Today was a very productive day for fiction writing. I finished up with the “Listening Post” short story. The rough draft, anyway. The revision will be complete before the week is out, and hopefully it will be submitted by the weekend along with a few other tales.
Tomorrow begins a new week and a new experiment in writing that was outlined in this yesterday’s Writing in Public. Expect the numbers in all four categories to rise on a (hopefully) daily basis! I also want to start posting some snippets of the different stories as they are worked on, specifically to show the evolution from rough draft to final product. To use a movie industry term, a lot gets left on the cutting room floor.
On to the numbers!
