Writing Wednesday: What to Write?

Last week’s goals: Posted my own blog on schedule, and managed to comment sufficiently on others. I didn’t have time to explore Literarium properly last week, but my available stories are all out to market for the time being. Hopefully I’ll understand how to use the site better when I get my next return. In … Continue reading →

Writing Wednesday: Editing Dilemma

Last week’s goals: Posting continues as it should, both my own and commenting on others. Using Literarium is a mixed bag for me – it’s definitely helpful at locating appropriate markets for my individual stories (so most of my current six are submitted), although the markets aren’t always open when Literarium says they are. The … Continue reading →

Writing Wednesday: Why I Read

Writing Wednesday: Retooling and Rethinking

Last week’s goals: Three blog posts made, and posted at least three comments on others’ blogs. Stories rotating in and out of market as they and the markets are available. I produced 1,731 words of fiction – not as many words as last week, but pleased with myself for increasing the number of days I … Continue reading →
