Why hello blogger readers (or probably just me reading this myself because i don't believe that anyone is actually reading this blog)
Onwards to my writing success today. Well i don't know if it has been a productive day or not. I haven't actually added many numbers to my word count today. Probably about 100 max. But what i did do is download a nifty little program called yWriter5 when procrastinating on the net. And it actually got me setting out my story, writing down some scenes, outling the basics of the plot. Now i always thought i worked better when i just let my mind be creative, as little structure as i could. But now i've been working with this little piece of genius software i've realised that i actually like the structure. I've got lots of different scenes ready to be written and it also means i don't have to go wasting time scanning through a word document for the scene i want to work on. I get to pick up scenes and drop them at will meaning i don't have to be so liniar.
This is a quick screenshot of the project. As you can see i may be procrastinating again as i have taken the time to draw a small hamster on it. Hey, i thimk i deserve a break after the time i spent on the outline.
Anyway, it's almost dinner time and i have an episode of Sanctuary to watch. I have told myself i don't have to write any more today as a treat. I may do some more writing if i feel in the mood but i'm not going to send myself on a guilt trip if i don't. The only problem is that i'm worried i'm going to spend to long outlining the scenes that i'm not actually going to right them. So project for tomorrow. 3k words.
