azhure: (dreaming tree)

Despite it officially being a public holiday yesterday, I was productive.

Approx 1600 words on Never.  I’ve really given myself permission to suck writing this first draft, and it’s liberating.  I have always fallen into the trap of editing as I write a first draft, and it slows me down something awful.  Right now, I need to burn through this draft so I can get to the fun part – editing it.

Only a short walk yesterday, during which I was catching up on the latest episode of The Writer and the Critic.  I’m a bit behind, but I like to have read all of the books Kirstyn and Ian discuss beforehand.  I love this podcast so much.  And Ian and Kirstyn’s banter had me walking along the road, giggling like an idiot :)

Reading has slowed down of late – still working on The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, but finding it very slow going.  I have so many books I am dying to get to, but I’m making myself try to read only one piece of fiction at a time (just ignore those other ones in the Goodreads widget ;) ).

Media consumption last night was the latest episode of Game of Thrones, which I’m enjoying.  It’s an interesting experience watching it when I can’t remember the book at all, apart from a couple of bits and pieces.
