This week I'm studying writing Scenes

As part of my process for revising my novel - I'm studying what authors have to say about writing scenes.

I found this great site Scenes Beginning Middle and Ending

Check weekly here - about Publishing Moves

Do you ever give yourself a word limit to write before you can blog or read emails, etc?

This week I've joined the Fast Draft Express - which is working out great for me in getting myself back to 'writing' as fast as I can type - - ususally I blurt out about 600 words in a sitting then take a break and move me and the laptop to another location and blurt out some more.
I say 'blurt' because it's mostly dialogue and I barely look at what I'm typing - so my 'inner editor' doesn't show up and start reading what's on the page.

Today's total is 1,800 words

I have more time to write but I'm going to use it to prepare a chapter to bring to my critique group tomorrow.

Enjoy the process!
