“Let us dare to read, think, speak, and write.”

  • This Week: Oct. 7-12

    I was pretty lazy last week. Last week’s focus was characters; I didn’t get much done with those. I already had the work done, but I wanted to polish it up and I really didn’t. Although I did little work, it won’t affect my WIP too much because I already did that work anyway. This…

  • This Week: Sep. 30-Oct. 5

    Last week, I made my timeline and schedule and organized myself. I also finished September’s course on YWW: so not much writing, but more organizing. This week will be a little different as well. WIP: This week I’m focusing on characters. I’ve already fleshed out my main characters and put the information together, but I…

  • This Week: Sep. 23-28

    Last week was also a fairly unproductive week. I have a lot on my schedule and am learning to incorporate writing into that. It all comes down to time management. This week I’ll focus on time management and organizing myself. Time: I want to make a timeline for writing my book to visualize where I…

  • This Week: Sep. 16-21

    I will be honest, I wasn’t very productive last week. I barely “wrote.” However, I did some extra stuff that was still productive just not what I was supposed to do. I gutted my desk and reorganized it to make it a better writing area. I hung up the bulletin board I use for storyboarding,…

  • This Week: Sep. 9-14

    Okay, I slightly reformed my weekly writing schedule. Now, I’m making Sundays a rest day. That doesn’t mean I won’t write or do writing things, but it just means I’m not required. Well, last week was fine. I finished the character profile worksheets for my MCs and the monthly YWW course for August. The CPWs…

  • This Week: Sep. 2-8

    It’s September now! Also, Happy Labor Day! This week will be a normal week again. Now that school and other activities are in session and regulating, I can plan more easily because I’m not working around spontaneous trips and dumpster cats invading our backyard (that didn’t happen, but we like to steal cats from the…

  • This Week: Aug. 26-Sep. 1

    From returning from vacation last week to today, I made normal progress toward my goals. I wrote every day (even if it was as little as a journal entry) and did a YWW lesson. I did a lot of platform work and made some new plans, too. Overall it was normal, but I could have…

  • It’s Wednesday, My Dudes

    I got back from vacation yesterday. This summer was pretty full, and its end had a few trips stacked together. I’m home now and I’ll be returning to normal. It’s the middle of the week and right after a vacation, so my goals are sort of lopsided. Last week I only worked on Monday and…

  • This Week: Aug. 12-18

    This week will also be crazy. I have an actual vacation from the 14th-19th, and I won’t be writing at all. I’ve tried the whole “I’ll write during this trip!” thing and it’s just stressing me out. I won’t have much time to work this week since I leave on Wednesday. Once I get back…

  • This Week: Jul. 29-Aug. 4

    Oh, boy. I need to reorient myself. Not writing at camp threw off my groove, and I didn’t even write on Friday and Saturday. But, no matter, I’m getting back on the grooviest groove. Let’s recap those two weeks. So, I wrote every day from the 15th through the 20th because it was a normal…
