Welcome to the fifth writing club update!

As I’m sure is the case with many of you, the news on my feed has been getting greyer along with the clouds outside, and so I find myself looking to solar punk as a glimpse through those clouds, at a better possible present.

I hope you are keeping safe and warm, and that your projects have been a source of strength and comfort for you.

Onward to our Participants!

As always, anyone and everyone is extremely welcome to comment or share their own work. And if you’d like to be included in the next writing club update, simply say what you’re working on this month.

Have a good November, folks. :)

    Thanks for your feedback! I’m not sure why I went without quotations other than I’ve always wanted to try it. It feels a bit disorienting, which I like. If I end up having lots of back-and-forth dialogue, I might just add them back in though.

    Thanks for the goal reminder! For my November goal (which is almost half over - eek!) I’m going to continue on my short story (set in the same world). I think I’ll continue with the seat-of-my-pants writing for now, since outlining seems to be a bit of a procrastination trap for me.

    So yeah, I’m going to try to write more, and messier, haha

      Outlining can be a real time suck. Sometimes it also takes away my energy to actually write, like i already figured out what happens so writing it doesnt feel as good.

      I think figure it out as you go can produce some amazing stories and concepts-- so if it works for you then you should go for it :) Stephen King for example never outlines & it’s worked for his career lol

      Good luck with the rest of this month! I look forward to reading more of your work :D
