Work done: Ninth meeting of the Tri-County Sisterhood of the Traveling Book. We got through over two and a half pages, beating last week’s record. We are now into chapter 3. Before the meeting, I also spent some time working on the outline for the story I’ll be writing for NaNoWriMo in a month.

Work done: Revising “Adventures in Pithea.” The gang is hanging in limbo as I make some decisions about prop items that may or may not be where they were before and an accidental lie that needs correcting.

Work done: Revising “Adventures in Pithea”–like, actual revision! The gang is much less confused about what small village is where on their island. And now they’re underground and exploring dangerous places. I also worked a little on transferring earlier revisions from paper to computer.

Work done: All spent transferring revisions from paper to computer. I’ll be honest–I’m having a hard time keeping my head in the right place for this lately. It’s the busy season where I work, and there’s a lot to do. I’m gone more, so there’s also a lot to do at home. I find myself strongly wanting to do something more relaxing and mindless in the evenings than work on the story. So I may not do much actual revision for the next few weeks, but I will still do my best to make sure every day includes some sort of writing activity. Not always progress forward with the novel attempt, but not completely falling away and thus risking getting completely off-track.

Work done: Eighth meeting of the Tri-County Sisterhood of the Traveling Book. We got through almost two and a half pages, so the most so far. Also earlier in the day, I spent a fair bit of time working on notes on our shared document, and in the email conversation we’ve been sending back and forth.
