My Week in Review and Writing Links

Posted on Posted in AmWriting, Creative Tools, My Week in Review and Writing Links, Story Empire Tagged with ,

Hello everyone. Happy Friday! Well, the weather has certainly turned wetter and windier this last week. I miss the freezing but sunny days, lol.

I’ve made steady writing progress this week. It’s surprising how much just 500 words every day over five days add up over the weeks. Limiting the novel to this count allows me time to plot a few scenes ahead of where I’m at, as well as giving attention to my short stories in progress, and I’m enjoying it a lot more than banging out a high daily word count as I have done in the past. And then there’s life too. I’ve done more wedding planning/organising this week, and I can’t believe it’s now less than six months away. Where is the time going?

Have a great weekend, everyone. Here are this week’s writing links:

    • Can’t believe six have passed already. Getting excited. Have a great weekend too, Mae ?

  3. Talking about the word count makes me think of the hare and the tortoise. Slow and steady. How exciting that the wedding is so close! I wish you all the best!

  4. Thank you for the links. I see I missed a few and can now catch up. I have always concentrated on 1000 words a day (no more no less) I find it to be the best discipline. It could be 500 or 1500 but a goal that can be done every day of the week. Happy weekend to you.

    • It is so much better for me, John, as I can ALWAYS fit in 500 no matter what else is going on. This way, I don’t have to miss a day or lose the thread. Have a great weekend 🙂

  5. Glad your writing is going do well. Yes, a little bit each day adds up! Have a great weekend.
