After a rest of about a week after my recent trip, I went back to my drafting but there was no juice to it. So sometimes towards the end of last week, I decided I would remake the WIP into a scene by scene summary on index cards.  Why am I doing this and whatContinue reading “Moonlake’s Writing Updates- June 2025”

From about mid-January this year, I have had to pick up the itinerary planning for our upcoming European trip to Spain and Portugal. I was originally going to start on that much later given the original plan of going in October. But given my study plans and how my supervisor wants to work with meContinue reading “Writing Updates- March 2025”
