Today marks fifty days since I've started this project. I've made a lot of progress! First, I'll talk about today's progress, then I'll go into the milestone report. This will take place of the weekly progress report.
Quite a bit of good writing in today, as well as some brainstorming. I'm going to try making this blog flashier sometime soon, just to make it more pleasing to the eyes. I got another good chunk of chapter five done and if I progress like I did today, I may be able to have this chapter done by tomorrow. I'm also starting concepts on cover art for this book. I haven't made any decisions or anything, but I will likely do up some sketches for feedback's sake.
Milestone report
Last milestone report: Never!
Next milestone report: Day 100
I will do this on any large day number that marks a milestone in this project. This will probably be 50, 100, 150, 200, 300 and 350.
I really can't believe it's already been fifty days since I started this project. I'm still really enjoying it and I do try to work on it every day, even if there are days that I don't do anything. Over the last fifty days, I have written nearly five chapters of fiction, eleven pages of background encyclopedia work, and I have drawn numerous concept sketches. This is a full-colour drawing of Rosehips, for example, this is a picture of Bluebell welcoming you to Lemon Forest, as well as Lemon Forest itself, and this is a concept picture of Wildflower. There are also several others I have not made public, some of them being too rough, unfinished, or just secret! In addition to these drawings, I have also made a Rosehips doll. She sits on my desk and sends me inspiration.
That is my progress, so far, since day one of my project. I still have 315 days left to go.
I just might make it.

Day 29 + weekly progress report
Eeeshhhh. No, I haven't died, and nor have I given up. Just this past weekend has been busy! I was at a wedding and Halloween party (not the same thing though) on Saturday, I was working on homework yesterday and homework today. So yeah, not a whole lot in the writing department, I'm afraid. Tomorrow is my busiest day of the week, but I hope I'll at least get SOME writing done. I usually manage well enough on Tuesdays. I'm really sorry for the lack of updates. I'm not giving up, though!
Weekly progress report
Once again, I didn't meet my goal of finishing chapter three. That's all right, though; it will all come in time. I really didn't get much done at all in the past week! That's no good! As I'm going away this weekend, I'm going to have to work especially hard on Tuesday and Wednesday. I'm going to try my hardest to complete chapter three this week, but I won't beat myself up about it.
I've decided not to do NaNoWriMo after all this year. I'm working on AACG and Rosehips, so hopefully that will be enough. I also have other things on the go, such as singing lessons and other things, so I'd rather focus on that. Plus, I'm writing plenty without NaNoWriMo!

Day 22 + Weekly Progress Report
Past two days have been completely without work, so my aim to complete chapter three failed, sadly. I was really busy yesterday; a friend of mine got married and I was really too tired to write when I came back. Today I've been on the move and studying for tomorrow's Spanish exam, so I didn't manage to get much writing done. Tomorrow will probably yield more creativity, or I hope so. I should be able to get chapter three done by this weekend, I think, though this weekend will also be quite busy.
Weekly progress report
Since last week, I have completed chapter two and gone to chapter three. I also did a character sketch for a new character, named Wildflower, and I've gotten some work done on the encyclopedia as well.
Clicking the Google ads will also help me out with fees for the book!

Day 15 + weekly progress report
Today's progress and other news
Back from my brief vacation! I had a great time, and I managed to get a lot of work on the personal encyclopedia done. I didn't work on the novella as I was away, but I wrote several entries on the fairies, elves and creatures of the Lemon Forest.
Today I got a bit of work done. I've slowed down a little but I'm heading into midterm season. In addition, I've got lots of other stuff going on this month, including two weddings, two or more Halloween parties and a weekend trip to Montreal. A . . . bit busy. Then, next month is NaNoWriMo. I'm insane but I'm going to try and work on NaNoWriMo daily . . . and work on Rosehips daily. While still going to university. Yeah. Goodbye, life!
Weekly progress report
Since last week, I managed to complete my Rosehips doll (she can be seen here). I also worked on eleven pages worth of encyclopedia information, which I may compile to a full project once I have completed this book and, possibly, other Rosehips books. I haven't written much on the novella itself, though. I only have about a chapter and a half. I'll continue working away at it, though!

Day 8 + Weekly progress report
Today's progress
I'll be honest: I really didn't get a whole lot done. I have excuses, but no good ones . . . mostly due to school work and house work. I wanted to write for the past hour, but instead school work
took up my time. I did a lot of cooking tonight, too, and that didn't help.
My Rosehips doll is looking pretty cute, though! Her entire body is almost done. Her head and legs just need to be sewn on. After that, I will have to make her clothes, paint her face and do her hair. I'm still not sure what to do about her wings, though.
Weekly progress report
As of last week, I have written half of the first chapter, nearly finished the first illustration
and gotten quite far on the doll. However, I'm certainly not making the progress I would like to be. I will have to set a time each day in which I can write, and I will have to do it alone because I am fairly easily distracted.
Henceforth, I set this time from 9:30-10:30. Every night I will have to take that hour to write, now. That is my second, smaller goal.
Talk to you tomorrow, and I'll let you know how the writing hour goes.
