learning medieval ships and their anatomy tonight and how to describe it without naming the ship specifically. :)
learning medieval ships and their anatomy tonight and how to describe it without naming the ship specifically. :)
research and more research but the words are down.
a slow writing night, some outside distractions but I got some words and they're good ones.
Alas my hero is in the dread grasp of his hated enemy. This is kinda like writing yourself into a corner. I think I have figured out how to get out of the corner. :) I write every day but I don't always report every day :(
Finished up a fight scene. These are my favorites to write.
Good words tonight. Had to do some directional work which makes flow a bit harder but it is good work.
grandkids are down for a birthday, so not as many words but still got some words!
A good night of writing! I like where this first draft if going. It is just over 53k now, so I am about halfway done with the first draft as well. My goal is to publish 3 books this year.
a good night of world building.
a very good night of writing, few distractions because everyone was asleep lol.
Had to do some cutting tonight, found some repetition and parts I didn't need, started out ~400 in the hole.
This is two days worth. I get tired and forget to log my sessions sometimes.
For some reason inner dialogue is the hardest for me to write. Getting into the character's feelings and really relaying them is a task all on it's own.
I did a lot of outlining and filling in backstory tonight. Many of those words don't show up on the page, but they are there nonetheless. I've never been one for outlining but today at work I had some lull time and decided to do some. It sure helps when you sit down to write. I hope I don't lose my Pantster Card because I really liked outlining. :P
a pretty good session. No one to distract me right now :)
We had been displaced from our home due to remodeling going on, so I haven't gotten to report much, but back home now.
I did a heavy revision of a fight scene and started the night in the negatives. It was worth it to get the punch of the scene right and the emotional tone where I wanted it. I am at 40k words for this work, I am shooting for 100k so we are closing in.
a pretty good night, got a lot of solid time in but I also have a mini Schnauzer who is demanding. lol!
Finally back after the holidays. I got in a bit but during Christmas but did not log it here.
consistency is key, showing up every day is what matters most.
