Loveday Writing

Due to the inspiration turbo boost over the previous two days where I managed to write four letters in one go, I was determined to finish. Carrie’s and Scott’s letters were the most difficult to write as I don’t know them very well. I felt that the lack of grandparents in the kids’ lives needed to be addressed in some

I definitely made up for my lack of progress over the last week. I wrote Bethie’s, Cassie’s, Julie’s and Elaine’s letters over the weekend. With Cassie’s letter, I exceeded the 10,000 word mark. Bethie is the youngest child and her letter is what I view as the “flip side” of Michael’s letter. Bethie’s the youngest child and never knew her

Other than thinking about how Bethie’s letter should be written and the possibilities of Julie’s and Elaine’s letters, due to my work schedule and illness, no progress was made. As of now, my total word count is 6,360 words.

As I did with Gwen’s letter, I managed to make a lot of progress by going to my town library to work. This time, I managed to write Christi’s letter. As I predicted in my blog post detailing Gwen’s letter, Christi’s letter was also one of the easiest letters to write and is the longest at 1,900 words. Christi is

Other than thinking about how Christi’s letter should be written, I made no progress over these days.

Yesterday I managed to make lots of progress by going to my town library to work, as it was quiet and I had no distractions. I managed to finish Lucas’ letter and write Gwen’s letter. Gwen’s letter was the easiest to write (so far) as she is one of the characters I know the most. Gwen is the oldest girl

I haven’t made much progress over the last five days, this is due to the fact that I work full-time and have to commute three hours a day to get to and from work, so at the end of each day, I’m too tired to make any progress. Due to my current working situation, the way that the story of

Today I actually managed to make progress and write 1,597 words and most of these words were Michael’s letter to Lorraine. Michael is Lorraine’s oldest child and I based him on his namesake–my father. I felt that Michael was the only child who could talk to Lorraine about his father’s death as he was the oldest and essentially had to

Unfortunately I have made no progress on How We Got Here yet as my last two days at work were busy and stressful and I was too fatigued to write. Today, Day 5, I only managed to make small edits on my already written prologue so the rest of the novel would make sense. I’m going to work on making

I tried my best to progress Letters to a Future Me, but in all honesty I couldn’t. The idea had developed, I knew I wanted to begin each chapter with a certain event going on in the girls’ lives, with the first one being Brooke’s wedding. Each word that I tried to write felt forced and contrived and in my
