Sketchbook #48
I thought that October was going to be busy, that there were a lot of things that would get in the way of my creative goals. It turned out to be even busier than I expected: I’ve only had one full week without interruptions (even today they’re testing the fire alarms in my building, which…

NaNoWriMo 2018 Diary | Post-Mortem
It’s been a week since NaNoWriMo ended, and I haven’t looked at – haven’t even thought about – my draft since then. That’s a good thing.

NaNoWriMo 2018 Diary | Week 3
So. I’m still about 4000 words below where I ‘should’ be with this story. But considering my slow start to the month, and the fact that I’ve been taking weekends off, that’s not terrible. I’ve been averaging about 2500 words a day; if I added one more short writing session every day, I could push…
