Correspondence from the Front: WIP Update

I’ve had several people lately go “So, uh, what are you actually working on?” I’ve been twittering like mad about my word count, and occasionally posting humorously poorly written excerpts, and very rarely talking about the actual content of the book. But I guess I haven’t ever really talked about what it’s about

No, that IS really good advice. A friend of mine was asking if I always wrote chronologically (thinking that if I skipped to something I felt better about, I might get inspired). My answer was the exact same as yours, that I have to use the super-exciting parts as a reward to get through the other stuff.

I totally agree about watching movies. I'm definitely going to do it. I have to remind myself sometimes that watching a movie isn't necessarily slacking off... sometimes it's a necessarily mental vacation!
