<–The State of the Writer: 3/11/18 The State of the Writer: 4/8/18–>
A biweekly post updated every Sunday discussing my current writing projects and any completed the prior two weeks.
Finished Projects: 2
- Book Review: Never Never by Colleen Hoover & Tarryn Fisher – 3/12/18
- Book Review: The Archived by Victoria Schwab – 3/24/18
Project: Story
Title: The Broken Rose
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Type: Fanfiction (FFVII) Novel
Current Word Count: 261,564
Prior Word Count: 261,397
Word Difference: +164
Status: Revising
Progress: Editing Chapter 3
No source on this lovely line drawing, mores the pity, but neither of my source sites are yielding any hits.
I’m about halfway through the revision/reedit of Chapter 3. I was even up until around 4:00 last night working on it (and probably contributed to me passing out this afternoon), so editing marches on.
Project: Story Audio Recording
Title: Northern Lights
Genre: Paranormal Romance
Type: Fanfiction (FFVII) Novel
Status: Prepping
Progress: Editing Chapter 1
So I’m essentially editing another story, since I obviously can’t do any kind of audio recording if the “script” (as it were) isn’t up to date. It always amazes me how much one’s writing can evolve over a short period of time. I wrote/edited Northern Lights only around two years ago, but I’m finding and fixing some pretty clunky parts. What’s funny is I did a recording of the full chapter and liked it (at the time), but when it comes to writing there’s always room for improvement, and I doubt any writer’s ever satisfied. It’s still better than rereading things I wrote a decade ago *shudder* It’s probably better right now since my voice has still been a problem, but I have honey and lemon to put in my tea, so I suppose there’s hope.
In Progress
- Games Alive – I am so close to finishing the list of favorite games per year since I was born. I believe I’m in the ’10’s now or very close to it. I’m hoping for one more session to write and one more to edit and post.
Rough weekend. I spent most of it sleeping due to fatigue, and I didn’t get a great deal of what I wanted to accomplish done. Now to attempt to catch up before it’s time to get ready for work tomorrow.
What creative stuff are you working on? Let’s discuss in the comments!

Searching to credit an art source is honorable, and frustrating when you can’t find one. So the best you can do here is credit “AT”. ❤

I really do try! I know if I were an artist, I’d want that. What does “AT” stand for? I don’t think I’ve heard of that abbreviation.

Oh, those are the initials near the bottom of the drawing — the artist’s, I would guess.

Sorry you had such a rough weekend! Hopefully the rest of the week will treat you better. ❤
You're so right about how insanely different a person's writing can become over a short period of time. I think that's one of the fun things about writing. It's always challenging, and you're always growing as a writer. 🙂
