I'm back from Arisia. I'm printing the draft of The Duke and the Pirate Queen today, so I can read over and make more notes about what I'd like to edit before I submit (I already have a few notes).

Rehearsal tonight, so no writing.

Had fun at Arisia! Will post some photos over in the pro blog.

Accomplished today's 2500-word goal, then went to gym.

That's pretty much it for today. Tomorrow will be more of the same, with getting a haircut to replace going to the gym.

My goal for last night was 500 words, but I pushed forward for 1000 words (just barely over). I plan to write during lunch today, then go to rehearsal tonight, which will serve as a break for my brain ( Read more... )

I reached my goal of 2000 words on Sunday. Today is a gym day, and I'd slept too badly to get up early, so am not sure if I'm writing at lunch or after work. But I'll do one or the other. Tomorrow, I'll write at lunch because I have rehearsal at night ( Read more... )

1158 words in Friday (during lunch and after work). 2331 words on Saturday, plus going to gym ( Read more... )

I wrote 1000 words on my lunch hour yesterday. It went so fast because it was virtually all monologue, the big confession of past angst scene. I need to rework it a little because I realized there was a logic error in the story, resulting from me not having figured out all the implications. Writing it down helped with that. And once I've edited ( Read more... )

All of 550 words last night. I saw other words I would like to cut, but didn't allow myself to cut most of them. I am going forward right now. I also made a few changes to the scene notes for the last few chapters. I plan to write at lunch today, and after work. It felt good to make progress. I am within about 25K of having a completed draft ( Read more... )

I am a slow starter this morning. I made it to the gym, but not as early as I'd hoped, so I didn't have time to do a circuit of weights; need to figure out how better to organize my workouts to make them most efficient. I did some squats and crunches, plus fifteen minutes of elliptical, which was more intense than the treadmill. I see the ( Read more... )

I have Stuff to Do. I need to make another appointment with the trainer for this week. I have to pack for CapClave - I leave Friday morning. I have two more visits to the cat I'm sitting, and choir rehearsal on Tuesday. Oh, and I need to write ( Read more... )

I wrote one page last night. Couldn't figure out why I couldn't concentrate. Then I went to bed, and woke up really sick...guess that was it. I finally got back to sleep and then my phone rang at 5:30 am, but it was a wrong number. I couldn't get back to sleep until about fifteen minutes before my alarm. Stomach is better now, regardless. I' ( Read more... )
