Villains - Update #10 · 2:04am Oct 30th, 2014

Woo! Progress, baby! Hells ya!

Going back and looking over what I have so far has given me a bigger picture of the story as a whole, which is so important. It's really cool, because I can criticize myself and see how far I've come, and what I've learned since I wrote the drafts.

Villains - Update # 9 · 12:52am Sep 14th, 2014

I've been meaning to make this post a while, but as we all know by now I'm lazy as hell. I've finished the first drafts. The whole thing. I finished it in August, but here's where things get tricky again.

Revision.

Villains - Update #8 · 10:11pm Apr 4th, 2014

Even if it takes forever, I swear, I'm finishing this story (series of stories ... whatever).

The goal has become to finish writing everything by July 1st, and to revise at least 3 chapters by then. After that, I'll send the chapters I've revised to somebody willing to give them a good look over, and the rest will be edited completely by the end of the summer!

Seems like a long way away, but I'm glad the end's in sight, as much as I love this mess of a story!

Villains - Update #7 · 2:43am Dec 31st, 2013

Whoops ... has it really been over a month since I said a word on this site? Sorry about that, heh heh ...

Well, anyway, I'm still chugging along. Never as fast as I'd like (as it's hard to keep up with the strict 1667 words per day I did back in NaPoWrMo), but coming just the same. I figure I'll need a new editor soon so I can get this story out (finally), and get it finished once and for all.

So, yes, I haven't stopped writing Villains (for the .5 of you who care).

Rough Copy: #6 - Good Enough/ When You're "Ready" · 2:21am Nov 12th, 2013

Maybe I'm just looking too far ahead. Maybe I should focus on the little steps I have to take right now.

But, I can say that all I want, and it doesn't change the fact that I'm scared.

Rough Copy: #5 - CONSTANT KNOWLEDGE?! · 2:52am Nov 1st, 2013

Okay, so, being a young up-and-coming, I'm always learning new things about the craft. I'm gonna go ahead and guess that doesn't stop anytime soon, huh?

Well, that's kind of fantastic, right? Us writers are always looking for new ways to improve our nonsense.

Wait, what's going on with Wing Nut?

Yeah, okay, I admit it, I didn't keep up with my writing as much in October. I didn't even visit FIMfiction all that much, to be honest. I've been pretty absent ... I know when you're someone like me, who's completely unknown on this site, it doesn't matter to other people, but it matters to me, so I'mma write 'bout it.

NaPoWrMo 2013! - #5: 50 k · 10:43pm Sep 30th, 2013

It's 6:31 p.m. September 30th.

I did it.

... I never thought I'd be able to do this much. Just a few months ago I was down on myself for not being able to write as much as I thought I should be able to, and now ... 50, 000 words in a month.

Well, NaPoWrMo is almost over, and I never would have dreamed I'd be so productive. I'll write a post on what got me through and tips I've found for getting through a big stint of writing for the last NaPoWrMo 2013! blog, but before that happens, I've got to figure out what I'm going to do for October.
