The Learning Dreamer

I don't know if this is really necessary to write here. It's a personnal challenge. I already don't see the purpose. On the other hand, I find it useful to practice. For your information, I published 2 articles on Medium.com. My handle is  @manonf . Am I rambling too much? I wrote this post with the help of Prowriting Aid's AI

Review of  Westside Oracle by T.J. Deschamps   This was fun to read! It’s the story of the woman who makes the impossible to escape from her husband. She learns she has magical faculties. It’s based on mythology. The main protagonist is in her early 40s. I could relate to her when she refers to her teenage year, and personal self-esteem and self-image. The text it well written (I’m not a native-English) and the story flowed very well from action to internal and external dialog. When you read the story, you see what happens as if you were watching a movie. I had a good time and I laughed many times while reading it. To me, this book delivers its promises. I received an advance review copy for free from  BookSirens , and I am leaving this review voluntarily. Am I rambling too much? I wrote this post with the help of Prowriting Aid's AI

I met with my writing buddy today.  I want to finish every story I started. I have too many unfinished ones.  And this bothers me.  Am I rambling too much? I wrote this post with the help of Prowriting Aid's AI

okay.  I'm exhausted and I have been sleeping awake while watching Bodies , a Netflix series. Time travel shows always intrigue me. I always get lost at a certain point. If I'm sleepy, it's worse. But if you can, have a look! Am I rambling too much? I wrote this post with the help of Prowriting Aid's AI

Today, I wrote a refence lettre in French and in English for a friend and ex coworker. He is one of those person who were surgeon and now, can't even practice medicine in our provnce, even if he did all of his classes.  I hope he can get to work one day as a MD somewhere else than the country where he was born!

Today, I visited two Christmas craft fairs. Some people make very nice things but some, could benefit from waiting a little longer before making them public. On the other hand, they price their items cheaper. It is fair.  Am I rambling too much? I wrote this post with the help of Prowriting Aid's AI

So, today, I did a CEO power sprint for 25 minutes. I updated an excel sheet with my daily word counts. I'm not done yet. I'll need to finish it tomorrow.  Actually, I need to work as my own CEO for another 25 minutes to complete that weekly time block. Am I rambling too much?

Ok, so, today, I listened (then watched later) this man who only sell his books in person. He gave a class on how to sell in person. I learned that you need to  - tell them you what you will tell them - tell thm - tell them what you just told them.  I think it makes sense anytime you want to tell a story, and you want the person to listen to what you have to tell. I also learned that we have to practice in small events before aiming a book conference, for example. Even a craft show in you own town would at lest make you practice. --- I also dreamt of my story but now, I forgot. This makes me furious because it was a great idea. --- I need to dras my future me. Like a vision board. Am I rambling too much? I wrote this post with the help of Prowriting Aid's AI

It's okay. I'd rather go back to day zero again. The goal is a 10 day strike, then a 30 day strike. Then a 50 day strike.  Today, I learned that Joe Solari will be in charge of a new organization that will replace 20booksto50k. I hope the spirit will stay the same. I'd love to have access to it online, but they announced this will not be possible. I can understand : we, the online watchers, do not cover the costs for that service. I'm sure they have other projects for this. We shall see.  The next days, I will put down some notes from that conference right here, instead of keeping them in my head and forgetting all those golden nuggets! Am I rambling too much?

It’s already starting: I forgot to write here yesterday, although I progressed in my story yesterday. I also attended a co-working meeting that ended up to be a lecture on how to write sequences and transitions in stories. I learned a lot, but I expected a different activity. Tonight, I’m hoping to attend a real coworking meeting so I can validate if my text is translatable to a blogging platform. Here, I don’t care that much how good it’s written, even if I use AI to correct my grammar. Am I rambling too much? I also have a life on Instagram and Goodreads

Last night, I came back late. To be frank, I totally forgot to come back and update. Today, I am done. I put down bushes. For this, I used these alternative saws: the vibration is painful. So as I write this, I'm waiting for my back to relax. I didn't write anything yet today. Yesterday, I wrote much more than I expected and I went shopping withy parents. They are old and they panic easily but they are fine.  What I learned  When you put down small trees, you need a saw for edges and another one to cut the trunks at the base. I wished I could remove the roots but: I didn't have the tool. Tonight, I'll read and sleep. I am exhausted. Am I rambling too much? I also have a life on Instagram and Goodreads

Ok. Today, I'm off work, with the new compressed schedule hours.  Here is what I have done now: 20 minutes CEO : planned November 2023 1 hour  student CEO : I watched the 4th session replay morning yoga breakfast with too much coffee. Now, I will come back here and confirmwhat I will have accomplished according to my next planned tasks for today: at least 10 minutes to add new words in  "Human Farm" ✓ ✓ start the next newsletter ✓ take a shower ✓ go shopping with my parents who are 1-2 hours away from me depending on the trafic). ✓ See ya in 12 hours, to see what I have followed through!

This is my last day of work until Monday. I already know what this "every second Friday off" will be used to: writing, taking care of my old parents, which involves a 1-2 hour drive to go. As you can see, these blog post are more a journaling experiment but, I don't care. This is an experiment. Last night, I got to talk to Adrienne , from Ninja Writers . She helped me reframe my thoughts around a new subscriber to my first Substack newsletter.  Let's see if i will follow through with the writing: I'll be back tomorrow! Am I rambling too much?

 OK.  I wrote right before bed, and now I write right before I go start my breakfast.  After work, I plan to take time to write, to rewrite, edit, paint and draw. And also, I want to call my parents. And continue watching The Bear . I'm like that: so many projects.  Am I rambling too much? I also have a life on Instagram and Goodreads
