Wednesday Weekly Roundup

Last week I wrote a little over 6K, and this week I should reach the first 100K of the year. And since we’re already halfway, if I reach 250K by December, I’ll consider it a win. I had a slow start on the next project, and most of the weekend I was very distracted with […]

Wednesday Weekly Roundup

Last week I managed to write a short story (4K+) during my travels, so yay! One more done! Now I’m considering the novels that follow that story… some brainstorming with myself to do this week! And it’s May, so new title! And it’s Wonder Man, a Star Minds Federation novel and the connection between Lone […]

Wednesday Weekly Roundup

So, no new words last week, I was too busy getting lost and being clumsy in France, LOL! My feet were destroyed by the wrong shoes and I spent two afternoons in cinemas, watching French movies, only to allow those poor feet to recover. I also brought 3 DVDs home… and I’m trying to declutter… […]

Wednesday Weekly Roundup

Last week I wrote less than 2K, but I did manage to wrap a couple of projects. This week I probably won’t write much, since I’m traveling, but I do have Writing Netbook with me, so… you never know! 😉 In fact, I may forget to finish and post this, so I may skip a […]

Wednesday Weekly Roundup

Last week I wrote a little over 4K and sort of finished a rough first draft. It needs a pass and an epilogue, then I’ll be done. I also got back another book from a beta-reader, so this week is busy with finishing what I need to send to Mighty Editor for next week! It […]

Wednesday Weekly Roundup

Last week I managed 11K+ alternating between writing, research and the chores… and had a taste of what it will be like when I won’t have to go to work every morning. Then this week I went back to the office, and we just lost a beloved colleague (now retired), whom we called Sharon Stone’s […]

Wednesday Weekly Roundup

Last week I wrote a solid 4K. This week I’m off day job, but I’m actually starting to declutter the house, something I’ve been wanting to do for at least a couple of years. And of course my almost-29-year-old car broke down, so I’ll probably get rid of it too. I aim for a life […]

Wednesday Weekly Roundup

Last week I wrote less than 2K in three days, and spent the rest of the week editing and formatting and publishing and deciding what to write next. I’m going to continue with sci-fi for the month of April, so I can write all the ideas I have as of now, and then I can […]

Wednesday Weekly Roundup

Last week I wrote almost 4K and I’m almost done with that story as well. I got an idea for a comic and I might go back to high fantasy earlier than expected, but we’ll see. I also got back the translation of Magical Friends so the beginning of April might be a little busy, […]

Wednesday Weekly Roundup

Last week I wrote a little over 6k and started on the last book of the Publishing Challenge. Again I have a base story (actually 3 versions) that I need to completely rewrite and merge, so it should be quick enough, since I already know the story. The Kickstarter is almost funded, have you checked […]
