the neurovore of Zur-En-Aargh:
Did another one of the awkward compressy bits in Prequel to Thing I Should Be Working On, Friday, turning two chapters into one; I am not at all sure it worked, think I was too jet-lagged from returning home yet to really be at my best.
I am until August 10 on a summer schedule at the day job which means working only to lunchtime Fridays, which should be good for getting a good run at writing Fri afternoon and evenings. Two more awkward compressy bits to come, I think, and then the rest ifs a fairly clear pass through and send off, and then I go back to Thing I Should Be Working On.
There's also a potential thing with Thing I Want To Be Working On which is a long shot and which I can't talk about, but which is kind of heartening, as are the couple of very positive beta reports I had on it over the last few weeks.
shades of grey:
^Sounds promising. :)

Got 860 words added to my 10,000 words, which was good for me, since I've done zilch lately. Now I need to go back and refine, as I always write what I call quick and dirty, then edit, usually on another day when I'm fresh and new ideas are more likely to pop into my head.
At least my little writing session last night got me motivated again. :) And that's a very good thing.

It is indeed!
Got a huge section covered last night. I think it's going to be a get the story down job, then go back and fill in the cracks.

Congratulations! :D It's a good feeling, isn't it?
I have yet to write a novel length story, but I will one of these days. In that case I will likely plan it out better than I do the short ones.
I know I should work on one story tonight, but there are two lurking behind it that are poking me in the back, pointing out that I've left them high and dry for far too long. I should, I suppose, go add a little to each of them before they start a mutiny. :P

Good luck and well done all of you
I might get my chapter finnished to day witch woyld be good
We shall see
Zuriel:
Well, my writing plan fell apart last night. Only got about 600 words written, but I did finish one short story, so that was progress.
I had trouble deciding which story to work on and wound up accomplishing very little. Hmm...must do better tonight. :)
