Two thumbs up on my progress report. I didn’t do as much writing as I’d have liked this week due to illness, but that has passed now, and I’m ready to get at it.
My discovery of visualization has put me in a whole new position for writing. Instead of sitting down (or avoiding sitting down) at the computer and not knowing what to write, I have scenes in my head that, if I don’t write them down soon, are going to grow out my orifices like weeds grow through cracks in the sidewalk.
I actually finished Chapter One and have a doozey cliffhanger ending. So, this weekend I’m going to dedicate lots of time to BIC with FOK. (Butt in chair with fingers on keyboard.)
Sunday is time for another ‘Write-Ons Word War,’ so that will motivate me to get more words on the page. I’ll do some brainstorming between writing shifts to get the visualization going full tilt.
Hope everyone has a great weekend!

What an excellent concept. It works for nonfiction as well. If I think hard enough as I wash the evening dishes I can actually see words moving around in my head to form the sentences that have eluded me all day.
Good Luck!
BTW~ LOVE the work in progress button. Where did you get it?

Keep up the writing!
Good for you. Any writing is progress. I did some last night. But my progress is slower than I'd like. Glad the visualization is working for you.
Love BIC and FOK!!! I need to remember those. heheh
Thanks everyone for commenting! Shona, just browse through my blogroll and you will find many interesting writers and aspiring novelists.
Thx for dropping by!
Glad you're feeling better and ready to get back at it! I know I'm reading for some serious progress too. =D
Bummer about the illness -- hope you're feeling much better! Congrats on the progress. I like to visualize too, especially while folding laundry. :-)
I have BIC and FOK so I'd better get at the WIP!
I hope your weekend was productive, Nienke!
Don't you hate it when illness gets in the way of writing? And everything else, as well! Glad you're feeling better. :-)
Glad you're feeling better - and a big woohoo on finishing chapter one - that's an big step towards "the end"!
Congrats on your writing progress! You have to love that rush of inspiration. *g*
I hope you've continued to make progress all week, and continue to feel good.
I need to get my BOOC (butt out of chair) for a while, lest it begin to spread.
