Day 15: Cumulative Total 29,280
Got it done. Badly, but it’s done. This is the first manuscript I’ve ever worked on that I couldn’t wait to finish it so I could delete it. I find that pretty funny.

Continue reading →That’s enough for today. I’ve finished the first pass through the novel. Now I’m going back to the beginning and trying to flesh out the thin scenes there.
Continue reading →That puts me at half-way for NaNoWriMo but not quite half-way for a book with a word count goal of 60k. I had fun with the character rebellion yesterday, and that helped move the story along. I’m at the usual point where I have to wonder why I ever thought … Continue reading →
There we have it. Two thousand words today. Well, forty words shy. No matter. My characters rebelled and plotted my assassination. They took matters into their own hands and performed unspeakable acts with one another. Apparently, they were completely dissatisfied with my handling of things. That’s fine. I am completely … Continue reading →
That’s approximately 1,000 words for the day. Half of the daily goal, but I’m just not into it, and I’m ready to hit the hay. I’m still ahead of schedule by a little, so I’m not going to worry about it. This redundant drivel isn’t getting any better, but it … Continue reading →

I hadn’t specifically planned to write today, but I didn’t want to fall behind, so I logged slightly more than 2,000 words today to bring the cumulative total to 16,233. That is all.

Got the 2k plus a very few to spare for today. I’m at the usual place I find myself — thinking how droll this whole story is. It’s a romance with no romance. Serious problems. Blah, blah, blah. Usual stuff. Oh, well. Keep writing.
