Half way. I needed to get to 30k today, but I didn’t make it. Five thousand words in one day is a lot for me, so I can’t complain. For me to complete more than eleven thousand words in a weekend is quite an accomplishment. Unfortunately, I have to average … Continue reading →
Made it to today’s goal. Tomorrow, to get back on track, I’ll have to hit 30k. I’m going to give it my best shot. I was working pretty steadily today to get the 6632 words. Ten thousand will be a little tougher. If I can at least get close, I … Continue reading →

Continue reading →I’m a few hundred words short for a “good” NaNo day, but I made good progress today. It’s certainly better than some earlier days. For the moment, the working title has absolutely nothing to do with where this story is at. I’ll worry about that later. I have to get … Continue reading →
Lousy day at work, but I had a fluid writing night tonight. I got just over the “NaNo minimum” at 1720, but given that’s the first time words have flowed since the 1st, I’ll be happy with that. Weeknights are difficult to get many more words on anyway.

Continue reading →Finally. Some words. Desperation words but words all the same. Lacking a better idea, I began writing my main character’s biography this morning. If nothing else, maybe it will serve as a detailed outline to use for revisions.
