Writing progress:
• Pulled out the second story of my novel-in-stories
• Read it
• Made lots of notes
• Really marked it up
• It could go several different ways at this point
• Now I need to sit down and type up all the revisions and really sink back into the process of writing this story. It’s not just typing up the little added notes or scenes. Those are just the doorways to let me back into the story.
• I registered for “Writing the Unthinkable” workshop with Lynda Barry in Chicago at the end of August.
• Spent a lot of time finishing up an 80-slide Powerpoint presentation. It’s almost done
Up-coming blog posts:
• Summer writing/reading goals
• the balance between writing stories and just writing to write
• the unstructured time of summer
nice progress! I’m looking forward to further posts, especially the unstructured time of summer…if I remember correctly your summer last year really took some steam out of you…I hope this isn’t the case this year and instead every day is lovely, long and loose!
C-That’s exactly what last summer did to me. Here’s to long, loose summer days that fill me up instead of draining me…
Hi Kim – sounds like you’re making great progress!
Just to let you know, I have tagged you (details are here: http://acatofimpossiblecolour.blogspot.com/2008/06/life-in-six-words.html). I know tags are a bit cringe-y, but this one was really interesting and I would love to know what you come up with – if you have time, of course 🙂
Love
Andrea
A- not sure if it’s great progress but I guess any progress is great. I love this tag. I’ve skimmed through the six word memoir site before. Now I have a reason to write one myself. Look for it later this week. Thanks!
