Happy autumn, friends and Sparrows! *jumps into leaf pile*
Well, September has been full of surprises! For instance, I didn’t think I’d start a podcast this month. That surprised me.
I also don’t go back to the day job until next week. It was supposed to be this week, but then my manager changed it, so I had a little more time than expected!
I’ve also reshuffled when I post what, effective immediately. As of today, this blog’s schedule will be:
Monday – podcast transcripts; Wednesday – mini book reviews and misc.; last Friday of the month – progress report (unless the last day is a Thursday; in that case, I will post on Thursday so there’s not too much time between the end of the month and my progress update); First day of the month – monthly goals (if the first day of the month happens to be a Monday, I will post on Tuesday)
But let’s get back to the normal layout before this gets any messier *ahem*
Blood Wisp
I’m making progress! It hasn’t been much this month – again, it’s been a confused 25 days – but I’m pleased with how it’s progressing. I think I’ll focus on it next month so I can get this second draft done.
The Silence of Magic
I was excited to come back to this, too, but I don’t think I’ll be able to write both books at the same time. I’m sad about it, but I think I’ll have to set this one aside and focus on Blood Wisp, which has been a longer time coming and therefore deserves priority.
More time to build the world between writing sessions <3
The Writing Sparrow Podcast
This was as much a surprise to me as it is to you XD I’ve been tempted to start a podcast for years but always stalled, and then this month I decided to go for it. It’s terrifying – I’m not used to putting my voice out there – but I’m slowly getting used to it and I do enjoy the interviews.
I’ve spent a good chunk of the last two weeks learning how to record and edit audio, finding the best way to share the podcast, and generally learning as much about it as I could. It’s been a steep learning curve, but I’m an author – I’m used to it *high five*
I also spent most of that time staring at my screen and out the window trying to convince myself to start recording at all *ahem* #introvert #sociallyawkward
I’ll post transcripts of all episodes every Monday, which is also when the episodes go live. You can find them via their category or their brand-new page.
