Word Count Sunday

What am I working on?

The next chapter for this class

How do I like the process?

I am enjoying it. The only tricky part is I am playing around with a few different intros to the chapter. I am going to set them all aside, write the whole thing, and see which one fits best at the end.

What am I reading?

The Adoration of Jenna Fox

Word Count Friday (again)

What am I working on?

My critiques for my Glowdark friends and journaling.

How do I like the process?

Critiquing other people's work allows me to also find things I can improve upon in my own work. It ends up being beneficial for them and for me.

What am I reading?

a poetry book that has no cover so I can't really tell you what it is

Word Count Friday

What am I working on?

Journaling like a mad woman

How do I feel about the process?

I do not know what came over me but in this past week the amount I've been journaling has sky rocketed. I just keep getting hit with inspiration and I can't seem to write enough. This is a "problem" that I am more than thrilled to have. I've been journaling like two to three times a day. I am just gonna take this sudden crazy inspiration and run with it...or should I say write with it (I'm hilarious).

What am I reading?

The Book Thief by Markus Zusak (it's my second time through and I already want to cry)

Word Count Saturday

What am I working on?

Mostly journaling and revising my chapter for this class after receiving feedback.

How do I feel about the process?

Journaling is as always a great way for me to express myself. I have recently gotten back into making it a part of my daily routine instead of every few days. I am thrilled about this and am producing work I actually like. Revising is a slow but rewarding process.

What am I reading?

Life of Pi by Yann Martel

I love this book!!!! I saw the movie when it first came out but the book is even more phenomenal ( as is usually the case).
