Progress Check
Slow and steady. I’m making my word count goals by working on multiple projects at once. As soon as I get stuck on one thing, I flip to something else and write that instead. Short attention span life hack – using one project to procrastinate on another. I’m trying really hard to stay in writer…

Reading Assignment
This week’s lessons included: Writing with Maggie Stievater 2020 (Character V and Point of View), Mary Adkins’s 10,000 Word Challenge (and her podcast), and Jim Butcher’s Grave Peril. There’s an interesting overlap between Maggie’s process and Mary’s, which was unexpected because Maggie seems to be very much a planner (even if it starts off all…

Tarot Tuesday
Tarot Tuesday I woke up with a massive headache that lasted basically all day today, so I almost skipped this week’s spread. As it is, I’m keeping it to a simple 3 card draw. I pulled the Knight of Swords, which is an action card. It says I should get moving and not wait for…

Weekly Goals
This week I’m adding another challenge… because somehow I get more done if I have more to do. Don’t ask me how it works. It’s probably something to do with deadlines and procrastination. I need a certain amount of stress to make it seem like there’s consequences. Even if they’re all made up. So, I’m…

Here’s what I tried: Because Amazon is finally doing a marketing push for Vella with a week…

In the interest of moving forward without worrying about catching up, this week I’m kind of bouncing around. I didn’t quite review all of Unit 1 from the Herbal Course. I didn’t really write all of the episodes of my Vella that didn’t get written last week. But I did some of both of those…

Progress Check
Ok.So.Ok. I didn’t meet any of my goals this week. Because COVID, obviously. But also because I went ahead and let the fact that I’m not getting much external validation from strangers dictate how I feel about my skills. Which is stupid. People aren’t reading my work because I’m bad at marketing. Not because I’m…
