Halfway There!

Ok, so I may have cheated a bit.

Since I’ve done the first half of the 90 Day Challenge before, I merely reread the days and skimmed over most of the assignments (not all! I redid a few). I don’t recommend this for any who have not taken the challenge before. You really should devote at least 2 hours to writing every day in order to hone in on your writing prowess.

That being said, I’ve reached the half way mark (okay, the 1/3 mark)–I have my outline!

I chose to do the note card method for outlining, and I wound up with 44 cards, er, scenes. Needless to say, after working on this for the past 24 hours, I am as proud as a bald eagle!

 

Here and there, I may have to add a card or two as I start fleshing it out, but for now, I am content.

I feel a little guilty after I told you all that I would be posting about something for every day’s worth of the 90 Days, but I figured that would infringe on the copyright of the book. So, I did my work (albeit unorthodoxly) and now I can show you all the fruits of my labor.

Every time I log onto my computer, I think about finding newer writing material to share with you guys, but I always get distracted (darn you, Facebook and Pinterest!) BUT! I’m on a role right now, and as soon as this post it finished, I’ll fire up my awesome StumbleUpon–my writing assignment and idea searcher-outer–and get right on it and load up my reference page with all sorts of things. At least, I’ll try to.

I’ll send out a post whenever I’ve added stuff so you know when there’s anything new.

Thanks for reading!

Beginning the 90 Day Challenge

Starting tomorrow, I am going to set aside time each day to do the 90 Day Challenge from the book 90 Days to Your Novel by Sarah Domet (there is a link to this book’s amazon buy page in my Recommended Readings page). I plan on posting a little bit about my thoughts regarding the 90 Day Challenge be it good things or confusing things or things that just don’t make sense in case you all decide to follow along and partake of the Challenge with me.

Just so you know, the book I will be working on will be The Blight–a manuscript that I’ve been working on for roughly 7 years (this is the spawn of my first ever book plot).

Would you join in on the 90 Day Challenge with me?

May your pens (or keyboards) serve you well! Thanks for reading!
