No One Reads This Blog

You ever have a blog that is literally just for you. That's Ink and Sweat. This is just a blog for me to write things to myself, document my writing and working out, and to put everything down instead of trying to write it in a diary. Today I am tweeting about the office - live tweeting the office. I am also looking for book blogs to send review and promo requests to. You can see my progress and the book blogs that are out there here.

I also tweeted that I was looking for book blogs that accepted review requests, but that's not really gone anywhere.

How about what I'm reading at the moment!

This.......

I know I'm reading a lot of books at once, but I can't really help it.
I have a goal to finish these and then I have a ton on my TBR coming up. You can see reviews for all of them here - http://www.reviewsfrombeyondthebook.blogspot.com


There is no relaxing for Thanksgiving, I'm going full speed ahead with two co-writing projects, a pen name project, a new Zombie novel, and three ghost write stories. Onward and upward.

Thanks for reading if you did :)

What's Going On Writing and Sweating

I've been horrible at blogging lately, sound familiar?
It's on account of the ghostwriting, homework, and writing, writing. I have two upcoming deadlines so it's been nuts. No excuses though. I have to do much better.

I ran one day this week and that's sad. I like to get in two - three along with 3 workouts that aren't running during the week.
I've eaten horribly as well.
I've either gone for the whole day forgetting to eat, or eaten a lot of chips and vegetarian nachos last night. They were delicious.
My dog had surgery and is currently wearing a cone so he hasn't been able to go walking up the mountain with me.

. 

I am still doing Body by Vi but this week has been more eating breakfast and drinking lunch. I also got some Hydroxycut drops to put in my water which are supposed to curb hunger. I've stayed the same weight, and I'd like to lose about ten pounds by the time I go to Disney!!

First some very important goal setting!

re

You are seeing me meet one of the goals, with the blogging!!
I have been working on both ghostwriting and my free novella for my pen name this week. The ghostwriting is taking up so much of my time.
I need the money, but I'm working on writing more for me.

Thanks for reading!

Time to Sweat! and Ink and Um..

 Welcome and Happy Thursday!

  

So I have been a lazy smurf and not gotten the working out I needed to get done done. My brother went home to our parent's house for a week so the running came to a halt. I know I should just go out there and run on my own, but I'm lazy I admit it!

THIS IS HAPPENING STARTING TOMORROW 

While I've kept up the shakes and am not overall unhappy with my body, I could be a lot happier with it in a bathing suit, but of course it's too late because vacation starts tomorrow.

Writing has been going well. On top of about 4 ghostwriting jobs O.O I've been plotting out my novella for The Club, and TWO new paranormal series. One is YA and one is more adult.
I'm really excited about all of these projects and trying to find a way to work on them all together and separately.

Comment below and tell me what you are working on! Is it one project, several, or nothing. I am finding Scrivener to be VERY useful!



Also I'm on the YouTube now so if you want to check me out I post on Fridays. Tomorrow's vlog will be about Ghostwriting!




as always thank you for reading and Subscribe to my channel you know if you want to and all. Bye!

Ink and Sweat Born From Procrastination

If You're Here for the Sweat Read On
If You Want to Skip to the Writing Part Go to The Writing Part GRAPHIC below!

BELOW THIS NEW POST YOU WILL SEE THE FIRST POST I POSTED ABOUT BODY BY VI BECAUSE I AM STILL USING IT AND STILL LIKE IT. IT WAS NOVEMBER ''14 when I STARTED and here is what I look like right now for comparison.

Now to me and probably you this doesn't look like much of a change, but these are my stats. Can I call them stats? In the below picture with the PJs this was the case.

172 pounds and 37 ' waist

In the lovely picture above I (currently) weigh 164.5 pounds and have a 35 ' waist so you can see Body by Vi has helped with my weight even though it isn't quite obvious in the picture.

THE OLD POST

***
Let's get it right out of the way. Here's my before picture. I know it's glamorous the pajama pants, the cut off head. I'm not where I want to be.

Now I'm no slouch. I work out in the mornings Monday - Friday. Usually I do cardio and weights alternating leg, abs, arms etc. I also run about two miles every Monday and Wednesday afternoon. I don't eat that horribly, but I could always do better.

I am starting Vi because I don't lose weight the way I used to. I'm 31. Hang on I'll get you a picture of my top half. :)

There I am! Okay so it's been a week (I realize at the beginning of this post I said 3 days, but I slacked off on finishing it until now) and I am learning what I like and what I don't I haven't lost any weight as of yet, so I will keep you posted. The next post I will tell you about my struggle with being hungry, the pudding incident, and overall experience. This was just to introduce you to me and VI!

Here is what I did today.
I only did one round of the first workout because I did the Kettlebell workout first.

I did 50 squats because I felt guilty

I also couldn't do the windmill correctly so I have to do a bit of research on that one.

I have several things going on in the writing department. I knocked out ten thousand words in two days which was a huge record for me. I felt like I was whoring my words because I am writing them for someone else and won't use them myself at all. I need the money so cranking out that much was worth it. It would have been worth it had it been accepted, but my story was too dark (that's the normal thought) and the guy is an ass.

SO it wasn't accepted and I don't know if I have it in me to write another 10 k in two days.

Next I started a series for this site, this is a place people pay to read series.

Here is the story I am writing. It releases every other week.

Tonight I shall finish up two short erotica stories that I am also being paid for. More word whoring. -sighs-

Thank you for reading this!!
