And about the New Secret Writing Course…
I discovered there were two essential lessons I left out. So I wrote them. And now THEY’RE done. Now I’m contemplating some sort of bonus for the course, but in the meantime, I’m going to be setting up the new classroom with the lessons, and getting everything ready to make the course available to students.…

Secret Course Lesson 13 now done, worksheet has to wait until tomorrow
This particular lesson was tougher to break down into pieces — so it took me from 6 AM until just now just to lay out the lesson, and then write it out. So now I have to stop, but I’ll come back in tomorrow, and do a read-through, and from that, figure out some ways…

Update on the new Big Writing Course
I’m STILL in the middle of building my new Secret Big Class. Just finished Lesson 11 — a pretty big lesson. I’m currently looking an about twenty lessons total, so I’m making really good headway. And… I’m excited about the way this class is coming together. Had no idea what I was going to offer…

And wrapped the new Big Course Lesson 9
Very happy with what I got today on the SECRET TOPIC Fiction-Writing Big Course. I’m moving steadily through the lessons and worksheets. Finished Lesson NINE of twenty-three planned, so I’m not to the halfway point yet (that will be when I FINISH lesson 12), but I’m making very good progress. Won’t put it on sale…

Lesson 7 on the new writing course done
So I now have seven full Big Course lessons and worksheets built. And my course tester is working through them as I finish each one. I’m not giving any hints on what this course is or when it’s going to be available until I have the whole thing built. I will note, however, that I’m…

YESTERDAY’s work… finished Lesson 5 of the new Big Writing Course…
Got my fiction first TODAY — had to toss a bit of the most recent scene, came in with new words, and even came out a bit ahead. Came out with a net gain of 148 words. Not what I’d hoped for, but I’m glad to be getting fiction. And the RETHINK part of the…

Secret Big Class: Day 2
Today’s objective was 1000 words on Ohio 4, and both starting and finishing Secret Writing Class Worksheet #1. It always amazes me how much harder it is to build a worksheet than to write the actual lesson it supports. It also amazes me that I forget this fact. I decided to do the worksheet before…

Tueday: 1080, and a nice bit of twisting things
I’m pleased with today’s words. I got to go deeper on one important series character, and I managed to frustrate my MC with this guy at the same time that I got to know him better. Always fun. Going to work for a while now on the OTHER PROJECT, which is nonfiction, and which shall…

So… TODAY was epic…
Still working from my line-for-scene outline, today the scene i started yesterday just took off. I now have 9245 words done on the first draft. I got 1432 words today, AND discovered the thing I needed to see, and it was completely different than I’d been imagining… but I love it so much. Some days…

Good writing day. Not epic, but…
Not every day CAN be epic. I had to do something hard thinking, and some outlining, and some worldbuilding, and none of that stuff counts as words. But it’s all essential. However, the part I got, I love. So now I have to go out into the world and DO STUFF. •·.·´`·.·•·.·´`·.·•·.·´`·.·•·.·´`·.·• My daily words…
