Writing Hell 3.1

Happy March! The month of green, I think (because it is the color that I think of when I think March).

After a month without this, let's get back to work! Writing Hell, March first, 2012.  This time, I plan on posting every day.  I've gotten really bad.

So, this Writing Hell will last for 5 days.  In those 5 days, I plan to write a total of 15k. 3k a day.  I plan on not dying, even though I do have a research project to start writing too.



Excerpt from ENIGMA:



Starting word count: 3952
Ending word count: (expected) 6952

Happy Leap Day!

Today is a kinda sad day. It is the last day inkpop will be around, and I was only 9 days away from my 2 year anniversary!  Ah well, I guess I'll have to live.

But I think, at the moment, my writing's taken a big hit. I've always wanted to receive a review from HC, which was a pretty strong motivation to get things done, but now it's just like ... two more years until it is recommended that I can query (darn me for being so young, and agents wanting 17+ older query-ies if that's even a word). So, for now, I'll just try to finish my current works and see about

  • editing them
  • finishing a series
  • and creating a writing/critique circle. You know, in published books, the author's always thanking a handful of people who helped critique the work? I wanna be in one of those. :o
And, I have no clue if I'll let people read my projects again. A handful of people who I email a lot, yes, but I don't know what else I'll do. (Speaking of which, I should email my friends the first chapter of Enigma  (Smolder rewrite)...)

Now I shall get to writing and help my mother make dinner. Happy Leap Day, and I hope all of you inkpoppers go far with your writing (same to everyone, too)! (And inkpoppers who need/want to contact me, I'm on wattpad.)
