So many words. So little time.

This was another great writing week! Journaling, and four book reviews: A Magic Deep and Drowning, by Hester Fox, Pretty Girl County, by Lakita Wilson, Party of Liars, by Kelsey Cox, and Let’s Make a Scene, by Laura Wood. I think my Muse is starting to show some faint stirrings of interest in fiction again, too.
Happy writing!
Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!
This was a solid writing week: one book review, The Summer She Went Missing, by Chelsea Ichaso, and five fiction writing sessions. Is it bad if I realize, while writing, that I know I’m wandering a bit and the second draft will have to be reigned in a lot? I hope not. I keep telling myself I’m just trying to get a feel for the character…
Happy writing!
This was a fantastic writing week! I got in five fiction-writing sessions, and I wrote three book reviews, too: A Body at the Seance, The Missing Witness (up on Tuesday), and It Takes a Rake (up on Thursday). I’m very happy with this amount of writing.
How was your writing week?
This was a fantastic writing week! I wrote one book review, Emily Wilde’s Map of the Otherland, by Heather Fawcett (won’t be up until 1/18), and five fiction sessions!
Last February, I started trying to write every day, and I think I missed three days the rest of the year. However, “writing” consisted of fiction or book reviews or writing in my prayer journal. This year, I refined my goal. Yes, I still plan to write every day, but I want five of those writing sessions every week to be fiction (aiming for just 500 words/session). And this week, I hit that, so I’m celebrating.
How was your writing week?
I’m happy with this writing week: a review for The Roaring Days of Zora Lily, by Noelle Salaza, which was a fantastic historical fiction read, and I actually did some fiction-writing. Five hundred words is better than no words!
Happy writing!
This was a decent writing week: I wrote three book reviews (Warrior Girl Unearthed, The Secret Book of Flora Lea, and The Last One to Fall by Gabriella Lepore, forthcoming), my April reading post, and the best books I read in April post. My job has entered a new stage of crazy, so writing will be challenging for a while, but I’m looking forward to doing more brainstorming on the potential fiction idea.
Happy writing!
I ended up working an extra day this week—and all five days were mentally exhausting—so I only wrote one book review this week, Pieces of Me, by Kate McLaughlin. (Interesting read, but it struck me as a bit sugar-coated.) I also DNFed three books (again), Where Coyotes Howl, The Dutch Orphan, and Under the Cover of Mercy. The first one, I DNFed because there was no conflict in the first 25%, the second, the POV was too distant for my taste, and the last one, the MC felt a bit haughty and distant.
I also wrote four posts on A Little Bit Greener: Green=peace of mind, Time is greener, Sometimes it’s hard to find the light, and tell them they’re pretty. I honestly didn’t realize I wrote that much this week…I ALSO binge read Kresley Cole’s From the Gave , the final book in the Arcana series, which I love.
I also did a solid bit of brainstorming on the new story idea, so I’m very happy with this week of writing!

This was a solid writing week: I wrote two book reviews, Fateful Words, by Paige Shelton and The Sinister Booksellers of Bath, by Garth Nix. I also wrote three posts over on A Little Bit Greener: taking the time, Gardening is greener, and I discovered. And, I did a tiny bit of brainstorming on the potential new fiction project.
Happy writing!
This was a good writing week! I wrote four book reviews: Hotel of Secrets, by Diana Biller, Yours Truly, the Duke, by Amelia Grey, Please, Sorry, Thanks, by Mark Batterson, and When You Wish Upon a Star, by Elizabeth Lim (forthcoming on April 4th). I did a little bit of work over on my other blog, A Little Bit Greener, and I should have a related post up later today there. Also still toying with a fiction idea. I’m very pleased with this week’s writing.
Happy writing!
This week, I only wrote one book review, Whistleblower, by Kate Marchant. I also wrote three other posts over on A Little Bit Greener, which makes me very happy. It’s not much writing—but it’s way more than I had been doing.
Happy writing!
