Check in: Day 13

I'm [personal profile] the_rck, and I'll be doing the check-in posts this week. I'll try to get them up during my mornings, but I can't promise I'll always be that prompt.

So how's the writing going today?

Did you write?
Edit?
Research?
Plan?
Send to beta?
Take a break?
Deal with other life things?

Weekends tend not to be good writing time for me. My family's home then, and I get distracted. I need to learn to write through distraction. So far this month, I've done very, very little. I've got fragments of the story planned. I simply need to write them.

Today's discussion question-- Do you ever write from prompts? If you do, how do you go from the prompt to the story? If you don't, what doesn't work about prompts for you?

I like writing from prompts. They help me narrow my focus enough to create a story. A lot of times, without a prompt, I end up just staring at the screen and feeling like what I'm facing is too big to tackle. I have written without prompts, more than once, but I like starting from a prompt.
