WEEK 4
Tues
So many things happening! And I didn’t write much.
But need to do these TO-DOs:
- book review
- outline
- blog post
- a poem
- pictures
- IG Post
Gotta at least finish something today.
Wed
though didn’t do much of yesterday….so am going to try to finish them so I can treat myself to a movie.
a f t e r l u n c h
- send those pictures
- book review
- outline
1 – 1.40pm
- read a few pages (gosh, I’m slow.)
(finished a chapter. Yay!)
4pm
- gotta do the pictures and then do the outline…argh
5.01pm
- opening the document
- while editing my IG profile (more like fiddling)
5.35pm
- actually started writing
7.06pm
- finished a good writing session 🙂
TOTAL: 161 minutes
– supposed to start work but wrote some poetry for #micromuse
9.30 – 10pm
- written poems (micro ones)
- checking out Patreon + IG + watching YouTube videos…I know insane right…
– in a lazy mood now –
taking a break and looking through YouTube, catching up with ALL the videos I’ve missed. And write more poetry.
11.21pm
time to go to bed
ohh! before I forget, need to update my Camp Nano goal
Thurs
3pm
- came back from The Lion King movie (review coming soon!)
Now feeling a bit down, and want nothing more than to rest and wonder and watch YouTube.
- started a thoughts notebook where I jot down all my thoughts and now, I feel much, much better.
3.56pm
- again, I write more poems.
Today is more of a reflect day. ALSO, got some ideas for one chapter in the shower. What is this, my fountain of ideas? Maybe.
9.41pm
- back from dinner, feel more refreshed. Time to do work so that I can be focused on my outline tomorrow.
I AM GOING TO try TO FINISH IT BEFORE I SLEEP. Send help, please!
11.20pm
- thank goodness……..I finished it.
I cannot wait for tomorrow to write an outline of the chapter. Worse thing, that all the other chapters have no titles (for now) because I need to get the scenes done in the correct order so that I can choose the chapter titles.
Fri
4.35pm
- finish editing + adding more words into the article for work.
Now, starting Project Fire. *screams*
GOAL FOR TODAY: outline more than 120 minutes
5.30pm
- currently watching Kate Cavanaugh’s latest video (her ‘I tried writing like’ videos are one of my faves.)
Woooo! Just realised that I outlined for an hour. Another hour to go!
Thoughts so far: the scenes are so much easier to write through a human’s perspective than a humanoid. I miss writing through the eyes I’m familiar with.
6.06pm
- time to focus
7.16pm
- stopped for a shower break….and I know what to write for my later scene.
TOTAL: 142 minutes…HAPPY WITH THAT
Sat
Today, am feeling under the weather. Vomited twice and can’t eat much and feeling ugh.
So decided to suck it up and write becoz I cannot go one day without writing something.
TO-DOs:
- outline
- read
- post poetry #micromuse via stories

4pm

so now eating in smaller amounts.

I didn’t see this coming but I won July Camp Nanowrimo???!
~ FINAL THOUGHTS ~
I didn’t validate Project Fire because I didn’t finish outlining it as I hoped…..so that means I didn’t officially win Camp Nano even though I reached the 2000 minutes goal.
It’s alright. I’m fine. NOW, gotta look ahead! I need to complete the outline before National Novel Writing Month starts.
The actual scariest part is that is 2 months away.
