Weekly Word Counts TIK: 278 DD: 477 TBS: 154 BD: 0 Total: 909 Editing hours: 0 Clearly, the higher word count goals aren’t working for me, so I’m going back to basics with a standard 250 words per day goal. I’m still under a lot of the time, but getting better, and a big part […]

Weekly Word Counts TIK: 631 DD: 155 TBS: 331 BD: 0 Total: 1,117 Editing hours: 0 Last week the word counts didn’t go as planned, but something else did, so I’m still counting it as a success. I had some serious brain fog issues going on that were just unavoidable, unfortunately (should not be an […]
Weekly Word Counts TIK: 619 DD: 557 TBS: 0 BD: 0 Total: 1,176 Editing hours: 0 You may (or may not) have noticed I missed a couple week’s worth of posts. I’ve been having another ridiculous pity party centered on not being able/willing to find time to write. I do that because of course, I […]
Weekly Word Counts TIK: 568 DD: 561 TBS: 0 BD: 0 Total: 1,129 Editing hours: 0 Not a lot of progress this week, but at least it’s some. I’m trying to be more flexible with the writing times, and that seems to be working out…some of the time. But I also still have a pretty […]
Weekly Word Counts MMM/TIK: 308 DD: 251 TBS: 0 BD: 650 Total: 1,209 Editing hours: 2 Long time no update! Only two weeks, actually, but the first week I just plain forgot, and last week…well, there was a Godsmack/Shinedown concert, and yeah, I forgot again. Not that I’ve been writing particularly much lately, but still. […]
Weekly Word Counts MMM/TIK: 0 DD: 86 TBS: 0 BD: 354 Total: 440 Editing hours: 0 I got a tiny bit of writing in this week, but not nearly as much as I’d have liked. I need to change my writing times again, so I’m trying out a few different things. So far, one thing […]
Weekly Word Counts MMM/TIK: 636 DD: 0 TBS: 0 Total: 636 Editing hours: 0 Yes, it was one of those weeks. No, I don’t particularly want to talk about it. So why am I posting? I’m posting because I did write six hundred words in one session this week. Which isn’t bad progress, and if […]
Weekly Word Counts MMM/TIK: 397 DD: 286 TBS: 0 Total: 683 Editing hours: 0 Yes, I know. I’m going backwards. Not good. It was a busy week, I’ve been dealing with stuff, yadda yadda, but yeah. I need to get back into gear and be more disciplined about my writing. I have some different things […]
Weekly Word Counts MMM: 877 DD: 0 TBS: 0 Total: 877 Editing hours: 0 The Labor Day weekend kind of threw me for a loop, and not only did I not get my writing post up, I didn’t do any writing until Thursday night of this past week. I’m actually happy I got the words […]
Weekly Word Counts MMM: 818 DD: 394 TBS: 268 Total: 1,480 Editing hours: 0 Funny how counts go up and down from week to week, isn’t it? Or maybe just annoying, really. I’d much prefer they just keep going up, but…it’s been a busy and distracting, smoky week. I’ve had low-grade headaches most of the […]
