I'll Pencil You In

So excluding this blog, I have written zero words in the past two weeks. For me that is a tough pill to swallow. As a writer or aspiring writer, this is not acceptable and really, I should be writing much more. To help remedy this, I'm hoping to get more done this week.

First, Spirit Hackers needs to get its butt in gear. I cliff hanged a chapter and I need to write the next scene. I think part of the problem is that I don't know what I want the next scene to be. I did my best thinking about the story in my usual spot: the shower. For some reason I get some great ideas while gettin' clean.

Second, I really want to get a submission written and sent over to Stephanie for The Oddville Press. I figure that if I put out a call for submissions, I should get something submitted myself.

Additionally, Creative A posted this great publication that looks for people to write short stories based on a given first line. I think this is a great idea and I want to get something to them as well.

Overall, I think that can make my week pretty busy. Stack a personal life and work on top of that mix and I assure you my time will be well spent!
