I’ve noticed progress on PBOTL is very slow.\u00a0 Part of that is a result of Week 5 of HTRYN being focused on identifying conflict, and identifying conflict is tough.\u00a0 At least it is for me.\u00a0 I have a total of 83 cards to process, and my progress is glacial.\u00a0 I can complete 4-6 cards at a time before I get bogged down.\u00a0 It takes me a couple of weeks between those times to gather the strength to return to the cards.<\/p>\n
As a result, I’ve chosen one of the several ideas that have begun presenting themselves to me to spend time developing while I’m incubating on polar bear conflict.<\/p>\n
The idea that struck me?\u00a0 The problems that ensue when Mother Nature’s administrative assistant disappears or suddenly quits — I’m not sure which at this point.\u00a0 No matter what causes the administrative assistant to no longer be doing the job, the end result is chaos in weather patterns.\u00a0 Everything’s out of whack and God (Mother Nature’s boss) is not happy.\u00a0 Talk about pressure.<\/p>\n
I’ve begun using 750words.com<\/a>.\u00a0 I use one account for Artists’ Way Morning Pages.\u00a0 I created a second account for writing idea development.\u00a0 I’d really like to use MaxJournal on my iPad for this, but they have to code in some upgrades before it will work the way I need it to do.\u00a0\u00a0 One of them is word count.\u00a0 The second, which I’ve recently learned with be included in the next version, is multiple accounts.\u00a0 Word count is on their todo list, but I don’t know when it will be added.<\/p>\n On of the things I really like is the stats and heuristics the site compiles on my daily posts.\u00a0 I have to take them with a grain of salt, but they are interesting to see.\u00a0 I want the iPad option, because I won’t be able to access online all the time, do that detracts from it’s usefulness.\u00a0 I do copy the 750words entry to the MaxJournal slot for the day, so I have an offline record of the day’s writings.<\/p>\n The important take away is I’m producing writing again.\u00a0 The daily pages are essentially ho hum drivel, but I hope it will prime the pump, so to speak.\u00a0 The writing project account will hopefully produce something productive.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I’ve noticed progress on PBOTL is very slow.\u00a0 Part of that is a result of Week 5 of HTRYN being focused on identifying conflict, and identifying conflict is tough.\u00a0 At least it is for me.\u00a0 I have a total of 83 cards to process, and my progress is glacial.\u00a0 I …<\/span> Continue reading →<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[56,52,4],"tags":[151],"class_list":["post-2229","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-foolingmothernature","category-pbotl","category-writing","tag-htryn"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_likes_enabled":true,"jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/jeanschara.com\/pmtoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2229","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/jeanschara.com\/pmtoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/jeanschara.com\/pmtoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jeanschara.com\/pmtoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jeanschara.com\/pmtoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2229"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/jeanschara.com\/pmtoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2229\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14660,"href":"https:\/\/jeanschara.com\/pmtoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2229\/revisions\/14660"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/jeanschara.com\/pmtoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2229"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jeanschara.com\/pmtoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2229"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/jeanschara.com\/pmtoo\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2229"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
