A trip abroad and a move to NYC later … I’m back!
Over the past weeks I have had some time to really consider where I
stand with my writing. In the process, I have made the realization that I
constantly talk about writing. How easy it is. How hard it is. How I will be
published …
But it’s all just talking and no work, isn’t it?
With all this banter, I hadn’t opened a writing document in TWO
MONTHS. Sure, I’m “busy” and “tired,” but let’s be honest,
“busy” is actually “unmotivated” and
“tired” is why most never get published.
That being said, I am self-imposing WRITER BOOTCAMP. Here are the details
for my own:
SUNDAY, MAY 20th until SUNDAY, JUNE 10th (incl.)
1.
Script – 3
pages/day
2.
Novel (Fantasy) – 2000 words/day
3.
Novel (Mystery-Fantasy)
– 2000 words/day, or 2 hours (whichever comes first)
4.
Review previous day’s
work – 30 minutes
5.
5 days/week working out
(minus Wed. and Sat.) (Hey, this is boot camp after all)
6.
One Broadway show per
week
7.
One blog post per week
8.
Write in diary twice per
week
9.
EC: One hour of any
other writing
Exceptions:
Friday and Saturday count as one day
Holidays are OFF.
Wednesday is off / makeup day
This turns out to be 15 days total, so end goal is:
45 script pages
60,000 words
30,000
words – Fantasy novel
30,000 words – Mystery-Fantasy novel
This will be tough, but “busy”
and “tired” are out the door.

Cheers,
Lev
