    ☞ finish my handwritten romantasy project,
    ☞ participate in the #24hrnovel,
    ☞ start a little travel log
    ☞ and continue my line-a-day journal.

    What a lovely way to start Monday morning! Oh I love the Dream Guy!!!! Kate, you sound so energetic and inspired this morning. That's good. Send some through the screen, please. *laughing* Don't worry, I'm still caffeinating. Love you!

    I'm brainstorming a new story, and I have the goal of writing at least the majority of the first draft by hand. I like to switch between handwritten and typed when I'm struggling with a scene, since the change makes my brain work differently.

    I’m doing my best to finish an outline through the month of June so I can spend the back half of the year drafting! Outlining is new for me and on a full high fantasy project, it’s a bit overwhelming but 🤷🏻‍♀️ we’ll see what happens! How many words? No clue but at least a full save the cat beat sheet and a partial for the second POV

  • @LinaAshaybith1029

    Seeing as I’m returning from a whole month of not writing after fighting through a camp nano slump, I think I‘ll not set any goals or pressure on myself. Write when it feels good, write what speaks to me in the moment, gather energy for camp nano next month 🎉 might amount to under 10000 words but hey, progress is progress 😂 I‘d rather see some development on the cover art/professional editing front for my most developed book 🙈

      Thank youuu! And yes, do join. I think it could work wonders for editing too. Gives you something fun to look forward to since editing tends to take so long, too! (Or maybe just for me, lol.) Counting by the hours of a challenge makes it a little more fun!

    It would be cool for you to link your travelogue to your various writing projects at some point.
    I'm mostly taking the summer off from formal plans. Giving myself the opportunity to chase adventures be they creative or otherwise. Still loosely writing on my writing days but entirely without any goals. It's been fun to see where inspiration takes me.

    It's so inspiring to see you so eager about so many projects! I would like to get the majority of my romance book written (previously called Soul Bound but I changed the premise so that no longer works) this month, just because I've been steadily working on it, generally during your streams! I've been keeping track of my wordcount like a nerd, and last month I got 15,155 words in 497 minutes spread over 7 tracked days (I spent a lot of time off and doing other projects LMAO). Hopefully this month I'll beat that!

    My big goal for November is to start the rough draft of book 3 in my Soap Opera series. In order to do that, I want to have Book 2 read by Beta readers. I had an alpha reader, and they had valuable insight.
    So for June, I want to start draft 3 of Book 2, so for July Camp, I can finish the draft. Then, I can start outlining book 3, where some stuff goes down.
    Have a fun and safe trip.
