Hello Big Bangers!

It's that weekly check-in time again, so feel free to step on up and use the comments to tell us how you're doing.   Or, alternatively,  flail/cry/jump-for-joy/pour a large one (delete as applicable).   Got any questions you need answered?  Ask away!   Just want to chat about something that isn't the Pros Big Bang?  Well...we're probably OK with that too ;)

Let us know how things are going and give those cheerleaders a chance to shake their pom poms.  Go on - they really like an audience!

Finally,  here are 10 authors' 10 best tips for writing, as collected by The Guardian.

Happy writing, and happy weekend folks!

How did I miss this? I dunno...

Well, I'm progressing somewhat. A few things happened recently:

• I've been doing a random, unorganized canon watch recently, and I'm picking up on a LOT of things I didn't the first time around. Especially with the banter. (And some of it's incredibly funny, although Cowley lets his operatives get away with too much)


• My story's basic structure will have to be changed pretty significantly to work well (okay, I knew that going in). Wondering whether I should still try this idea, or something else a little simpler (and I do have an idea).

I did compare where I'm at now with where I was last year. Definitely was doing better last year, but I found I'm capable of more writing in a short amount of time than I thought I was (I wrote 5,000 words in eight days last year - whoa).

I'll see how May / June go. If I get some solid time in, then I'll go for it.

Okay, I'm multitasking too much right now. Need to get some work things >:^< done.

Urgh - tell me about it. I just want to sit and write, and work is there haunting me. Damn you RL! :)
