    Pre-Smart Dummies Schedule August 12-17th

    Pre-Smart Dummies is going to run a little slow this year. Honestly the whole event will be running slower. I want to make sure that more time is given to actually get a dummy done. This week we are working on story. Today and tomorrow I want you to look through the stories you’ve written. If you can’t find a book you like, then find a fairy tale, folktale, nursery rhyme ect you want to make. You can find public domain stores at the Gutenberg Project: https://www.gutenberg.org/

    If you are using a story that’s not yours, please make sure it’s in the public domain. Anything published before January 1st, 1924 is now in the public domain.

     

     This Week’s Schedule:

    Aug 12-13: Chose your story. If you have a story great! If not you can choose a fairy tale, folk tale or other story.

    Aug 14-15: Editing your story (or rewriting an old story).

    Aug 16-17: Plan Your Pages (page 4).

     

    I need to make a lot of edits on the Smart Dummies Schedule part of the planner. For now the planner can be found here: http://ngi.c96.myftpupload.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/08/Smart-Dummies-2019.pdf

    Edit: The price of the planner will stay the same.$15 total USD for the planner plus shipping to the US! This planner will a bit be longer in content and the calendar will be for the 6 months (instead of 2 months)!

    I’m still looking for a name for the Writing Challenge (feel free to post your ideas in the comments below).
