Re: I Wrote Today!
Jox: *hugs*
You're not annoying me at all! You definitely making me think, and that is a good thing.
Tapping can be extremely simple. But depending on what your goals are, it can get complicated - and trauma is always on my mind... it is easy to trigger someone with tapping.
Now, I wouldn't mind tapping rounds on how to deal with a bee sting, or a stubbed toe, or a simple headache. Those are basic. Kid stuff, and good to know.
But as soon as you get into mindset stuff, it can get quite complicated. You never know how symptoms of abuse or other traumas manifest. And even a car accident can be bad enough to trigger panic attacs years later. I've seen things like that in my practice, and that's fine because I'm there and can help. And I took a class for trauma work because of this.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
I've been writing every day, although not a lot. But I want to keep that habit, because getting the word count is easier than creating the habit of doing it at all.

Re: I Wrote Today!
I added 148 words to "Beyond the Window" before going to bed (still no names). The man has been driven out of the house for now. The Fairy is wondering why she has feelings for a human child.

Re: I Wrote Today!
Yay!
Just before going to bed, I wrote 250 words for my paranormal romance - because I wanted to be able to post that in my own FB group. 15 days of writing every day.
Reward systems are a strange thing, but they do work...

Re: I Wrote Today!
Firle, your comment caused me to wonder so I did a "Google" and they came back telling me I have written every day for 443 days!

Re: I Wrote Today!
240 words in another bedtime spurt.
Yes, it's words. And they are good, they flowed, it was easy.
But why can't I do more of that? *grumbles at herself*

Re: I Wrote Today!
Today was exhausting. I added 102 words to Transit Promises tonight then realized I was using the wrong name for one of my characters! While fixing the name problem, I figured out the answer to Kenneth's dilemma. I am another step closer to finalizing the design of Exodus II.

Re: I Wrote Today!
*hugs* You're doing well.
Sometimes, the story bites us - good to notice the wrong name, and to find a solution. That doesn't always translate into words, but it is very much progress.
Another bedtime spurt, and I'm pondering adding another obstacle for my heroine.

Re: I Wrote Today!
I added 190 words to "Transit Promises" today.
-----
Maja shouted over to the group. “Ladies and Gentlemen! I’m giving you one minute to sit down to eat. After which time all of the Buchteln are mine!” To prove her threat was real, she grabbed one of the sweet rolls off the service tray and stuffed the whole thing into her mouth.

Re: I Wrote Today!
So funny that you're using Buchteln!
(That is a regional specialty, not even every German will know what they are.)
Well done on the writing.
I've written every day the last week, even if I only get 250 words most of the time.

I initially had Baklava instead of Buchtein but changed it because the characters are on the border between Germany and Austria. Then I added the "sweet roll" comment for those who don't know what it is.

Thank you.
The total word count sneaks up on you when "slow writing." I look forward to the time I have a couple of days with "real writing time blocks" in them.

Re: I Wrote Today!
Rick: Well done! Self-care is important.
Jox: Wohooo!
I wrote a tiny bit for my paranormal romance. Disgusted at lack of word count which is entirely my own fault (wasting so much time!), but at least it's progress.

Re: I Wrote Today!
I got the very basic scene outline done for my story. I'm not sure why I was procrastinating so badly because I knew almost everything. The hardest part was figuring out how it all tied together. Now I have to decide if I should add more details to the outline or just start writing. Hmm...
--- I'd procrastinate now, but it would be easier tomorrow.

Well done! Because you remembered and wrote.
I'm wrestling a bear of resistance. Had an interesting "drea" about that last night.

Re: I Wrote Today!
Did you chop or add words to FT?
Yay for writing, but I'm sorry to hear you're sick.
In my paranormal romance, the god has spoken. I will have to edit that scene.

Re: I Wrote Today!
*sending more hugs*
Well done. And yes, bed is a good idea when you're this sick. Did you catch the flu? Sudden high fever, and total exhaustion?
If so, take extra care to regain your strength.
