Thoughts of the Week

Total Words This Week: 4,887
Decided to list some of my thoughts I've had during the week to give you a little more insight on my progress and/or struggles.
- Dictating is still easier than typing everything out, even when I have to make corrections.
- Unfortunately when I'm so focused on writing, I don't always realize that the dictation of the words didn't come out right so I didn't fix it. Still don't have the time to correct it all since I'm typically writing right before bed. This will be fun to clean up during revisions/edits. / end sarcasm
- Missed a day because I spent the afternoon on Friday to hang out with a friend. It was fun and I needed it but fortunately I was able to get ahead enough that it didn't even make a dent to my word goal. Unfortunately, that also means I no longer have a buffer. lol
- As always, I write best when I can visualize what's going on before I write or dictate the scene.
- This story will no longer be a short story but likely a novelette or maybe even a novella.
