RK Wallis's latest activity

And hoping to start today, but it is the 4th of July so I have to watch 1776 and fry chicken. Also two birthday's combine in tonights celebration. My son and his fiancee came back Tuesday for their marriage of convenience interview with the Irish...

Yep, all the info is at the top of the thread. And yes, you can backdate :) (I use this feature a lot when I forget to log on the actual day). This is why I turned off my website's comment feature. Not crypto but sunglasses ads of all things...

Another two chapters rewritten over the course of today and yesterday. Not bad going with nine hours on duty. The writing gets done before and after work, the thinking about it and listening back to what I've written takes place in the car...

Another 500ish words done last night. Month total: 1,202 WIP total: 192,888

I've changed my goal on the Trackbear leader board to be 40 chapters (all of them) instead of the 10 I'd put originally, because I went back to the beginning. The last 10 chapters need the most work, but I have changed enough in the first 2...

Okay, three additional chapters revised (four total). One-tenth of the book now in third draft form. I think it's better. But the latter stages require more complicated rewriting, so not sure one-tenth is on, ahead or behind schedule. I'm gonna...

I'm about to do something I don't think I'm supposed to. It's a three-scene chapter that goes Present POV 1 --> Deep flashback POV 2 --> Present POV 1. Instead of hearing the character relate her story to the POV 1 character, we fall into the...

I'm aiming to finish 6 short stories (3-5k each) 1. Final edit of a finished piece (spy) 2. Carve out a concept from a partially-completed novel (sci-fi) 3. Carve out a concept from a developing idea (fantasy) 4. Refine/edit a semi-finished...

Starting today, Some how the first got lost.

I have a big delete coming. I'll push it off until I've more words under my belt. Maybe it'll hurt less that way.

I deleted a lot tonight, so just glad I still ended up with a positive number.

600ish words on Rarkyn book 3. My goal is to get it to 210k which should bring it close to the end (please let it be close to the end).

My goal is to establish the main character voice for the third book in my experimental royal road series. Controlling question: Can eavesdropping on star-crossed lovers’ forbidden dialogue distract an ancient AI masquerading as a domestic servant...

My goal is to rewrite The Forgotten Songs of Sarah Sullivan . I'm halfway through and would like to finish second half this month. It's way too long. I'm aiming for 32 chapters (16 done already), but it'll probably be more. It would be an...

If it was part of your goal, then it counts. Cool! Got a link?
