I skipped a day… that’s just… well.. I haven’t decided whether or not that’s a bad thing yet.

I ended up writing some notes – not enough to say that my full attention was on actually writing, but more than I have during the whole rest of the week – and reading, which I’m counting as part of the writing process. Also, relaxing because I just ended one hell of a week and am looking down the barrel of another hell of a week. A girl needs her beauty rest, ya’ know? Also, she needs to do her laundry and get her house “In-law Visit Clean” – which is, as everyone should know, the highest level of clean known to man.

I’m aiming to get my handwritten notes transcribe into doc format this week so I can finally stop having to dig in several different sources (2 separate notebooks and a folder full of docs on a thumb drive). Honestly, I don’t know how I’ll be able to do away with the notebooks completely because I simply do not carry my laptop with me everywhere I go. There’s always iPhone notes, I suppose, but I write faster than I iPhone type and the times I’ve tried to write notes on my phone were not exactly productive.

Still contemplating the purchase of a SmartPen. I think that’s just the gadget girl in me speaking, though. I mean, really? Over $150 for a PEN? Absolutely ridiculous! And yet… there’s still part of me kinda drooling about it.

At any rate, I’m getting closer to finishing up the Pre-writing phase and getting in to actually writing. I have 2 more outlines to finish after I transcribe the handwritten notes and then it’s all rough-draft writing from there. I’m setting up the goal to be done with it all and starting up on Chapter 1 by the beginning of February.
