Ready. Set. Write! (Week 7)


How I did on last week’s goals:

Write a little every day on my new YA Horror WIP...EPIC FAIL! I had the best of intentions,  but only managed to write 2 days last week. I guess it's better then nothing!

My goal(s) for this week:

Write a page a day for 3 days on my new YA Horror WIP, skip to the good stuff!

A favorite line from my story OR a word or phrase that sums up what I wrote/revised:

Too much play-by-play of physical movement, not enough action! 

The biggest challenge I faced this week:

A serious lack of motivation/enthusiasm for my project. I swear, writing a first draft is such a roller coaster experience for me. One minute I love it, the next minute I hate it...Ugh, it's exhausting! I wish I wasn't always so wishy-washy about my WIPs! *sigh*

Something I love about my WIP:

Any scene where a cute guy/scary moment is involved! ;) (which is I think the reason why I didn't enjoy writing much this week, not enough "cute guy/scary scenes, must rectify that ASAP!)

  1. Skipping to the good stuff is always a good way to get the word count up there. Sometimes you have to do it to keep the story going. There will always be revisions!

    I looove RITErs;
    I looove giving'm opportunities
    for thots/ideas/structural integrity,
    taking'm in a completely-new-direction:

    Why else does a moth fly FROM the night
    than to a bold, attractive candle Light??
    Don’t let His extravagant Brilliance be extinguished.
    You’re creative, yes?
    Then, fly-away with U.S. to the antidote…

    Whether you obtain morality4mortality to wiseabove
    or just glean tantalizing specimens for thy next best seller,
    you shall find in our blogs a lotta (subliminal) moxie
    which has taken this sinfull mortal yeeeeers to compile!
    I lay it ALL out for you, dear, with All-Star-Oxygems:

    Wouldn’t ya love an endless eternity
    of aplomBombs falling on thy indelible cranium?
    An XtraXcitinXpose with no zooillogical-expiration-date?
    An IQ much higher than K2 all-go-rhythm?
    An anti-establishment, savvy victory +
    avant-guarde-humility =
    you’re promptly astonished, ain’tcha?
    withe extraordinarily explosion of maelstrom mellowdramatic??
    Here’s what the exquisite, prolific GODy sed
    (with a most-excellent-detector of bull§ht):

    “Faith, hope, and love,
    the greatest of these is love –
    jump into faith…
    and you’ll VitSee with love”
    Doesn’t matter if you don’t believe (what I write);
    God believes in you.

    Meet me Upstairs, girl, where the Son never goes down
    from a super-passionate, lucrative iconoclasm where you’ll find
    nonillionsXnonillionsXnonillionsXnonillionsXnonillionsX…
    of deluxe-HTTP [<- pi] opportunities for excitement BTW.

    Do it. Do the deed, dude. Sign into the Big-Zaftig-House.
