Ive have tried to write a page nearly everyday before when i have a break, all into a large refil pad notes and story plot, i must admit it seems to work when i have the motive to write down stuff. im hoping that by using this pad up i will have created a rough layout to a good story and then use it as a guide line of information.nondisclosed_email@example.com (Wayward Watcher)Wed, 06 Jun 2007 11:24:13 +0000 Re: How is everyone's writing going?https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221570,from=rss#post221570https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221570,from=rss#post221570quote:How is everyone's writing going?Going?nondisclosed_email@example.com (thepinksuicidallemming)Tue, 05 Jun 2007 13:00:28 +0000 Re: How is everyone's writing going?https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221569,from=rss#post221569https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221569,from=rss#post221569Great!nondisclosed_email@example.com (tryingtowrite)Tue, 05 Jun 2007 12:44:03 +0000 Re: How is everyone's writing going?https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221568,from=rss#post221568https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221568,from=rss#post221568Yay!

The TV was on and that always makes it a little harder but I'm going to try for 500 words a day, at least.nondisclosed_email@example.com (hadaad)Tue, 05 Jun 2007 05:22:21 +0000 Re: How is everyone's writing going?https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221565,from=rss#post221565https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221565,from=rss#post221565Sounds like most everyone is having a hard time writing.

Well, the trick is just to make the kids story INTO that "riveting adventure story" that you like so much. Then it's interesting to write!nondisclosed_email@example.com (Reythia)Mon, 04 Jun 2007 19:16:44 +0000 Re: How is everyone's writing going?https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221561,from=rss#post221561https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221561,from=rss#post221561Sounds great, Reythia. I find that for me, writing for kids is almost harder than jumping right into a riveting adventure story. Anyway, all the best for you!    nondisclosed_email@example.com (Firlefanz)Mon, 04 Jun 2007 18:58:16 +0000 Re: How is everyone's writing going?https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221559,from=rss#post221559https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221559,from=rss#post221559I got unmotivated on my long project (haven't given it up, but I needed to put it aside for a while), so I started on a shorter piece. It's a story for 8- to 12-year-olds, which makes it surprisingly easy to write, for me. Ok, so I have to watch my vocabulary and (harder for me) my sentence structure, but other than that, writing for kids is much easier. It's so much more straight-forward. And SHORT. Anyhow, I've gotten the first four chapters done in the last 1-1.5 weeks. (The basic plot is all lined up, or I wouldn't have started wriitng) So that's pretty satisfying.nondisclosed_email@example.com (Reythia)Mon, 04 Jun 2007 18:19:57 +0000 Re: How is everyone's writing going?https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221557,from=rss#post221557https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221557,from=rss#post221557Oh, no.

Not to worry, I have three or four backup copies, I just have to find them.nondisclosed_email@example.com (hadaad)Mon, 04 Jun 2007 15:12:14 +0000 Re: How is everyone's writing going?https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221552,from=rss#post221552https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221552,from=rss#post221552Nonexistent.

I had plans of immersing myself in my story to get some chapters finished but it turns out that work gets me so tired at the end of the day that I have nothing left but parenting and vegging after the kids go to bed.nondisclosed_email@example.com (hadaad)Thu, 24 May 2007 17:01:57 +0000 Re: How is everyone's writing going?https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221429,from=rss#post221429https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221429,from=rss#post221429Well you know about my story for the Dragon anthology. I'm also working on my novel, Crystals. All my other ideas are still just growing in my head or written down and need a lot of work. I'm also rewriting my novel chapter by chapter for my school. I love fresh veggies! Even though it's a lot of work.nondisclosed_email@example.com (tryingtowrite)Tue, 15 May 2007 15:27:41 +0000 Re: How is everyone's writing going?https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221428,from=rss#post221428https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221428,from=rss#post221428Ah, home grown veggies are much better than store-bought ones. (When I was a kid, we used to have a big veggie garden. Now I garden on a balcony. Heh.) So, what else are you writing? nondisclosed_email@example.com (Firlefanz)Tue, 15 May 2007 14:53:54 +0000 Re: How is everyone's writing going?https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221427,from=rss#post221427https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221427,from=rss#post221427A big one!

Two anthologies are taking my time, as well as family gatherings, invitations, and evening classes. I'm glad I got two stories edited and submitted, though. That's pretty good. What kind of garden are you planting? nondisclosed_email@example.com (Firlefanz)Tue, 15 May 2007 13:10:42 +0000 How is everyone's writing going?https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221425,from=rss#post221425https://bmysticaladventures.runboard.com/p221425,from=rss#post221425     I'm behind in my goals, what with all the fencing we are doing. It doesn't look like it'll get any better very soon either, got to put in the garden and then it's weeding. Guess I can't write if I don't have food!       Anyways enough about me!
