Writing Goal for the Day?

Why I failed to write today.

The fishing was good. Limited in 2 hours. Wonderful afternoon. Twenty minutes from home.

5,000 words written to Dirk Hessian's "Constantinople" today on top of watching what there was of the men's final at the French Tennis Open and putting on the dog at an expensive resort hotel restaurant for dinner. A cruise on Seneca Lake tomorrow, but hopes are high for at least half of another chapter written.
 
I think I did it! Last night, somewhere around midnight, after watching Julie Taymor's "Across the Universe," I believe I finished R&B. Draft mode, of course, but I did it! Can't post yet -- my beta reader can't look it over until next weekend, but that leaves me lots of time to second-guess myself and tweak things. :rolleyes:
 
I'm going to try and edit at least half of that chapter for my fellow author. Don't know if I'll get it done or not...
 
More plot outling, more character creations, more redheads searching for a thunderbirds nest.

Yay! That calls for a margarita!

And then a second one, cuz I finally submitted a new story last night! It's a short story I'm calling Alejandro's Song; a romance with a little bit of Dom/sub play. I put it in Romance cuz I don't think it's hardcore enough for BDSM.

Now I'm trying to find my groove for that much requested sequel to HTSL.

Congratulations!! :D :D :D
 
Get the finale whipping/sex scene done for Chapter 3 of the magister. Now off to do some quality research on my lit bookmakrs folder... :p
 
Thanks, Syd and RHF :) It feels good to have it done. Just waiting for feedback now, like I said. Forgot the margarita, though. ;)

Plenty of things in the queue, both original and stories that need fixing. Not sure what to do next. Although with Game of Thrones and the Stanley Cup Finals over, I'm hoping I get more writing time.
 
You're very welcome. :)

I submitted a story last night. It's short and sweet, and hot (so says the great estragon). :D

I have had a lot of kids milling about and a lot on my mind emotionally so my muse is showing up in spurts. I have an audio story to do, but that's really hard with the kids about, so I may have to wait till August, when they go back to school. Which is fine. It'll be done way before Survivor is over.

Part 3 of the novel is in editing and then I'll need to wrap it up. It's drawing to the end as well. Then I'll decide what I want to do with it in regards to publication.

I think it may be time to write a romance story for the romance category.
 
With luck I'll finish writing the next-to-last chapter of Dirk Hessian's Contstantinople today. Other than a movie, it's a down day, as choppy water and an all-day rainstorm have descended on Seneca Lake. Yesterday out on the lake in the Schooner featured in Grace Kelly's last movie, High Society, was very nice indeed--so only 2,000 words written yesterday. Did fit in a visit to the (standalone, octagonal) study where Mark Twain wrote most of his books and "getting-bloato" visits to wineries.

ESTRAGONS idea of hot is his old grannys peach fuzz cheek.
 
Out on the winery trail all day. Just hope I won't be too blotto when I return to the lake house to write the last chapter of Dirk Hessian's GM novella Constantinople.
 
Submitted my first incest story since Christmas, last night. I always try to do something a little different and for this one I decided to add a little "reality" to the story.

When the mother discovers her son is fantasizing about having sex with her she....Throws his ass in counseling!

Of course she ends up seeing the error of her ways or there wouldn't be a damn story now would there be?
 
I'll regret it in the morning (because I have to be up at 0730), but I stayed up til 2 am and finished drafting Dirk Hessian's GM novella, "Constantinople." Now, if I'm able to think at all when we get home from the next New York Finger Lakes country winery run tomorrow, I'll start formating and reviewing it.
 
After a very unproductive week, I would like to get a page or two finished on chapter 3 of New Life in a New World.
 
I'm going to try to finish editing for someone; I feel bad it went by the wayside a I was working on my own story. Then on to the summer story, I think.

Optimistic plans for someone with two kids home now, as PennBoy's done for the summer.
 
Work, 22 days. I week impromptu vacation. Now I'm back at work.

No writing but I feel so much better. Sun, surf, white sand, no internet or cell phone signal. So nice.

:D
 
Skipped out early from work, so tired of upper management meetings in which they just speak to hear themselves talk.

Plot and character building today, perhaps a picture-inspired story or two, too.

I value his opinion or I wouldn't ask him to edit some of my work. Others have agreed with him as has my troll who has given it the customary 1 bomb from the starting gate so I guess lots of folks like peach fuzzy cheeks. :D
