| Any Doctor Who fans here? I just wrote a short story imagining what might have been if Lis Sladen had still been alive when they filmed Day of the Doctor. I like to think she would have had a part in Tom Baker's cameo. So I wrote something along those lines. It's in my portfolio. The port number is #2004763. I would love a review if anyone is interested in taking a look. :) |
| I unwittingly celebrated my 1 yr anniversary of joining this site by writing my first short story in ages! Seems appropriate. It's a happy accident! :) |
| So it's my account birthday today. I'm one year old on Writing.com! Happy account birthday to me! Cake all round!  |
| The last three months have been so stressful. I can't wait to go away with my wife and get some stress relief downtime! You never know, it might even help me get my writing mojo back! |
| I just had a red letter moment. I posted my first ever contest entry on Writing.com. Wish me luck! :) |
| I've just written my first draft for the Short Shots contest. I'd better hurry up and edit it. I have just over a week to get it posted! |
| So I have bragging rights and I'm going to use them. Despite a lot of distractions in my life lately, I managed to write 14 pages of my WIP yesterday and three more pages today. I'm setting myself a goal of at least a page a day, with more if I can manage it. That should be achievable. |
| Thanks blue and Bekkah! Bekkah,I tend to write in a notebook because for some reason my words tend to flow better when I write pen to paper. It just means I have an extra task of typing it all up. So I have no idea wht the word count is. I did a calculation though and figured I've written roughly 10,000 words altogether. |
| I'm the same way! There's just something about the page being a tangible thing, I think, because I believe if I had a typewriter (I don't even want to get into how badly I want a manual typewriter, actually) then perhaps it would be a little better because I'm a fast typer, but then I'd still have the tangible page without the eye pains from staring at a screen for long periods of time. Or at least when I started on my second/third draft after crossing so much out that I have maybe a paragraph on a page, I could type up the fourth on the typewriter and then type it into the word processor haha |
| I had a typewriter when I was a teenager. But I wasn't a writer then. Go figure. Yeah maybe it is something to do with having something tanglible to work on. Or maybe when you're actively holding a pen your brain works differently. I don't know what the reason is. I just know I write better with pen and paper. |
| Hi and welcome to W.Com. Just thought I'd be first to write in your notebook! Checkout "Let's help each other grow- Closed"  Regards,  Sisco. |
