I am really glad I decided not to try a Camp Nano for July. This past week as been INSANE.
I work from 1 am to 10 am now- yup, smack in the middle of the night- so it’s more like I have FOURTEEN 12-hour days in a week, broken up by 1-3 cute little hours of sleep.
Yeah, it’s been an adjustment.
I think I’m going to like it, but it’s gonna take some work. Obviously, the writing has suffered a little bit, but I don’t feel bad, because EVERYTHING is suffering this week, so it’s all good.
I’m so glad I decided to take a 3 day vacation this week.
Rain’s story
Updates; Got my Beta to the messiesst of all the scenes, in my opinion. I think it’s going well, but I can see I’ll have a lot of work ahead of me when I come back through. But it’s a lot cleaner than I thought it was, which is nice.
Current Progress: COMPLETED! Undergoing it’s first round of edits.
Ultimate Goal: Publication, self or trad, but a legit book for sure. It’s not got the same structuring issues that make Asylum weblit
Setbacks: TITLE!!! Distracted by other projects at times. Don’t want to finish cause then I have to query it and that’s scary. 😛
Asylum
Current Progress: …halted, while I learn the fine art of editing on Rain’s story
Ultimate Goal: Web-serial, and rivaling fan clubs for Seth and Kain (maybe even Team shirts?)
Setbacks: can’t move forward, we’ve lost the characters mindsets, but don’t want to start editing it just yet, because… I’m scared?
Misc.
Current Progress: Miri’s story is BOOKIN’ IT towards its finish line, other side projects are more or less on halt
Ultimate Goal: more Web-lit probably, but maybe some traditional pub going on in there to, self or otherwise
Setbacks: well, there’s an EPIC CRAP TON of side projects, and a lot of them need us to progress Asylum first.

I’m just working ONE job and struggling on keeping up on the small handful of projects I’ve got going… I can’t imagine how you are managing all that work, a multitude of writing projects, and a social life.

Social life? What’s that? 😛

It’s that thing that isn’t quite an obligation, and makes you feel guilty for feeling like it is sometimes — what takes a three day weekend and keeps you from getting anything done other than in hours otherwise allotted to sleep 🙂
Also, usually totally worth it.

Oh yeah, those…
Lucky for me, most my friends are fairly anti-social, so we only like to hang out about once a week, if that 😛

Scheduled weekly socialness, and then maybe once a month with the other friends. But family… family is far less predictable!

that is why i live far enough away from family that i only see them on purpose.

Eh, after 10 years of being 3,000 miles from them I enjoy the time I get. I just want to learn to clone myself so I can see them AND get my writing done. 🙂

God- copy me on that memo when you unlock the secret 😛

My teleporter needs to be made first… think that’s slightly higher priority than the clone.. of course, if I figured out a clone then I could make one to … learn how to actually do math and science and work on that teleporter.. hm…

*nods* cloning, that’s definitely where it’s at

I have yet to get clones. How sweet that would be, but we’d all want to write and not do the other stuff. I work 3rd as I’ve mentioned before so I FEEL you truly. When you start to query, feel free to give me a shout. We’re trying to help Taylor with her stuff right now. You’ve got support. Just gotta reach out and ask. It isn’t that scary really. More frustrating than scary.

I’ll stick with scary for now, like asking a girl to prom scary. I think they emotional risk and the payout are about equal in both cases. 😛
