Katherine what a delight for you to be at the writing conference! And some fancy name dropping there ! :)

I’m very grateful to be part of this 100 days of writing with the tiny goals I’ve set for myself during this tough period in my life (and the world!) my goal has been to keep on showing up in some way, and to keep coming back. Joining the weekly Friday meetings has been supremely helpful. Apparently I like it when I’m watched! Always knew I was an exhibitionist!

Recently I’ve been able to work on the rewrite of my manuscript- and instead of one scene at a time, have managed a few times even to do two, working out some tangles in the plot and adding more… something? Into the mix. For that, I’m very grateful.

I’m grateful to you too for showing up, for also being vulnerable and real!

My goal for the upcoming 30 days is to do something (art and writing) almost every day - keep on track with editing, publish on Substack (where I’ve miraculously doubled my subscribers in the past month just by being authentically me!)

Thank you!!! Enjoy London!

Amazing progress, Audrey. So glad to hear you're back working on the manuscript! And big congrats on the Substack numbers - that's no small thing!

My intention is to keep moving forward editing my novel. I’ve done some shifting things around and needed to write some new scenes which I’ve enjoyed. It’s feeling much more like writing to me, where there is more freedom and creativity within the framework of the story I set up.

Ooo that's a lovely result. I feel the same at the moment. Writing something fresh has given me such a boost.

Lovely to meet you in person last night, Katherine 😊 And thanks for another great video - an excellent spur for all to keep going.

My goal for the final 30 days is to finish my WIP, so I can meet my publisher’s deadline and not have to do anymore than some light tweaking over the core festive period xx

Ive been following your videos and writing every day - with one or two days when I couldn't because of medical appointments and visitors. Now I'm researching The Black Death, for a sequel which is in the hands of a small publisher who promises to get back to me by December. I am now scribbling about the characters from my first novel, who if still alive, will 50 years older. Who will di when or go elsewhere when the pestilence hits them ... So far, I've drafted four chapters. I think this counts towards my 100 days of writing.

Yep, still here and still going. My intention for this last 30 days is to get my head deeper into chapters that I want to improve and give myself the time and space to really improve them
