TUESDAY 9TH – started another kids’ story, first chap
WEDNESDAY 10TH – wrote two chapters
THURSDAY 11TH – shopping, library and chiro
FRIDAY 12TH – washing, dishes, JDS blog posts, last chapter of TKW story
SATURDAY 13TH – started typing up my kids’ stories
SUNDAY 14TH – as above
I’m surprised I managed to get the stories written. I wrote one back in April/May but there was just no inspiration to make me keep going, and then I had all of the paperbacks to get done so all of the business stuff had precedence. But, since all that was done by Sep 19th on release date, I’ve had a couple of weeks to get ready and get done. So hopefully, for the rest of the month, I’ll write next year’s TKW as well to put me ahead while I’m in the mood. Thankfully, I can at least write 10 pages a day, that’s something.
What did you guys get up to these last two weeks?
That’s an impressive body of work. I’ve spent the last two weeks editing, proof reading and finishing writing “I Promise”. Then there’s blogging, and getting my “Object Lesson” book into shape. I had to split it because it was over 1000 pages.
I know the feeling. You’ll be getting the kids’ stories to edit soon.
