Yay, Anne! You're gonna rock those revisions like an all-star. :D & I am about to get going with a new(ish) WIP for the first time in what feels like forever! hehe. Good luck to both of us :)

I have decided to make some fancy changes to my WIP. So back into the revision boat I go. *toot tooooot*

What are you working on now?

Miss Morbid - Deff over Xmas break. That first draft will be done soon :) Merry Christmas to you too!

Amy - ILY like more than world can handle so it had to split into two worlds so it could handle it and now there are two worlds and it's all because of my love for you MUAHAHA :D

Anne - No kidding!! Although goatees on everyone would be pretty awesome. hehe <3

Samantha - Yeah, once you've worked that much on NaNo it definitely comes time for an "ebb"! Love your chart :)) Good luck writing, girl!

Gracie - Yay!! <3 NP :)

Kelly - Wh00t for quality. That is definitely so important. Holiday wishful thinking... correct thinking. :D!

I'm definitely Bottom Graph Girl as of late, but I'm pleased from a quality standpoint, so I like to think it evens out.

Or maybe that's just wishful holiday thinking . . .

Hmm... mine productivity level at the moment is right now at the "wait what was I doing" point. But you gave me hope, thanks for the encouragment! :D

After NaNoWriMo, my productivity levels went down significantly. Now, I'm making myself edit my manuscript at a pace of a few pages a day, and come the new year, I'll go into more serious revisions. Basically, I'm being productive right now, but haven't done much writing these past weeks that wasn't for school. :)

This made me LOL. I live in the green line. If I ever got the orange line I'd worry I was trapped in a creepy bizarro world where everyone had goatees.

Epic all night revise-a-thon and you STILL made time for sweet charts? Awesome.

GO EMILIA!! You freaking rock, my lady. Pwned those revisions on the face, yo.

Congratulations! I don't even have a first draft done... sometimes I don't feel like a writer... all well. I will write for sure over Christmas break and I still love writing. Merry Christmas!

Pam, thanks so much <33 Such a good point on deadlines! Sometimes you need that motivation, and it usually works really well even if it's self-imposed. :D ILY!!

Stina, the holidays definitely make it hard to predict writing habits :) I've totally found that "ending effect" too - when you're close to finishing, it gives you so much momentum! Good luck wrangling those kids <3 You're awesome!

2010-12-17T11:23:08.926-05:00

Woo hoo! Congrats for finishing your revision! :) For me, I have to give myself a self-imposed deadline in order to be productive. If I don't have a goal, then I can easily be distracted by Twitter and lovely blogs like yours. :)

Yep, that bottom graph pretty much represents my writing right now because of the season. And with the kids off school next week, it could be dropping down again.

I find at the beginning of a first draft, I'm near the bottom of the graph, but as I get closer to THE END, my productivity level sky rockets. Also, telling my THREE kids I'll share my birthday chocolate with them if I don't hit 2000 words today helps too.
