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
get ready to post on IG tomorrow morning

4pm

started outlining

4.41pm

doing research on local titles

5 – 5.30pm

had my second lunch since the stomach is weak + needs more time to digest

so now eating in smaller amounts.

REMINDERS:

2 movie reviews + 1 book review
post ‘Celebration Saturday’

7.21pm

doing mundane stuff

10.09pm

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.

When life gets in the way of writing // Week 4-5 of Camp Nanowrimo + I made a decision to not…
