Robin Takes The Scenic Route


November Writing Challenges Days 22 - 30

11/29/2019

 
If you've been following my blog, you'll note I've done something different with the dates in the title. You're probably asking yourself how I can share posts from the future. I'm happy to say I'm not. I won't be writing tomorrow at all, and I've already written the line I want to share for today. I won't have the word count to share yet, but I can update that later. I just wanted to be certain this post went out on time. I was so busy prepping for Thanksgiving on Wednesday and Thursday, as well as super busy on Monday and Tuesday trying to get as many words as possible written. Whew! It's been a long week.
On with the challenge responses!

#1WordPromptChallenge & #MyNano2019Update Challenge: Days 22 - 30

The list of prompts for the week:
  • Day 22 - Treasure
    Daily Word Count: 3019
    Total Word Count: 39772
    Plants grow well in M'Neshunnaya. Whether that's because the climate and soil are good for them, or it's because the M'Neshunnayans take their job as nurturers of their planet seriously is hard to tell.

  • Day 23 - Trash - I rested on Saturday so no writing...
  • Day 24 - Chaos
    Daily Word Count: 2716
    Total Word Count: 42488
    Miyat winced. She hoped he didn't see it but he had.
    "What is wrong?" he asked.
    "It is nothing." But she couldn't disguise the paling of her tanned skin.
    "That reaction was not nothing." Zev shook his head. "This is why we learn to keep our emotions hidden. If an enemy can read your emotions, they can more easily defeat you."
    If possible, Miyat paled even more. She whispered, "Are you my enemy, then?"
    He shook his head. "I simply wish to teach you."

  • Day 25 - Stability -
    Daily Word Count: 4500
    Total Word Count: 46988
    Rain pounded down on Yacan. Thunder rumbled and rolled across the sky-dome... ...[the] cabin swayed dangerously with every gust of wind. Suddenly [the] door burst open and the Serafin entered, followed by Ammir Katin.
    "Gather what you need for an extended stay on the [forest] floor."

  • Day 26 - Inside
    Daily Word Count: 4010
    Total Word Count: 50,998
    She couldn't help but wonder, though. Had she come when first called, had there been a life-mate planned for her which she hadn't foreseen? Still, what might have been didn't change what had already occurred. She could only move forward from there.

  • Day 27 - Outside - Thanksgiving Prep Day...no writing
  • Day 28 - Feather - Thanksgiving...no writing
  • Day 29 - Skin
    Adept at changing his form, he was not - at least, not as much as he thought he should be. Tugansol had all the credit for saving his skin during his last match. His opponent should've won, if he was honest.


I am so thankful to have met my goal this year for Nano. I really thought I wouldn't make it this time. I was pretty sure the things I had to do for Thanksgiving, added to my projects still lined up which need to be finished before Christmas were going to be a millstone around my neck. But I did it. :)
Thanks to those of you who are reading my work, enjoying my posts, and encouraging me to continue in my writing. Your prayers and words of encouragement are so very much appreciated!
