Writers Bureau Assignments

Goals for April got a great productivity boost thanks to a nice break from work. Over last few days, I finished and submitted, writers bureau assignment F5, F6 and F7.

I have already received F5 and F6 back, with positive comments, though both had one significant problem where I dumped back story in the beginning. Obviously, didn't notice it when I was writing it. But once the tutor pointed it out, it's pretty obvious.

So now, re-writing and finding places to shove those back stories somewhere.

It's a shame my fiction section is coming to an end. I am really enjoying the fiction part. That's the reason why I have done all the assignments rather speedily. I have a feeling that once I get to non-fiction, my assignments submission speed will not be as good as it is now.

Finally a post after days of writing

I was on a self-imposed ban from posting anything on this blog, until I had at least finished some of my writing goals. I am happy to say that this easter break has been productive, though not as much as I would like, but then my task lists are always unrealistically long. Still, overall, I know by the time I am forced to give up my wonderful night shift of writing and have to get up at times that I currently go to bed at, I will have the contentment that I always get after productive writing sessions.

So what's finished:

• Writers Bureau Assignment 5, completed and sent
• Novella plotted, outlined
• Skeleton draft of Novella completed

Other things in progress:

• Edit of a short story
• Research on various aspects of writing, market research
• Reviewing information for WIP novels to do a proper outline before doing any further haphazard writing
