The Writing Diaries (4): Writing Update

It’s been a while since I’ve updated my writing and enough has changed where I figured I could write something up. There are several really exciting new things happening.

Camp NaNoWriMo

Even though I had to lower my limit from 30,000 words to 20,000, I was able to reach this limit. I still count it as a win, though, and it was a much needed moral boost. I combined both words from the actual story and the outline. I’ll be doing it again in July but this time I’m going to try and get 35,000 words. I want to do the full 50,000 in November so this is my way of preparing myself.

Scrivener

I remember trying this writing software many years ago but now that I’m more dedicated to my writing, I decided that I’d give it another go. Since I won Camp NaNoWriMo, I was able to get a discount on the software and I. Am. In. LOVE. There are so many ways for me to break down my writing projects and it’s been really helpful with writing more. I know that there’s still more for to me learn about writing with Scrivener so I’m steadily exploring more areas.

Historial Romance 

This is the story that I was working on during Camp. It’s a story that I’m excited to work on with characters I’ve loved for a very long time. There are still a few parts of the story that I haven’t worked through but the major plot points have been down. This is the story I’ll be working on in July.

Urban Fantasy/Paranormal Romance 

This is the newest story that I’ve come up with that really surprised me. It’s not a genre I thought I’d ever work on but the plot points has been a fun experience. It’s such a challenge to create a new spin on a genre that has been around for such a long time. I won’t share exactly what my story will be but I’m hoping to work on it in November.

One of my personal intentions for 2023 was to work One of my personal intentions for 2023 was to work on using affirmations more in my daily life. They’ve helped me calm myself down during anxious moments and moments of low self esteem. I have definitely noticed a shift in my self image by repeating affirmations often. 

That’s why I’ve decided that every month I’ll share affirmations I’m trying to embody!

Hi! My name is Akchita and I’m the creator behin Hi! My name is Akchita and I’m the creator behind this account! This isn’t how I thought I’d introduce myself, but keeping up with this account has already proven to be difficult.

It hasn’t been difficult because I don’t know what to post or I haven’t gotten the graphics made. No, it’s been difficult because I can’t get out of my own head. 

I keep thinking that trying to create content isn’t the best idea for me. I keek thinking that I’m not good at this even though I’ve barely tried. 

So, this post is me trying to get out of my head! It’s a commitment I’m making to myself and to you that I won’t give up trying!
