It's Wednesday today, and that means the week is half over!  How has it been going for you today with your writer-ly pursuits?
  • I thought about my fic once or twice
  • I wrote
  • I did some planning and/or research
  • I edited
  • I've sent my fic off to my beta
  • I posted today!
  • I'm taking a break
  • I did something else that I'll talk about in a comment
Discussion:  On Monday we discussed getting back on track when our routines are disrupted.  Please add to that by sharing about how you feel about your routine THIS week.  Are you on track for the rest of the week?  If there is one thing that would really help you achieve your writing goals for the week, what would it be?  What is one thing that might hinder you?

I wrote a bit. I think I'm going to skip the section I'm currently working on in order to write a bit that's easier. That will give me more time to think about the hard part. My point of view character is highly unsympathetic, and I'm going to have to work around that.

I've gotten thrown off track this week by my daughter having Monday off from school and by having two medical appointments. My goal for today is at least 100 words. If I can manage that, I can likely manage more. It's just a question of focusing my attention on writing. If I can do it today, I can do it tomorrow and Friday (the weekend is a whole 'nother ball of wax).

Sometimes I carve out a few hours in the evening to write and then an inexplicable mental exhaustion descends on me and I can't get a thing done.

I'm taking a break from my fic today, I passed the 10K words mark last night and I need a read through for consistency before I can add the final two chapters to it as they both have references to earlier chapters and I also need to fix the mistakes I'm certain I've made with my Glasgow geography. I looked at a road map earlier but it didn't help.

My routine has been a bit off kilter this week with having 2 days off work because of the orange weather warnings in place where I live. The extra time I've had has been nice but it's also a bit of a hindrance because I'd rather be at work or out somewhere than at home during the day.

I did a smidge of writing but nothing noteworthy! The wordcount itself isn't bad - around 450 words, but some of it was just babble that improved after a while and became action instead of telling-not-showing, and the rest was about 100 words to start off a new fic that I have no direction for at all XD

My goal for this week was to try and write something finally for a Porn Battle but once the prompts were up the only things for fandoms I could write in that I hadn't prompted myself were pairings I wouldn't write anyway! So that's a little disappointing; I don't want to fill my own prompts, I wanted to do something for someone else! I decided to switch my focus back to Kink Bingo instead and I've got a new fic idea I might get started on tonight after all even with all the WIPs I've got already 8D

I did a rewrite of the tell-not-show part of the new story. I like how it worked out; the situation for the main character is pretty well set up. Next on the list is the introduction of the conflict. Tomorrow night, I hope.

I'm writing :)

So far I only have a little over a page, but this is on an old story I am attempting to finish, or at least have a better idea of where to go with it.

Keep writing, everyone! :)

Forcing myself to write every day is really working out. Did 1500 words yesterday or earlier this morning before going to bed. So yes, I am on track, despite stupid headaches throwing me off track.

Bless science for Ibuprofen!
