5:30 / Summer Writing Challenge / 8th Check-in / A Miscellany of Jobs

The Write Focus

Hi, all! It’s our 8th check-in for the Summer Writing Challenge. A little over a week to go to the end of July BUT not the end of the Summer Writing Challenge.

I’ve struggled and I’ve soared in this past week. It’s all a matter of juggling the bad with the good to keep a mental balance and motivation.

Last Wednesday, first day of our work week, is a perfect example of this juggling act.

We cover a lot this week, including characters who are ciphers and easy-out solutions to plots; objective distance; copyright, ideas, and the Fair Use doctrine; crafting newsletters and book descriptions, fiction and nonfiction; and our tally of Success vs. Failure.

We’ve a lot to discuss. Let’s do it.
