It's been a couple of days on the challenge, but already I like it. I've really enjoyed reading and commenting on the blogs of other ROW80 participants and knowing that this blog will keep me somewhat accountable keeps me from slacking off.
As for my progress, I have hit my word minimums every day and have pushed through a tough point in my novel. I'm really excited about the next couple scenes I need to write. Before I knew what needed to happen, but now I finally know how it is going to happen. I have been writing this novel out of order (a first for me that I'm LOVING), but I think I'm closer to the end of this rough draft than I thought.
My other goal was to do 4-7 hours of prep a week, ideally one hour a day. So far this week, I have done 35 minutes and spent almost all of that time brainstorming titles for various untitled projects. Finding the time for prep is much harder than I thought it would be, but I am determined to make it work this week. Next week, I will figure out a better way to plan it into my schedule.

Hi Steph!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by to spread some ROW80 cheer, I had to come and return the favor!
Sounds like you are making great progress, keep it up, you'll have the novel and the screenplay done in no time!
Good luck, happy new year, and happy writing!
Glad to see things are moving along. Keep it up, Steph!
ReplyDeleteCongrats on your progress and working through a rough point in the WIP! Keep up the great job. :)
ReplyDeleteI need a sign that says brainstorming is part of the writing process. It seems that every time I get in my brainstorming-mood, that's the exact time for my hubby to come in and ask what I've accomplished for the day. I'm working on it! And I like that you specified the difference between "what" happens and "how" it happens. That is very true. Sounds like you are doing great. Keep up the good work!
