Thursday Night Update, A Bit Late
Jun. 5th, 2009 12:04 amA pretty good day today. I wrote, I banged a story into final shape for submission (to a magazine in the UK, as it happens). Probably won't hear anything for a couple of months, but that's okay. After all, my job is to get a story out every week. So that's taken care of for this week. Tomorrow's word count is gravy for this week; I can try to get a jump on next week.
The timed writing intervals continue to enable me to produce fiction even when I'm not feeling confident in my ability to do so, or motivated. That's good to know. I don't plan to write a lot this weekend--but I want to try to hammer out some short story plots, for the practice if nothing else. If they actually turn into finished stories eventually, even better.
