Hello. Hope all is well and you are safe.
I’m having a creative dry spell. I also forgot to take my sinus and allergy meds. I’m annoyed. Let me take them now. It seems like I work pest on my days off, but im still gonna do a blog post.
Why? Cause I’m a write regardless of a dry spell. I love writing. Its up to me to make progress even when it feels like I have nothing to offer. Who knows. Taking time to make space and time for writing is something.
Happy creative endeavors.
Hello. Hope all well and you are safe.
I am mildly distracted by fam at the moment. I’m also cranky. It happens. It will pass.
It doesn’t help that I have that meh, bah energy covering all day.
Creativity has dried a little from last night, which is fine. I may need a break from it. At the very least it allows me to appreciate active writing. This dry spell moment will pass too.
I need to regroup and get something creative done.
Happy creative endeavors.
Spent yesterday on my laptop formatting additional text for my manuscript and adding it to the original text. It seems simple but, additional changes the flow of the story. It also meant editing the surrounding parts of the story. So, I put in the work for this.
Today is no different. I have a beat I love that needs a lot of cleaning up. I did format it but I need to make sure the names are correct and fits within the material.
I consider this part of writing and love it. I learned things about my characters I didn’t know.
Happy creative endeavors.
Hello. Hope all is well and you are safe.
Today I early voted. That felt good to do. It was far more smoother than it was the last time I did this. So the process was simply wonderful.
Yesteday I did the writing. Today I am thinking of formatting it properly and possibly adding onto it without overdoing it.
I should go eat a meal. I’m getting hungry. All these forces tugging at me as I have a couple of errands I need to take care of. Let’s see what I get done.
Happy creative endeavors
Hello. Hope all is well and you are safe.
Yesterday, while getting ready for the day, I had a random impulse to write out dialog to add to an existing scene. It’s raw, unformatted, and doesn’t properly tag the proper voices, but I couldn’t let the idea go.
I added more to this text today which reminded me that I haven’t written a blog post yet. It’s still unformatted but it’s an extension of previous written text. I’m going to not only have to format it, but make sure it fits into the previously written content.
That’s me for this day.
Happy creative endeavors.
Hello. Hope all is well and you are safe.
Tempted to go back to bed, but im up and about. I dont have to be too active just yet.
It still looks dark outside.
Did more rewriting last night and a little this morning. This beat really held my attention. Im happy to produce new text, especially if it brightens the previous content.
Gonna go eat some food, rest, and clean up, then relax.
Happy creative endeavors.
Hello. Hope all is well and you are safe.
I woke up this morning and started working on this transitional beat. I wanted to clean up the text. It needs a deeper cooling down period, as I don’t see myself improving it further at this time. Not to worry, I have some things to do that will help me “forget” this passage.
I can say, once again this is good content because it closes a story arc. I thought it was good before because I previously shut the arc down. I didn’t conclude the arc. Big difference.
Shut downs are so abrupt and is dussatifying. I couldn’t see it at the time. Working on the 2nd novella taught me that arcs need stronger closures. Could it have stayed rough? Possibly. But it having that moment when a reader can see a part of the story end is real and lasting.
EDIT: It’s late. I had an exhausting day. Im gonna relax.
Hello. Hope all is well and you are safe.
Tonight I can have a few sips of soda with my late pizza. Then it’s water for the rest of the night.
Randomly realized a transitional beat is needed for my forst novella. It simply bridges a scene better. I imagine it to be a few sentences. I’ll work on that soon.
Having the idea really is the spark to make this night better. Still letting novella 2 cool down. No sign of inspiration to adjust, rewrite, or elaborate on the content.
Let me tear up this pizza, relax and enjoy my night. You can’t buy peace and quiet. Enjoy it with confident and grattitude.
Happy creative endeavors.
Hello. Hope all is well and you are safe.
I thought this first novella was done. At least until I got it in front of the editor. Here I am, for the past couple of days adding content and it is so friggin good. I’m pleased with this progress. It’s not filler or fluff but brightens and opens a few beats.
The first addition was a few lines. It works so well. I thought it would be all minor tweaks. Then the next two had me sitting down and writing out passages. It needs to cool off, be properly formatted, then added to the novella. I’m pleasantly surprised. Nearly forgot the second novella. Writing can be a treat.
Happy creative endeavors.
Something fun and hopefully some exciting news.
