Hey writers! How is #preptober coming along? . I have been watching a few great livestreams on writing at creativelive.com. They regularly stream classes that you can catch for free if you're there on time. Yesterday I watched a bunch of lectures by Lisa Cron and I really recommend watching them if you get the chance. I think they have an offer to get one lecture for free just for NaNo season! . This is not advertised, I am genuinely excited about this ๐Ÿ˜‚ . . โœ’What is a writing resource that you just can't get enough of?โœ’ . . (My hair was so long in this picture! It's up to my shoulders now) . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #writing #writersofinstagram #writersofig #writer #author #bibliophile #writingtips #writingcommunity #writerlife #writerscorner #authorgram #igauthors #writergram #nanowrimo #nationalnovelwritingmonth #nano #plotthatdraft #editthatdraft #writethatdraft https://www.instagram.com/bookb.rd/p/BpAg6fSFD_U/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1cybogjoph46p

So I have put one project on hold to edit an old one. My SIX WIP was my first ever full first draft! Written in 2012 and set aside cause.. what is editing? Now Iโ€™m pulling it out, dusting it off, and giving it a fresh start. I already remember some of the major issues so Iโ€™ll start there and see where it goes. ๐Ÿ ๐Ÿ ๐Ÿ I think I know what to put in an author website! Woot! Now to make the darn thing. Iโ€™m going to make a WIX site first to play with templates and such and maybe at a later date Iโ€™ll buy my own domain name. ๐Ÿ ๐Ÿ #authorlife #amwritingya #author #writes #writerslife #writingabook #writingcommunity #writersofinstagram #authorsofinstagram #goalsetting #editthatdraft #authorwebsite https://www.instagram.com/p/BnNT3S_lluY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=ebnuou9envqj

I've been struggling with #revisions for months and it's moving at a snails pace and I'm not quite sure why. I think it might be because I fear I won't be able to improve what I already have which I know is silly. Then I get distracted by my other shiny ideas and want to work on those instead. . Anyways, the hope these next few months are to finish the revisions and be able to send to some new beta readers. I expect that it'll take me more than a few months to finish. Check out the link in my profile if you're interested in becoming a beta reader for me! . Let me know if you struggle with revisions too! Definitely let me know if you're participating in #editthatdraft so we can cheer each other on! ๐Ÿ˜ . .

So today let's talk about #preptober !๐Ÿ I am super stoked to be participating in this and I have already set two goals for myself: ๐ŸŽƒ1. I want to finish at least a rough outline of my novel before the start of November. ๐ŸŽƒ2. I will try to find a comfortable writing routine that works well with my studies. . October is alway an extremely busy month for me because so many of my close friends and family have their birthday (including me!) and we have to celebrate them all, obviously. So this makes it very hard to establish a routine, but of I can make it through this month and be able to write consistently then I should be able to do any month, right? ๐Ÿ˜‚ . . ๐ŸWhat are your goals this month??๐Ÿ . . I will be posting non-book pics like these every so often and talk about writing and other things, this will save me time that I can spend on uni and writing! . . . . . . . . . . . #amwriting #novelcraft #plotthatdraft #amplotting #nanowrimo #writinggoals #writersofinstagram #writing #writer #author #editing #amediting #editthatdraft https://www.instagram.com/p/BoZ2QB4i2hM/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1f4j5moa2txdf

Breaktime. 100 pages edited. 1,000 new words down. ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ˜ What do you do to break from your work? I'm learning a new song. Don't expect a video, because it sounds like shit...but I enjoy it and it keeps me sane. ๐Ÿ–ค๐Ÿ–ค #breaktime #guitar #music #learning #writersofinstagram #indieauthorsofinstagram #editthatdraft #editing #writing (at Las Vegas, Nevada) https://www.instagram.com/p/BoCz4O6lfLY/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=454ids7jzxlr

Every downside has an upside, even the books we hated. They can always teach you something. What was a memorable book you didn't like? What part about it didn't you like?๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ”ฅ . . Recently I've been reading a lot of good books, thankfully. But this year a book that I really didn't like was ACOFAS.๐Ÿ”ฅ What did that teach me? Well, I am kind of losing my patience with Sarah J Maas (please please let KoA be good!). And it taught me something about writing, namely that once a character's arc is complete (like Feyre and Rhys), the story really isn't that interesting anymore to me and I start looking for POVs of characters whose arcs aren't complete yet (like Cassian and Nesta - even though I don't like her character.)๐Ÿ˜‚ . ๐Ÿ‚So what did your recent bad read teach you?๐Ÿ‚ . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . #writing #writersofinstagram #writersofig #writer #author #worldbuilding #bookstagram #bookstawhapp #lovebooks #booklover #readersofinstagram #bibliophile #writingtips #writingcommunity #writerlife #writerscorner #authorgram #igauthors #writergram #theupsideofunrequited #simonvsthehomosapiensgenda #lovesimon #leahontheoffbeat #beckyalbertelli #nanowrimo #preptober #contemporary #amwriting #amplotting #amediting #plotthatdraft #writrthatdraft #editthatdraft https://www.instagram.com/bookb.rd/p/BpXhUu7HbgG/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=16vqt6lv9fxcu
