Here’s the status of the progress I’ve made toward my writing goals for 2010 for week #1:
| Week | YTD | |
| Total words written | 1,652 | 4,851 |
| # stories completed | 0 | 0 |
| # stories submitted | 0 | 0 |
| # stories sold | 0 | 0 |
Summary: Ugh. Another terrible week for writing. Part of it has been distraction. But for the story I’m working on, I suddenly feel as if I’ve forgotten how to tell a story. I have two completely different approaches to the story and have been bouncing back and forth between both of them. I can’t seem to settle on one or the other. On Thursday or Friday, I finally sat down and reviewed my notes from the James Gunn workshop I did a few summers ago. I think I’ve finally opted on the approach. Now I just have to get back into the discipline I had back in November and get back to writing every day. (This week I managed to write only one day!)
