Somehow, a week has managed to come and go. Don’t ask me how, I couldn’t explain why the Earth spins, or how I could possibly have done so little in the week that just passed. Yup, did almost nothing again. Ok, that’s not exactly true I suppose, just didn’t make much headway with my writing [...]

My farewell to Sudbury, whereupon I review what I’ve accomplished over the past two years.

I am now eight days in to Script Frenzy, and my script has gone in a different direction from that which I had originally planned. I’ve used all the scenes I had in my treatment, except for the final scene. It appears that I’m not quite willing to end the story yet, even though my [...]

Been a busy month getting everything ready for April. I managed a fair bit of writing on my own during March, but now is the time to look at Script Frenzy. My current script, “Attack! Attack! Attack!” has just crossed 27 pages. The official goal is 100 pages of scripts in a month. I’m nearing [...]

We’re currently 3 days in Script Frenzy. I’m currently 27 pages into my script. The official goal for the month is 100 pages. So far, that’s coming across super easy for me. Is it a good script? No. Not even close. I’m writing it over the top, corny, and with really, really badly worded songs. [...]

Script Frenzy is nearly upon us. As I start writing this, there is about 15 hours left until all participants can begin scribbling down their scripts and fighting their way to the top of the heap. I can hardly wait for it all to begin. Of course, Script Frenzy began for me nearly two months [...]

I continue to work my way down the long road. The past week has been full of all sorts of stresses. Family, work, writing, and critiquing issues have been pushing up against me as I continue to fight my way through. I guess I have a little bit to talk about here today. In terms [...]

Day 231 I took off. And by took off, I mean I ran all over town on the last day of my bus pass. Even took a trip to chapters and copied down a few titles that I want to borrow for my new charge. Day 232 I did a quick edit of “Thrown Away” [...]

I have finished the editing run of Hedged In. Go me! I also wrote a short, 955 word, piece of flash fiction titled “Thrown Away”. I sent it to the group for critiquing, but I think I should have given it another run-through first. Oh well, just means more feedback I guess. Tomorrow, I start [...]

So I’m calling the day at an end and am currently sitting at page 161 / 204. This is going a lot slower than I anticipated. On the bright side, I should have this part all wrapped up by the end of the day tomorrow. Bookmark on Delicious Digg this post Recommend on Facebook Buzz [...]
