IWSG - March 2018
For anyone who doesn't know, the Insecure Writer's Support Group is a group of writer's who post once a month about their insecurities, and then visit each other to offer help and support.
I finally managed to read through the first draft of my NaNo novel! I mentioned last month that I'd been struggling to read it since I wrote it last July, but this month I just made myself do it.
Now that I've done that, I get to do the fun part - edits!
This month's optional question is: How do you celebrate when you achieve a writing goal/ finish a story?
I have a few ways that I celebrate achieving a goal, and they mostly involve just enjoying myself or giving myself a treat.
When I finished reading my first draft, for example, I spent a couple of hours playing on The Sims 4, which is a great way to have fun and relax. Reading a book and watching TV are other ways to celebrate - sometimes after working on my own stories it's nice to lose myself in someone else's! Or I'll have a treat, like some chocolate or a takeaway.
Glad to hear you managed that read through, Laura. I always enjoy the editing and rewriting more too! Happy writing :)
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to lose ourselves in another story. Now, pass the remote.
ReplyDeleteChocolate is the best, to me. Unfortunately, I indulge even when I don't have anything to celebrate.
ReplyDeleteHappy you went back through your first draft! (sorry it's time to edit now). Good luck!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you finished the read-through. I find that to be excruciatingly difficult. Yay! That's a reward in itself.
ReplyDeleteI like using reading as a reward, too. Especially when it's a book that I've been dying to read.
ReplyDeleteAnd of course, you can't go wrong with chocolate!
Hope your edits are going well...
Hi Laura - well done on enjoying the read through ... know there are rewards ahead. Good luck for the edits - cheers Hilary
ReplyDeleteGood luck with edits! That's a great way to celebrate.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on finishing the NaNo book, AND reading it. Now, the work begins. Great ways to celebrate!
