Progress Report: Week 5, May 2014

With one day to go to the end of the month, I realised I wasn’t going to make the word tally, so I turned to a chore I’d been putting off, which was transcribing older work into digital format so that I wouldn’t lose it as the paper decomposed—after twenty years, paper starts to do that. The result is that I made more progress than I expected, but in an area I had been putting off. Does it really count? I guess it does, in its own way. It’s one of those writery things that have to be kept up with. As to new words. None, since I hit the study-for-exams phase, which won’t be over for another three weeks. Today, was the only day I had to ease off. Tomorrow, it’s back to the grind to ensure I pass.OverviewNew words produced: 3,770 (in bloggery and outlines)Old words revised: 14,154 (1 essay; hand-written records transcribed)Works completed: 0Works revised: 0 Covers created: 0Works published: 0Works submitted: 6 (same competition)Competitions Entered: 1Publishing TasksCreated 1 blog posts for this blog;Created a new cover for 365 Days of Poetry New ArrivalsThe following ideas arrived this week:Chapbook1K-L: about a cat;And these ideas were taken from my old records and transcribed into the computer:Chapbook22A—Black and Blue: about a pony and a bird;Chapbook23A—Shani Leaves the Castle;Chapbook24A—Snake Strike;Chapbook25A: about pirates;Chapbook26A;Chapbook27A;FantasyNovel2A—Grey Lightning: about Riders, kingdoms and betrayal;PictureBook15A-DPictureBook16APictureBook17A: about a mother duck;PictureBook18APictureBook19A-CPictureBook20A-CPictureBook21A: about a mysterious parcel;PictureBook22A: about a butterfly;PictureBook23A: about mice;PictureBook24A: about a flowershop;PictureBook25A: about a boy and a ball;PictureBook26A;PictureBook27A: an easy reader;PictureBook28A;Reader1A-E;RomanceNovel16A: science fiction or historical romance with Scottish feel.YANovel19A-DYANovel20A—Naney Visits: about a girl that visits Scotland and has an adventure or three.YANovel21A.YANovel22A; YANovel23A: about two children, urban paranormal, fantasy;
