Writerly resolutions: August status

I feel like I’m definitely getting more in a writing groove, although still a bit scattered. I’ve changed my graph game up and instead of the pie chart, there’s now a stacked line chart which gives a better combined view of how much writing I did on a day by day basis and how often I fell into a slump:

A nice colorful graph of my writing which shows me hitting a high level of work around my trip to Iceland, then a bit of a slump the week after I came back and starting to get back in the groove at the end of the month.

Bar chart showing my breakdown of what I worked on: Non-Fiction Project	11
Short Stories	15
New Novel	7
Poems	14
Entertainment	5
Old novel	1Along with the old bar chart that shows breakdowns by project. In theory the chart should be descending heights going left to right, but I ended up getting distracted by story and poetry writing over work on the non-fiction project. One hopes that September will be better.

Mostly rejections still, but another poem accepted for publication and already out in the world at Milwaukee Avenue Messenger.

Enough work done on the new novel and the entertainment to justify throwing in graphs for the progress on those as well. The new novel mostly saw work happening during the Iceland trip, but a little bit today as well.

A mostly flat graph for the word count on the new novel, but a bit of advancement the 10th through the 14th

The entertainment likewise saw the work happening in Iceland. There may not have been a visible eclipse, but there was some typing.
