Weekly writing stats for May 23-29

Hey everyone! It was a quiet writing week for me this week. I'm starting to get back into my writing groove so I'm trying to accept the slow progress as long as I'm making SOME progress. I'm also trying to limit myself to only 1 (guilt free) non-writing day.

Okay. Here is what I did this week:

Monday: +192 words to my Haunted Hotel project.

Tuesday: +82 words to the Haunted Hotel project. This means that the handwritten draft of Chapter 1 is done. Chapter 1 word count is 1,201 words.

Wednesday: no writing progress.

Thursday: Typed up the handwritten chapter 1 for the Haunted House project. Official word count is 2,180 words.

Friday: +57 words to Haunted Hotel project. Started chapter 2.

Saturday: This was a bad day for me anxiety wise but I went ahead and wrote some mission statements for my projects. This listed out what I wanted my readers to get out of my writing aside from just a good story.

Sunday: No active writing today, but I did a lot of character development. I have a bad habit of not developing my characters enough and then they turn out flat. So I sat down and did some character development for the main characters in both my stories.

Official word counts:

Haunted House: 2180 words (typed)

Haunted Hotel: 1258 words (handwritten)

Coffee Shop Chat!

What I Did This Week... This week has been super busy!   Sunday:  Had a meeting at Job #2 suuuuper early in the morning (I am NOT a morning person), and then it was off to church for the Palm Sunday service, which was awesome.  The church was freshly decorated for the season, and the children had a Palm Parade, where they walked around the block, waving their new palms around.  Super cute.  Then, I went to the coffee shop to TRY to get some writing in (that didn't go too well, but I had a delicious pot of green tea). And then I came home and worked on school work (I get my Masters in 2 months!). Workout and Meditation. Monday:  Worked at Job #1 (the library), ran errands, workout and meditation. Tuesday:  Worked at Job #2 (corporate job, ew). Had a TERRIBLE day, but that was made better by these beautiful flowers from my SO: Wednesday:  Worked on my Grad Portfolio ALL DAY (Did I mention I get my Masters in TWO MONTHS??) ...

The blog has moved!

You can see my blog posts every Saturday here I'll keep the old site up for a while to allow people to catch up. See you in the new place!
Hello hello! I'm trying to figure out a blog schedule that will work best.  Tuesdays and Thursdays don't seem to be good ones for me most of the time. I might just go with once a week on Saturday's until my schedule clears up a little. Expect some more book reviews, and some specific writing updates coming up. Camp NaNoWriMo is next month! I'm preparing by participating in the #Instawrimo project on Instagram. Filling up my "creative backpack" in preparation for Camp NaNoWriMo. You can follow the tag, or follow me @bgstrong and see what is in my creative backpack. More to come tomorrow. Until next time, B Strong &; PS new sign off! This one is less depressing, and more positive.
