Robin Takes The Scenic Route


November Writing Challenges Days 15 - 21

11/22/2019

 
Thanks for coming back to check out this week's selection of lines. :) I appreciate you taking your time to visit. I got a chance to write with my fellow local Wrimos at a regional write-in. That's always fun and encouraging. So how are things going with your current project, dear Reader? Let me know in the comments below! :)

#1WordPromptChallenge & #MyNano2019Update Writing Challenges Days 15 - 21

Here's the list of stats for the past seven days:
  • Day 15 - Peace - Daily Word Count: 568; Total Word Count: 28112
    The very thing they hoped to achieve was lost to them in their lust for power and reverence, in their selfish quest to fulfill their own desires above all. For any True Child knows, there must be balance in Y'Dahnndrya. Great peace would be balanced by great war.
    And so it began, the War of Unity. (This line actually fits day 14's word, war, and in this way, I caught the word prompt. :D )

  • Day 16 - Oil - I didn't write at all on this day. :/
  • Day 17 - Water - I didn't write on this day, either. 8-O
  • Day 18 - Flood - Daily Word Count: 544; Total Word Count: 28656
    Line: When the fiery flood was seen to be relentless and it seemed all hope was lost, Shar'yll Chedrasdatir rallied the remnant to fight on and seek a new home, one free from the searing, sticky ooze.

  • Day 19 - Drought - Daily Word Count: 1792; Total Word Count: 30448
    Line: They range in color from russet to the color of pale sand, and their tails are feathered, able to fan out like birds.

  • Day 20 - Sting - Daily Word Count: 4088; Total Word Count: 34536
    Lines: Off the northwest coast of Genzet, there lies an island. This island is called Dayi Wareh, The Forgotten Ones, by the Ikhel'dura who live there.
    Today's #1wordpromptchallenge was #sting and while this passage doesn't mention the word, the sentiment sure comes across that way.

  • Day 21 - Soothe - Daily Word Count: 2217; Total Word Count: 36753
    Lines: Each of the shrines house a store of knowledge. Some are smaller than others. Yacan has the smallest lib'rarum... But in others, notably Mt. Charan Shrine in Shinnoah and Mt. Gild'n Shrine in Genzet, the lib'rara are huge... (You may have noticed the word prompt didn't show up. I didn't write anything pertaining to this word.)


All of these lines came from my Basic Overview of Y'Dahnndrya novelette. I hope to start my third story soon. Next week is Thanksgiving and I'll be prepping for that and trying to keep up with my word count. Tune in next Friday to see how that went and if I was successful. See you then!
