Writing Journal: Y2 Day 171

When I started these posts, I thought I’d just write about writing, but somewhere along the way, I started thinking I had to be more pointery (as in, I needed to have a point), or insightful or something.  When you get there in your head...

Writing Journal: Y2 Day 151

I haven’t been keeping up with the writing journal lately.  This is due mostly to not knowing what to say.  Or maybe not having anything to talk about. Sam Kane books 1 & 2 are being shopped by The Agent, which takes time, so...

Writing Journal: Y2 Day 123

It’s been a long time since my last Writing Journal (50 days). I’ve started and stopped several new journal posts in that time.  I can make excuses about why I haven’t journaled, including the whole unemployment thing, but...

Writing Journal: Y2 Day 73

Last time, I mentioned that I was going into edit/revision mode for Sam Kane Book 2, which I did.  I also sent out a ton of resumes, hit a job fair, recorded some podcasts – but we’re here to talk about the writing, so let’s get...

Writing Journal: Day 45

Critique Group I continue to be amazed by this group of people. Once upon a time, I heard that police canvass an area after a crime, asking every single witness to describe what they saw because each person sees something different.  They then...

Writing Journal: Day 41

So, work progresses. The sidebar meter for ‘Into the Fire’, the rewrite of the novel, jumped forward from 26k to 29k, which is good.  Unfortunately, I forgot to reset my weekly session target widget in Scrivener on Monday, so my...

Writing Journal: Day 11

What does your writing folder look like? By ‘writing folder’, I mean whatever you use to organize your writing.  It can be paper books or pads, typed pages, old floppy discs, iomega zip discs, cd’s, dvd’s – even tape...

Writing Journal: Day 10

Sigh. Well, the word count widget in the sidebar finally advanced.  Took a leap forward is more accurate.  From 15k to 21k on Into the Fire.  It hadn’t moved in a while and that’s due to stupidity on my part and a setting in...

Writing Journal: Day 4

First up – be aware that I won’t be doing these journal posts every day, hence the jump in days from 1 to 4.  That’ll keep me on my toes mathwise… Second, I haven’t written a word of fiction since my 4000 word mega...

Writing Journal: Day 1

I’m going to try a new thing – keeping a journal here on the blog about my writing.  You may ask yourself – how will this be any different from what you normally do here? Well – I’ll be concentrating solely on the...
