Odds & Ends 8/06-8/19

Posted on August 19, 2018August 19, 2018 by Christian Douglass

There was lots of movie watching going on in my spare time the last couple of weeks, some new, some not so new. Here's my round-up of reviews if you're in need of some entertainment recommendations.   The Guernsey Literary & Potato Peel Pie Society - Based on the book of the same name, the … Continue reading Odds & Ends 8/06-8/19

Odds & Ends 7/16-7/29

Posted on July 29, 2018July 29, 2018 by Christian Douglass

The past couple of weeks have gone by pretty quickly, so this week's post is going to round up the highlights before I head out to the fair tonight to fill up on greasy food. Mamma Mia: Here We Go Again - It's light on story, but the music is good, and that's really what … Continue reading Odds & Ends 7/16-7/29

Odds & Ends 07/09-07/15

Posted on July 15, 2018 by Christian Douglass

Synopsizing was the name of the game this week. If you've ever wondered about the purpose of outlining before writing, I can assure you it is to make writing your synopsis afterwards easier. I know because I didn't do it that way with this project. It's not that it was impossible, it's just so much … Continue reading Odds & Ends 07/09-07/15

Odds & Ends 6/25-7/01

Posted on July 1, 2018 by Christian Douglass

Special shout-out to Mrs. Toombs's summer school writing class for making this past week extra awesome! I got to start my week off discussing my writing process with the class, and I even had the privilege of reading samples of their work. If you ever want to test your knowledge on a subject, try making … Continue reading Odds & Ends 6/25-7/01

Odds & Ends 6/11-6/17

Posted on June 17, 2018June 17, 2018 by Christian Douglass

It was back to the routine this week. With my editing completed over vacation (yay!), I took a step back from that project to refresh my brain. To do so, I decided to read Pygmalion since it was left at the bottom of my vacation stack. I don't know about anyone else, but I find the character … Continue reading Odds & Ends 6/11-6/17

Odds & Ends 5/29-6/03

Posted on June 3, 2018 by Christian Douglass

I am officially on vacation! Well, from the day job, anyway. Now I get to work full time on the writing, at least for a few days. Oh, how I'm looking forward to that! As such, this week was all about getting things in order and preparing so I can be free from distraction. The … Continue reading Odds & Ends 5/29-6/03

Odds & Ends 5/07-5/13

Posted on May 13, 2018May 13, 2018 by Christian Douglass

You know that feeling when it seems like you've been trying to read the same page over and over for hours but you're still nowhere near absorbing what's in front of you? That's where I'm at today. That's not to say I haven't been productive this week, or even enjoying myself, because I have, both … Continue reading Odds & Ends 5/07-5/13

Odds & Ends 4/23-4/29

Posted on April 29, 2018April 29, 2018 by Christian Douglass

Though it might sound a little odd to say at only the end of April, this week marked the arrival of summer for me. The weather even cooperated and finally started acting at least springlike, with a string of 60 and 70 degree days uninterrupted by the threat of random snow showers. But more than … Continue reading Odds & Ends 4/23-4/29

Odds & Ends 4/09-4/15

Posted on April 15, 2018 by Christian Douglass

I got a little more editing done this week, but we had some exceptionally excellent weather for a few days, so I had to take advantage of that and do some reading in the sunshine while I could (there was actual snow in the air today). I would say sitting/laying out in the sun is … Continue reading Odds & Ends 4/09-4/15

Odds & Ends 3/26-4/1

Posted on April 1, 2018March 30, 2018 by Christian Douglass

This week once again proves how useful checklists are in my life. In a perfect world, all my time would be writing time. Or at least two-thirds of it. Alas, I do not live in a perfect world, so I have to make sure I'm making the most of my time and getting as much … Continue reading Odds & Ends 3/26-4/1

Odds & Ends 3/19-3/25

Posted on March 25, 2018March 25, 2018 by Christian Douglass

It was back to the basics this week while editing. I had a scene that just didn't seem right, no matter how I changed it up, and I could not put my finger on what was wrong with it. And structurally, it wasn't a scene I could cut. So I hit the books—or more accurately, … Continue reading Odds & Ends 3/19-3/25
