Happy Blog Day Everyone!
A other in-between week here, writing is continuing apace on Chapter 9 of Phantom Dawn. I want to talk a little about where I'm at currently with things but first, let's drop in on that particular duo...
The Comic Tales of Brennan and Riz
Thought a beach strip was in order (though on day of posting, the weather has turned bad again, c'est la vie). The third panel didnt really turn out as I had envisioned in my head but it was fun to experiment at least. Is there any additional milage to get out of this setting? We'll see next week, might be key to getting the good weather again!
Current Thoughts
So, sad to say this isn't going to be a positive post. If you cast your minds back to January, I set myself a writing challenge to get the first draft of Daemon Soul 2 completed and polished. I finished the first part of the challenge (90k by end of February) but hit a major wall, the story wasn't actually completed. I checked my notes and it didn't seem like it would need much more work, three chapters at most. Easy peasy in three months right? Right?
I don't think I need to tell you what happened.
My writing confidence took a major hit, but i wouldn't say that it's solely because I (clearly) failed my challenge. No, I'd say it's partly due to my own low mood, waking up and feeling like a failure in a lot of areas. So far it's only affected Phantom Dawn in the sense that I don't get anything done till the night before I post these blogs, often staying up way later than I should. My lack of time management isn't helping at all which I guess should come as no surprise.
What's next then? Is there any ray of light on the horizon? Any bright spot that could turn this all around?
Probably not, no.
I'll continue on, as I always have done with these moods, all I feel like doing at the minute.
on that downer of a note, I think we'll leave it there for this week. I realise that there is little to no good news these past couple of weeks but that's life I guess.
Till next time...
Keep on writing.
