I have a secret to tell. After watching you rocket up the word count ladder, I have been trying to stay above you, and finish my novel before you pass me.

I use anything I can as motivation to write.

Val, have you ever seen what a pumpkin writes? I doubt it’s readable. But it does count for words — as long as you remember to insert a space regularly. 😉
