Tonight is the last night of my DIY writing retreat - I check out straight after breakfast and travel back to the "real world" via a series of trains.
Since Thursday, I have:
Since Thursday, I have:
- Typed up what I have so far of the novel outline, complete with big ALL CAPS TBD MARKERS where everything is still up in the air
- (Then filled in a couple of TBD sections slightly - though the middle still has a lot in)
- Written through the opening and a couple of key transitions with a low, low quality filter (important for getting the words out)
- Written some lists to generate ideas for stuff to fill in the TBDs
- Come up with a sketch of some secondary characters who might exist in the space of the TBDs
- Been for several walks
- Read a book from the shelf in the lounge (Colonel Barker's Monstrous Regiment by Rose Collis)
- Listened to some Death of 1000 Cuts
- Contributed about 6 pieces to the fiendish Rosetta Stone jigsaw that another resident is working on (he started it NINE DAYS AGO and has been working on it a few hours every day! it's so hard!)
- Signed up for an in-person writing meetup next weekend
- Not thought about work even once (except for writing this sentence)
