It's amazing how fast time flies when hyper-focused on a task. I left work 30 minutes early to work on my Application/Submission at home. I went through the play a final time, fixed typos, changed a line or two but really kept revision to a minimum and uploaded the draft, my resume, artistic statement, references and short bio. Phew! It's done, it's out, auto-notification indicating its been received. On to the next thing.
Now I can focus on the short story deadline coming up in 5 weeks. Eek! Now all I have to do is write a story for it. :-p
Peace,
Lily

Success!!
I have reached my minimum page count today. Woohoo! I'm not saying this draft is a masterpiece but I have no problem submitting this play for this application deadline. I won't lie, I am a little surprised. My muse showed up and we started at 9:30 am on this rainy Sunday morning. By noon, I crossed the 10 page mark.
Afterwards, I worked on the artist statement and a resume. I sent the draft to the people who will be my references and my sisters. I told every one to be gentle in their feedback because its the first play I've written in a while. By 3:30 pm I was done for the day.
I haven't yet submitted all the elements to the application BUT I'll do it Monday night after work. I want to give the whole project one last pass before I submit it. I rewarded myself with a couple of episodes of Stranger Things season 2. Yay!
Peace,

A Solid Fifty Pages
I spent the day writing today, even with a bloody migraine. Even with my sister stopping by with pizza and wanting to watch Stranger Things. Man! Am I enjoying that series. But I digress. I spent the morning writing before she got here. Then after she left, I spent the evening writing about 6.5 hours total. I am up to 50 pages. I have 10 pages left to hit my minimum page count. I am well aware that this is a first draft. That I want to develop the piece out, flesh out the characters, delve a bit deeper...but it has good bones. At least, I hope it does.
My muse was chomping at the bit today but she grew tired when I hit 10:30 pm. She gave a big yawn and she told me to run along, we would do more tomorrow. Then she drew her shade down around her chaise lounge and fell into a deep sleep. I'll let her rest for now...I hope she'll be able to manage a bit more tomorrow morning so I can finish this draft. Thursday is the deadline. Eek! Okay, the fear is starting to set in so I'm going to sign off before that beast is fed.
Feel the fear and write anyway.
Peace,
