Write Every Day: Day 1

[the_siobhan]

Welcome to Write Every Day, June edition.

I tend to do my writing at end of day, so I'm usually adding my updates for the day prior. However you do it is fine, but please post your comment to the most recent entry and add the date so it's easier for my date-adverse brain to keep organized.

Feel free to talk about your goals for this month. I have a couple of short stories in progress, and if I can I would like to get at least one of them finished.

You are very welcome! Actually writing every day is pretty much my goal too

Well done on your writing! I may have mentioned this before but for some reason I find that longhand can be easier when I'm trying to get past writer's block - it's like it taps into a different part of my brain or something. I should do it more often.

Yes, longhand is my (not so) secret writer's block trick, too! For me, it more focuses my mind: there I am with my notebook, no internet, no ability to edit, and no distractions but what I can see out the window. And so my choices are to look out the window or work out what happens next in the story -- and shocker of shockers, I often work out what comes next while looking out the window!

Also, I just like my handwriting. I enjoy the physical sensation of laying the words down and looking at them, when I'm writing longhand. :-D
