Cocoon Year: Weeks 37 & 38
Full Steam Ahead Revising continues to feel fun. As I sort out more and more of my creative projects going elsewhere, I have more time to return to Warlock’d. Having something on each page of the script — no matter how poorly-written — makes it feel like there’s...
Cocoon Year: Weeks 35 & 36
The Joy of Revision These last two weeks have been quite busy with freelance work. In between I squeak in writing. I finally came up with a full-ish script, bar the first scene and a court scene for later in the book. Now, I am reading through the script from front...
Cocoon Year: Weeks 33 & 34
The Final 10% is 90% of the Work Well, I’ve done it. I wrote through each of the scenes in my new, concise and focused outline. I didn’t ‘believe’ anything that was happening as I was writing it, but on cursory glance-over, a lot of the characters feel visceral, real,...
Cocoon Year: Weeks 31 & 32
Cocoon Year: When Accountability Gets in the Way of... Accountability? As I continue my cocooning, I find that the act of blogging about it may in fact be getting in the way of actually working on the script. The cocoon artworks are only here to continue the theme,...
Cocoon Year: Weeks 29 & 30
Cocoon Year: The Worst Month Here’s a casual ranking of the months of the year. I really like October and November. Most other months are quite good for me, as the type of person who hunkers down by a large window and hopes rain will fall. June is all right, if a...
Cocoon Year: Weeks 27 & 28
Cocoon Year: Allowing Synopses to Build on Each Other As I write, I learn new techniques for visualizing entire stories. Learning to understand synopses has been really important for me. One important thing I’ve learned about them is that they’re good for sharing with...
Cocoon Year: Weeks 25 & 26
Cocoon Year: Finding the Character in Objects Writing progress became confused, dismal. I figured something out between the way I approach problems and the way my spouse approaches problems. When we play a puzzle game called Picross together, we often mess up the...
Cocoon Year: Weeks 23 & 24
Cocoon Year: A Retrospective of Drafts I really wish this wasn’t already halfway through the year. I’d hoped to have gotten started on the art part of my project instead of languishing on writing like I always do concerning Warlock’d. For both weeks, I decided to do a...
Cocoon Year: Weeks 21 & 22
Cocoon Year: A New StartI keep saying I'm not going to restart the outline, but I wasn't having any fun writing my rough draft and I think that's a sign. Re-simplifying the story should help get the finish line closer. Cocoon Week 21 I wrote things. Mostly, I went...
Cocoon Year: Weeks 19 & 20
Cocoon Year: May WoesI keep saying I'm not going to restart the outline, but I wasn't having any fun writing my rough draft and I think that's a sign. Re-simplifying the story should help get the finish line closer. Cocoon Week 19 I wrote many scenes in Warlock’d...
