Updates on John’s current writing projects
As I suspected, this week wasn’t fantastic in terms of writing. Lots of stuff to do, what with it being Holy Week and all. Part of that is also because I did some brainstorming on a new book idea. That took a bit of the time I would have spent…
I’ll keep things short and simple… Iron Staff Trilogy Book 1 Current Wordcount: 32,303 words Words added this week: 4,032 words Outlook for this week: Well, it’s Holy Week, so we’ll see… END TRANSMISSION
So here we go, folks. The final edits for The Hive are in to the publisher. That can only mean one thing: Except I stink at Hungry, Hungry Hippos. So let’s talk about Book 1 of The Iron Staff trilogy. The past couple of weeks have been kind of rough…
Once again, not much progress to report. Part of this is because of edits on The Hive came in and I had to focus on those. Good news on that front: the final edits are completed and turned in. Now we wait. Rumor has it you can expect to see…
I’ll have to keep this quick. I have a few TV shows calling for my attention, like Peggy Carter, and Arrow, and gee, I almost missed the new season of Amazing Race that started tonight. But in spite of my burgeoning to-be-watched queue, I got in some decent writing this…
Not just Wordcount Wednesday, but Ash Wednesday as well. I hope you all got your ashes in church tonight. … That sounded better in my head just now. I honestly didn’t expect to make a lot of headway this week. The beginning of Lent is a very busy time for…
It’s been a while since I’ve done this. I could go through all the excuses or reasons why I haven’t done this. Part of it has been because I hit something of a dry spell in terms of writing. Part of it is because, well, video games. But in…
Two steps forward, one step back. In some ways, I think I did some good work this week. Right now, the GenShip project is at 19,777 words, meaning that I added around 4,603 words. That’s right, I said “around.” Because earlier this week, I did a little editing pass over…
Well, this week was better. I was able to chisel out a little more writing time and had some productive sessions. As of right now, the GenShip story is at 15,174 words, meaning I added 5,926 words to it over the past week. Good, but not full speed. I really…
Well, I had good intentions. I really do want to try to pound out a lot of words each week, but in this case, I think I’m proceeding cautiously to get the lay of the land. I really do like what I’m seeing. I’m having fun. I’m just doing it…
