#WritingWednesday – The Balancing Act

For the weeks of  June 16 – July 6, 2014

Well… I’ve missed… two weeks of updates and for that I’m sorry.  It’s been a busy few weeks complete with big, epic orchestra concerts and a lot of writing.

Yes… Writing.

Progress on the Novel formerly known as Hunter is going well and is just shy of 7,000 words.  That may be a little low for two weeks, but I’ve been making steady progress and I’m liking what I have laid out.  Character conceptions are solidifying and I have had to break a rule of first drafts, and to go back and re-work.  I’m probably going to have to re-do the first scene again to define out some characterization.  It’s going to take a night when I’m in the mood to rip that scene out and re-write it almost from scratch  But I’m still very happy with progress so far.

 

The past few weeks have been a crazy balancing act with family, work, writing, and music obligations.  I hear it often, and I say it myself quite frequently, but these past couple of weeks have really put it into a new context for me.  It’s been good.  So, with lots of things on the mind, I’m keeping this one short and going to dig back into the novel.

Until next week!
