Life Projects – Writing Exercise
I originally meant this to be usable as a blog posting, but it ended up a recounting of the projects I’ve done (photoblog, health, bread) instead. Rather boring. 1017 words written on a Southwest flight to San Diego.
Week in Review – Writing Exercise
Tired again tonight, 10pm before I started writing. Wrote about the first week back for the new semester. I thought it would be more reflective, but it ended up being more of a log of the week with a few emotions poured in. 648 words in about 20 minutes.
Describe My Moleskine Notebooks – Writing Exercise
I’ve been using them for notes for two years now. The first one was as an exercise to get over my fear of writing in empty books. I wish my 9th notebook was as interesting as the first one which was meant to be tossed away. 899 words and then wham – a wall and I was done.
Shifting my Schedule – Writing Exercise
Tired tonight and it’s only 9:00pm. Wrote about my plans for shifting my schedule for writing when I’m more alert – so far it’s only made me more tired. 880 words of garbage about that.
Early Memories – Writing Exercise
Didn’t feel inspired to work on the EET blog, though that was my intent. Instead grabbed an idea from Writing Down The Bones and wrote about my earliest memories – in this case all I could remember of things that happened in our first house.
Home Office Description – Writing Exercise
I tried for almost an hour to write more for my EET blog, but finally gave up. Instead I wrote 1,268 words describing my home office in 35 minutes. I ended up writing a bit about how I’d like to redesign it and what the steps would be to do that.
Writing Exercise on an iPad
636 words written on my iPad, mostly while riding in a bus. I documented thoughts about the new semester starting up and about the writing project. Pretty much a straight up journal entry. Writing on the iPad was not ideal, and I ended up doing a lot of editing on a PC to make it legible afterwards.
First writing exercise
While commuting on BART today I wrote 1,462 words summarizing my “100 Loaves of Bread” project. It was meant as the final post on the website to bring closure to the project.
I sat down to edit it this evening and it was so bad I decided not to use any of it.
