Summer Writing Challenge / 4th Check-In

 

Hi, y’all! It’s been a hectic week of the expected and unexpected again, with so many things swirling about that it’s best to call this Challenge episode “Spinning Wheels” or “Tornadoes”.

“Spinning Wheels” seems more appropriate because I did gain headway in all three project areas. It’s a tornado, though, because—well, I’ll explain as I detail this week.

Summer Writing Challenge / 3rd Check-in

 

Hi all! We’re onto our third check-in for the Summer Writing Challenge.

As usual, I’ve overloaded myself in contemplating everything that I want to accomplish for June and July. To complete everything may take me into August.

And I’ve already encountered one problem that may require me to extend the Challenge into August.

This means that I’ve bitten off much more than I should have with my three projects and the additional admission that I may switch a project mid-stream … if Project 2 continues giving trouble.

Let’s get into the nitty-gritty of the past week, before we discuss the problem and then head off into some musings from “Be a Writer”.

Summer Writing Challenge / 2nd Check-In

 

Hi! It’s the 2nd Check-in for the Summer Writing Challenge, all through June and July, tracking not only words but also those other tasks that a write needs to do to pursue success.

For the first days of June, four days, Saturday to Tuesday, we had achievements on two of our projects in the Master Plan. Project 1 had 15,617 new words on the manuscript of Defeat Writers Block. Project 3, we had the 1st check-in Podcast, prep, draft, and everything involved in producing a podcast episode.

These past seven days, Wednesday to Tuesday, didn’t achieve as much.

Join us to hear what happened.

Summer Writing Challenge / 1st Check-In

 


Welcome to our 1st Check-in for this Summer Writing Challenge, tracking not only words but also other tasks that a writer needs to pursue success. 

We began tracking on June 1, and we’ll continue to July 31.

As part of my Master Plan, I have three projects.

  • Turning the Defeat Writer’s Block series into audiobook, ebook, and paperback.
  • A massive project writing five short story, creating audiofiles for 15 stories, and publishing the 5-story collection and the 15-stoory bundle in ebook, paperback, and audiobook.
  • All the miscellaneous tasks that writers do, including this podcast

The check-ins will list what occurred with the projects as well as classifying them as successes or failures.

We’ll conclude with five minutes or so of inspirational musings on writing.
