Writing Journal, 22 February 2023: Decent numbers and another plug for my upcoming event because I would love to see you there

Hi once again.

I wound up having decent numbers this week. Would I have preferred to have an extra hundred words over what I made it to, or maybe an extra hour or so of revisions? Maybe, but I am appreciating how I am keeping consistent week by week. The more I get those weeks under my belt, the better writing year I’m going to have.

I wanted to take a second to let you know about me making a public appearance you may or may not know about. Anyway, you can find out about it below.

Shameless Plug for my Public Appearance Starts Here

Usually, I don’t want to use this blog just to promote something that I’m doing. However, there is an event that I’ll be at this weekend I wanted more people to come to, even though I have discussed this here on the page before.

I’ll be participating in the Local Author Fair at the Johnston Public Library, Saturday, February 25. I’ll be one of many other area authors there waiting to meet people from 2 to 4 p.m. that day. I’ll bring myself and copies of The Holy Fool for purchase, and I’ll also be there to talk about my upcoming series The Yank Striker.

Once again, thanks to the Johnston Public Library for the invitation, and I look forward to meeting old friends and new acquaintances there.

Plug’s Over, Let’s Get to the Numbers

Here’s the stats for last week.

Writing statistics for the week ending 18 February 2023:
+4,003 words written.
Days writing: 7 of 7.
Days revising/planning: 3 of 7 for 210 total minutes.
Daily Writing Goals Met (500+ words or 30 minutes of planning/revisions): 7 of 7 days.

Again, I could have used an extra hundred words, but I’d never be mad at those numbers if I get them again.

As usual, what follows is my plug to sign up for my Substack page and thus join my email list. The more I build my list, the more I’m building up a little online community and share my writing as well.

While I do appreciate you following this blog, I really would like you to subscribe to my Substack page. By subscribing to that page, you’ll not only be receiving my Substack newsletter, The Writing Life With Jason Liegois (the companion blog to this one), but you’ll also be signing up for my email list. I will eventually be opening some special contests, offers, and first looks at original fiction, poems, and other items. Just click the button below.
