ll take a bit to get to the

Last week’s combined word count: 23,715 words. Another really good week, notwithstanding a family crisis. Actually, I think writing helped pull me through the crisis, which is a change for me. It’s usually eating crap that does that. I finished book 1 of 2021, and got nearly all the post-production done on Book 2 of 2021,
