Hi everyone. Big weekend, bigger than expected- so not writing for a few days. In any case, back to it on Monday morning. If anything a short break from wriing has given my brain time to foresee the ending of my short story, so now I know where it’s going. Exciting to figure out how to get there. Also, and I’m very lucky, got a very short extension to complete and submit, so very much thankful to a great editor. :-D
Write well!

Under the pump to get this short story finished today. Things is I’m working all day, and a social event tonight, so it’ll be tight. But squeezing out bits and pieces across the day then stringing it together after I get home will work well enough to submit midnight tonight. There’s a fill editing process after that so it doesn’t need to be 100. Either way, I’ll get it done.

How do you go about meeting writing deadlines?

Back here writing again this morning. It was hard to sit and start, my sleepy mind against the idea of divising narrative, but the coffee helps.

Still on my current short story. Also still stuck, but it’s better than a few days ago, a couple scenes reduced into one, and moving right along in about 350 words instead of 1000.

I’m not yet excited about it, meaning I can’t expect my reader to be excited. It’ll spark soon :blobwizard:

I’m hear before the day has properly started writing, so that’s good. As some of you say, this is the way. I’m very stuck with my current short story. I love the start and first few scenes, a lot, but now don’t know where it’s going, so am questioning everything. But it’s due in two days, so just pushing through, see where it’ll take me. Hopefully just writing will unlock the way forward. Sometimes that works.
