April 23

  • Project: Inbetween
  • Total word count: 163,964
  • Today’s word count: 193
  • Thoughts: Today was not a great writing day. I had some focus and then anxiety derailed my productivity. I need to work on making sure that doesn’t happen as often as it does.
  • Tomorrow’s goal: More writing. Less anxiety. I can do it!

April 24

  • Project: Inbetween
  • Total word count: 164,479
  • Today’s word count: 515
  • Thoughts: I wrote! I wrote through the anxiety tonight. Oh yeah… it came back. Not thrilled about that part, but I got past it and still managed to write. I’ll call that progress!
  • Tomorrow’s goal: Even more writing. I think I can do it. I did it today. I should be able to do it again tomorrow.

April 25

  • Project: Inbetween
  • Total word count: 164,999
  • Today’s word count: 520
  • Thoughts: Today was a pretty productive day! I feel like I’m making some real progress lately.
  • Tomorrow’s goal: More writing. Revising! I think I can do it!

April 26

  • Project: The Dreams
  • Total word count: 45,264
  • Today’s word count: -1

  • Project: Inbetween
  • Total word count: 165,143
  • Today’s word count: 144

  • Thoughts: Well, my word counts don’t look great, but I did get a new scene from The Dreams posted over on Patreon. I also wrote a bit of Inbetween, but my revising energy was focused on The Dreams. I should have tried to carry that energy over to Inbetween, but at the time I wanted to write. I followed my whim and managed to write a tiny bit. Maybe I would have been more successful if I had focused on revisions?
  • Tomorrow’s goal: More writing. More revising. Let’s have one of the unusually productive Fridays I’ve managed to produce recently!

April 27

  • Project: Inbetween
  • Total word count: 165,209
  • Today’s word count: 66
  • Thoughts: Typical Friday. I couldn’t settle down and focus on it. It happens. I anticipated it.
  • Tomorrow’s goal: Back to writing. More revising. I can do it. I will do it!

April 28

  • Project: Inbetween
  • Total word count: 165,324
  • Today’s word count: 115
  • Thoughts: Today was a roller coaster ride. There were a lot of ups and downs. I was thrown for a loop a time or two, but none of it resulted in me producing a lot of words. Too bad.
  • Tomorrow’s goal: More writing. More revising. I want to get this week’s chapter posted before the weekend is over!

April 29

  • Project: Inbetween
  • Total word count: 165,602
  • Today’s word count: 278
  • Thoughts: Today was a pretty productive day! I finally finished revising the chapter. I won’t post it until morning. I’m too tired to format a blog post tonight, but I’m proud of getting this done. It’s late, but I’m just happy to get it done before it ended up a whole week late. April was a good month for consistency and I’d hate to end let the month end without the fourth chapter posted.
  • Tomorrow’s goal: Blog posts! Writing! I won’t need to think about revising anything for a few days and I’m going to do my best to enjoy it.
