Wednesday – Writing Update

I have been working on this page and linking all my social media together with like names (Wendy Crafton Writes). I also set up a schedule for posting, blogging, and sharing. I am sorry to say I have not written. I was going to say I have not written much, but I have not writtenContinue reading “Wednesday – Writing Update”

Rules of Engagement

Hello 2021! We have been waiting for you! New Year’s resolutions are not my thing. I have never been one to start “anew” with the new year. I do however try to be outside in the open air when the new year rolls in. As I stood outside last night, I listened for any signContinue reading “Rules of Engagement”

I had planned to continue my draft for “Symbiosis” which already had about 21.5k words from the 2015 NaNo. I had started to pull my ideas together in October but choosing a starting (or restarting) point was far harder than expected.

(womp, womp) LaptopContinue reading “The Order of Things and Upcoming NaNo Prep”

Thoughts on Camp Nano and My Final Word Count

Camp NaNoWriMo ended 7/31/2020. I stopped writing somewhere around day 10. Yep, day 10. While this is far shorter than the 30 days given to meet my 15k goal, I managed to write 7k works in 10 days or less. Pretty nifty. This was my first Camp NaNoWriMo. I was not sure what to expect.Continue reading “Thoughts on Camp Nano and My Final Word Count”
