Ready. Set. Write!





Welcome to Ready. Set. WRITE! If you’re wondering what RSW is all about, it’s a summer long writing intensive with the purpose of writing, revising, planning, and keeping each other accountable. We will be sharing our goals on Mondays, keeping our posts BRIEF (2-3 lines per heading) so we can spend more time on writing and less time on blogging. You can sign up at any of the host blogs (Alison‘s,Katy‘s, Erin‘s, Jaime’s) every Monday. And don’t forget to hop around to encourage other participants. For more info about RSW and a link to their super fun buttons, go here.
 
 How I did on last week’s goals
 
 Not great. I wrote about 8.5K but I did pull out my WIP for V.O.L.T and I added an ending to it. I was so excited that I did my happy dance in front of other people. I won't be doing that again any time soon...
 

 My goal(s) for this week
 
Write 10K on current WIP, Enlighten Me. Start to edit other WIP, The Awakening or V.O.L.T.
 
 
A favorite line from my story OR one word/phrase that sums up what I wrote/revised
 
 
My one word sum up of the week's writing: Revelations
  
 
 
The biggest challenge I faced this week (ex. finding time to write)
 
 
Balance... again. It was my youngest daughter's b-day weekend so she had a sleep-over...mother's of tweens you understand.
  
 Something I love about my WIP
 
 
The geekery. Yes, I love being a geek and my story reflects this. I love super-heroes and super villains.

 How I did on last week’s goals

I wrote about 5k - not my goal. I had planned on at least 10k. But work, the kids, my husband's broke foot all took me away...

My goal(s) for this week
 
Write 10K on current WIP, Enlighten Me. Start to edit other WIP, The Awakening.
 
 
A favorite line from my story OR one word/phrase that sums up what I wrote/revised
 
 
With a sideways glance at my tingling arm, the same slimy green color skated up my left hand. It wrapped itself around my wrist, twisted itself past my elbow… Shit, I’m turning into the Incredible Hulk.
 
The biggest challenge I faced this week (ex. finding time to write)
 
 
Balance...it's always balance. The "juggle" is real people.
 
 
 Something I love about my WIP
 
 
The raw emotion...and humor. Who knew I could be funny and serious?
