Life has been busy. So busy that I wasn’t sure if I’d fit any writing in this weekend. I had every intention of writing because I haven’t done much this month (I was working on Tears of the King at the beginning of the month, and then I had a day where I started looking at my NaNoWriMo blob, but that’s been about it). Then a mild crisis almost completely derailed me again today (don’t worry, everything’s fine-ish. Just had a fridge stop working). But I am happy to report I did manage to fit in some writing work. I finished putting the notes into my hard copy of the blob (the photocopier from work can print from USB, which is awesome! Unfortunately it left my margin notes out though). The next step with the blob is to completely dismantle it so that I can organize all the notes within it (and take out the things that I don’t need anymore, like the blog post I wrote in it because I needed to up my word count, or the page I spent coming up with world names).
Once I finished with the margin notes, I decided to work a bit on Tears. I’ve been meaning to add a line of dialogue into the game in the hopes it might help players find the witch right off the bat (I honestly don’t know if people will have trouble finding her house or not, but I’d rather err on the side of caution). After that I decided to do a quick play through of the game thus far just to see exactly what I will need to work on next (and to check on how I’m feeling about the early dialogue). Unfortunately I discovered a rather troublesome bug that needed to be fixed; I did manage to deal with it, but it frustrated me for well over an hour!
I’m not sure when I’ll be working on things next because time seems to be at a premium in my life right now. I’m thinking to deal with this, I’m going to have to schedule writing time into my week and stick with it. I’m still not sure if Fridays are the best day for me or not, but I really do like the sound of “Write Fridays.” So I might start fitting in writing time wherever I can during the week and just giving an update here on Fridays. 🙂
