Writing Process - the revised schedule

[whipchick]

everywordiwrite inquires in a comment:

How much time are you devoting a day to writing? Is that still including research? Right now, is writing your main career focus? How varied are the types of things you're writing about? Do you include editing time with writing time, or separately, or are you saving it for later?

Fantastic schedule! Structure is a great thing and totally has the capacity to up productivity. I find when I don't follow a structure things don't get done (or get done very slowly).

Also: "I retype the entire scene, not just copy-paste, because it helps me find the flow to write in new material."

I do this, too, especially with more severe rewrites. The flow just works better that way, and I find new and better ways to say what I meant to say the first time around.
