It’s been a solid writing week this week. I started doing some brief snippets to try to get a feel for the main character for the new story I’ll be starting soon. I also wrote seven book reviews and a post explaining why I rate books like I do (it’s not always only about the writing quality). Nothing prompted that post except a conversation with a friend about why I don’t finish reading every book I pick up. Here’s to more good writing weeks!

Sundays are for Writing #73
I am continuing to take a break from writing—except for four book reviews. I did type the summary ending to the King Arthur story into the draft, and thought about some of the problems with the draft, but that’s it. I’m brainstorming my next story and re-reading a draft I want to edit and polish next.
Sundays are for Writing #72
What I didn’t do this week was write. At all. Except for three book reviews (two for June, one a last-minute commitment for May). I’m tired. I’m burned out on my current WIP—but planning my next one. My mom is in town to meet my new nephew. I’m just not in a writing mood.
Better luck next week, maybe.
Sundays are for Writing #71
Well, this will be a short update. I did exactly zero fiction-writing this week, and only three book reviews. I’m not very happy with my current WIP—stalled out—and I feel like pushing through is just creating words without quality. Hopefully, I’ll feel up to writing next week. On the positive side, I have been re-reading a draft that I really want to polish and send out into the world before the end of the year.
Sundays are for Writing #70
I had four fiction-writing sessions planned this week, but I only did three.
However…I wrote eleven book reviews this week, too. I finished reading all the books I’m reviewing in May during April…and all the reviews are written, too. And my sister-in-law went into labor and I have a new nephew, so I’m fine with that level of productivity!
Sundays are for Writing #69
I hope everyone had a good week! I had four fiction-writing sessions planned this week, but I only did three. Trying to give myself a break this week and not feel guilty over things like this…and not working out at all this week.
I did write seven book reviews this week, though!
Sundays are for Writing #68
This week was a better writing week, although I still didn’t quite get all of my planned writing sessions in. I had five planned fiction sessions, but got in four. I also wrote and scheduled five book reviews in three days, so I’ll take that.
I hope everyone had a safe and happy week! Getting any writing in?
Sundays are for Writing #67
This was not a good writing week, but…considering, I’m not beating myself up over it. It is what it is, and I’m not going to put unnecessary pressure on myself when I’m really not in the mental space to write.
So, five planned sessions, but only two actual fiction-writing sessions. Five book review written, too.
Happy Easter!
Sundays are for Writing #66
I got in all five fiction-writing sessions this week. And wrote five book reviews plus two other blog posts. It’s been a productive week…Week three working from home.
How’s everyone else holding up? Doing any writing?
Sundays are for Writing #65
This week’s writing didn’t go exactly as I planned. I got in three of my planned five sessions, but Thursday and Friday didn’t happen due to last-minute work issues. Oh well, better luck next week.
Happy writing! I hope everyone’s finding some relief from the craziness!
