It's Next Time

It's been what, over ten days now. I could have sworn it was only a week, but sometimes the amount of time that has gone by can really surprise you. I didn't get nearly so much done, but the awesome news? I'm a third of the way there. Yes, it feels like such a good marker, a whole third of the way. I now, it still means two more thirds to go, but I'm looking at this like the glass is half full kind of gal, so, I'll keep cheering myself on, because I'm going to finish this next hopefully before my birthday.

Yay! New Post!

I don't know why, but I suddenly just found myself excited to write this. It's probably going to be pretty brief (which, speaking of brief, why do they call it a briefcase if they carry it around all day? Just wondering...) but the good news is I'm a fourth of the way through my third book now. Wahoo!
Seriously, it feels really good when you reach a marker goal and I can't wait to reach the next one. And I"m pretty excited to write this next segment because all this crazy crap, and  different people and events start happening, and once it unfolds even more crazy crap starts happening and it all comes together one by one.
Oh yeah, spent yesterday rearranging all this crazy crap so it would make sense and happen in order. I did a little rethinking about how I wanted it to play out and thank goodness I've figured it out. Like every single chapter I basically rearranged. I haven't written those chapters yet, but I mean, the outlines for those chapters I moved around.
Now, I've got to kick myself in the butt to hurry this story up, so until next time.... :)

Ups and Downs of Writing

Yeah, so, I'm a sixth of the way through this book now. And I got a few good extra thousand words done now, I'm just a little disappointed because I wanted to write so much more this week, but of course it didn't happen. Anyways, I can't think about that now. I just want to look forward again and not so much think about the writing goal so much as actually just enjoying writing the next chapter.
Lesson for the week: don't get caught up in your head. Just enjoy the actual writing.
I think a lot of people forget this (it doesn't have to be just writing, it could be anything really).

It's Been Six Days Till This Next Hey

Basically it's almost been another week again, but I am here to report I've gotten another 1600 hundred words or so done, and I am almost an eighth of the way through this book.
I know, I am still a ways away, but I'll get to shore eventually. I promise I'm am not drowning out at sea with this next book, I'm just taking my time. And so far it's been fairly smooth sailing. I've just got to keep rowing and I'll get there.
So yeah, some nice metaphors for you guys. Until next time....
