I’ve been writing for the past few days

Monday, February 25th, 2002

Unfortunately my writing computer’s modem is not working. I’m going to have to play with the damned thing to get it going again — which I’ll do after the proposal is done. I have over fifty pages on it now.

Almost out of Sunday

Sunday, February 17th, 2002

Didn’t write anything new on Friday, though I did revise heavily. Didn’t write Saturday. Didn’t write Sunday.
I’m so tired breathing seems like an unnecessary effort.

I apologize for the typos, by the way

Friday, February 15th, 2002

I know there are some. It’s unedited first draft, and will undergo heavy rewriting before submission — but not until the first draft is done.

Well, it’s Friday

Friday, February 15th, 2002

I’ve had a couple of good writing days, took off yesterday completely to celebrate Valentine’s Day and play my Valentine’s Day present, Majesty … oh, boy … talk about a game that will keep you glued to the computer.

I’m better […]

1738 words on chapter one

Tuesday, February 5th, 2002

And I’m rolling. Got to meet a few of the characters today, got to add some flesh to the skeleton of the world that’s been rattling around in my head. Fun, interesting writing day. I like what I got.

My approach on the new proposal

Tuesday, February 5th, 2002

I’m going to write a couple of chapters first, then put together a lean, several-page synopsis of the rest of the novel. I seem to be running into trouble with my thirty-to-forty page outlines. Time to take a different approach.

Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh…

Monday, February 4th, 2002

That was nice. A couple of completely work-free days. I am, however, already tired of that. I’m ready to get back to work.
I’m starting on the fourth attempt at the proposal.
