Only ten more days to go!

I didn’t spend a lot of time on the story as I wish I could have tonight. This upcoming weekend has shaped itself up to be unusually busy. Fortunately, I will have time Saturday and Sunday night (ideally) to really crack-down on writing a lot.

I was able to start the next scene alright, but due to time constraints, I really didn’t feel like it got off to the right start. I’ll probably restart it again tomorrow when I have a wee bit more time.

I listened to Apocalyptica’s self-titled album today. I hadn’t listened to it in awhile. Given I listened to their album “Reflections” not too long ago, I figured I should keep the trend going.

Until tomorrow, folks!

I blitzed through writing what I had worked on yesterday, officially letting me finish the scene I had started before I moved.

Heavy subject, indeed. However, I’m glad that portion of the story is over because things are really starting to build up in terms of action. I’m at the “calm before the storm” with the plot. I’m really eager to get to all of the excitement the next little bit of the story will be providing. I do think that I’ll get to it at the time my thirty day challenge is over.

But that doesn’t mean I’ll stop writing!

I’ll explain more about what I’m doing after my thirty day challenge when I get closer to the end. Hey! That’s only eleven days away!

Speaking of calms before storms, I listened to Transatlantic’s album, “The Whirlwind.” Given the songs subject matter about religion and faith, I’m surprised I hadn’t listened to this sooner when writing about those specific topics in my story. The song is just over and hour long, and I always end up having it loop. It’s a really cool progressive rock song with Neal Morse (ex-Spock’s Beard, Flying Colors), Mike Portnoy (ex-Dream Theater, Flying Colors), Pete Trewavas (Marillion), & Roine Stolt (The Flower Kings).

Until tomorrow, friends!

I had a decent amount of progress today.

But a heavy subject in the current part I’m writing kept me from finishing it. I needed to take a break. I’ll have tomorrow to finish it off!

“The Yum Yum Tree” by Ozric Tentacles.

Until tomorrow!

I’m back and all moved in!

While I’m not fully unpacked, I did decide to take some time out of my day to get back to writing. The thing is, when you haven’t written anything about your story for the past few days, you sort of forget exactly how you were leaving off. That, and I needed to get back into the groove of things.

I spent the majority of the day re-reading what I had written and doing little edits here and there to sharpen things up – mostly with dialogue. It was fun!

Now that I feel like I’m back into the swing of things, I’ll probably start progressing forward tomorrow with writing! Hooray!

In the meantime, I have tons of wires laying around this apartment and a staple gun to show them who’s boss!

Most of my albums are still in boxes, so I just picked up what was on the top of the stack. Fortunately it was King Crimson’s “In the Wake of Poseidon,” which is really great to listen to at all times.

Until tomorrow, folks!
