What am I working on?
After the character building we did today in class I've decided to use that character in a story. When I finished writing the first chapter of my novel, I wasn't entirely happy with the outcome therefore I want to take a different approach this time using this new character.
How do I feel about the process?
I have always been one to make up a character as I wrote, but after today's activity I've been exposed to a whole new world of character building. Moving forward I plan on always creating a character in depth before writing their story.
What am I reading now?
I am still reading and having a lot of fun with The Road.

Word Count Wednesday #9
What am I working on?
Not much. I've just been working on the same projects as well as tinkering with a few ideas for some of the experiments.
How do I feel about the process?
It has been a relaxing process just writing what I want when an idea pops into my head.
What am I reading now?
I finally was able to pick back up The Road and have been reading that for the last couple of days.

I hope everyone is having a wonderful spring break.
What am I working on?
I have not been working on much this week just spring break fun but I have bought a small notebook that I can carry around. After we talked about how to get more writing in I thought hey! let's give this a try. As someone who prefers writing with a pen, it seemed perfect. I've only written down random thoughts so far but hopefully something more concrete in the future.
About 300 words
How do I feel about the process?
I love it. I feel like I feel more accomplished when writing something down. So I'm excited to see where this goes.

Word Count Wednesday #7
What am I working on?
After learning about experiment #7 I am very excited to get started. I already have a few ideas jumping around in my head and can't wait to put something down on paper. I'm not sure where this experiment will take me and I can't wait to see what is the final result.
How do I feel about the process?
While reading the chapter I was able to come up with ideas that were shot down and eventually more ideas that fit the definition well. I have yet to write anything but I expect it to be fun and maybe even a little challenging.
What am I reading now?
I'm catching up on Stephen King's On Writing as well as reading a few of the chapters in 20 Master Plots.

First I wanted to say fantastic job to those who presented today and I can't wait to listen to the rest of them.
After a few weeks of not working on much of anything I've started to get back into the swing of things. After spending time on the narrative assignment I have been actively trying to not only progress the story but to make the necessary changes for a more congruent novel. I've changed quite a few things that I believe has made the story a better read. More recently I have written a short poem only a few stanzas so far. I'm not sure if I'm going to add much more to it at this time.
HOW DO I FEEL ABOUT THE PROCESS?
The process so far has been incredible. My creativity is flowing once again and I am eager to sit down and write more of whatever comes to my mind whether it's for my novel or for something brand new.
I'm reading On Writing as well as a few poems from the Victorian Era for my English Literature class (fun stuff) and of course as many blogs as I can sink my teeth into.
