The November Project - Days 7-10

I have returned, to the world of blogging anyway. You should be please to note though that this does not mean that I have not been writing these past few days, because I most certainly have. Given that I am away from Friday - Sunday this week I knew I had to write some extra pages this week to make up for this and to not leave me much catch up work next week. Thankfully I have managed this through two good sessions on Monday and today, with a more difficult slog yesterday.
.
As I'm learning that's just how this goes sometimes, when you sit down on some days the words will just flow, on others you just question your ability to string words together in a way that is anything other than an affront to the written word itself.
.
So at this stage I am well ahead of plan, and just one page short of where I would have been by Monday which puts me in great stead to keep up next week in the same fashion that I have managed so far. I will also endeavour to remember to post a quick update here each day as well rather than these summaries, but I make no promises.
.
So I bid you farewell until Monday.

The November Project - Days 5 and 6

A bit of a late double update from the weekend so apologies for the delay. I managed to get quite a bit done this weekend which was good, including re-writing a scene from Friday, which may be slightly counter productive given my challenge but the scene needed to go so I was glad for the change.
.
Overall I managed 10 pages over the weekend which puts me still ahead of schedule and in good stead for the week ahead, but given my absence from Friday to Sunday I will still need to do more than my set amount through the week to avoid having to play catch up next week. 
.
Wish me luck.

The November Project - Day 4

A quick end of the week update for you, I managed to get another three pages done tonight. I have to confess to being pretty burnt out and not making it four, but I had also reached a natural end point of a scene so am happy to leave an extra page or two for the weekend.
.
It was a bit more of a chore to get to it today, once I was done procrastinating all I could though I still managed it which I was pleased with. Some end of week burn-out meant that it probably wasn't my best work, but that's not really what this month is about.
.
So I go into the weekend still in good shape and with plans to do a few more pages than normal seeing as I have a pretty quiet couple of days lined up, which should leave me in good stead for next week.
.
So until then, I'll bid you farewell.

The November Project - Days 2 and 3

Hello again, just another quick update on my progress. I know I said I'd update every day (and I will endeavour too) but I had no time at home yesterday so have consolidated it with today. I did however manage 2 pages early in the morning yesterday, and a full 4 today which keeps me ahead of schedule thanks to my slight headstart but it's nice to keep that buffer as I'm sure there will be more days this month that will work out much like yesterday.
.
It was somewhat tough going today to sit down and get going but once I did the words came pretty quickly and I can already see the benefits of booking out regular time focus on a task such as this. So there's still a long way to go, but I'm at 18 pages now and looking forward to continuing tomorrow.

The November Project - Day 1

Is it November already? Well seeing as I've signed myself up doing this writing challenge I pretty much have to through with it now. Day 1 has been good though in all seriousness, I will confess I am not starting my script completely from scratch I had approx. 10 rough pages written from a little while ago that I am building on, which gives me a bit of a cushion that I'm sure I will need through the month. For today though I re-familiarised myself with what I had done, changed a few bits (but no real editing, that comes next month!) then continued it on until I reached just past 12 pages. 
.
So only a couple of new pages written but it puts me on a nice even number in terms of the challenge and has got me back up to speed with what I was doing. Now I already know I am out for pretty much all of tomorrow evening (planning is evidently not my strong suit) so I will endeavour to get some early morning writing done to at least continue things, I will of course post an update here regardless of how successful this is.
.
So a good start and generally it just feels good to get going with this and getting down to actually writing. I'm sure I will struggle along the way, but as of now I'm feeling quite good about the whole thing.
.
It'll never last.
