I had a rough couple of days at work on Thursday and Friday, so I didn’t get any writing done those days. I just wanted to relax, read and sleep when I got home. I tried getting up early Friday morning, but I was pretty exhausted.
Anyway, so I have some catching up to do. I […]

Still on track! I made my daily word count, and I’m up to 24,025 total words. Another week, and I’ll be a third of the way through the novel.
Today’s writing went pretty well, although I think I may need to edit out some of what I wrote today. I’m not sure one of the scenes […]

I did it! I’m completely caught up now. I almost quit at 22,700 words, but I stuck to it and managed to type out the last 300 words tonight.
Things are actually going great with the novel right now. I’ve come up with some great new scenes that make the plot work better and give the […]

Last night’s writing (June 25) went great. I came up with some new scenes that I’m really happy with, and I also managed to get closer to catching up on the total word count.
Today’s goal is to make it to 23,000 words and to get everything up on the cork storyboard.

I ended up skipping another day again yesterday (Saturday, the 23rd). That got me quite a bit behind, and in order to catch up, I needed to write 3,000 words today to give me a 21,000 total word count. I didn’t quite reach that, but I did make up for some lost time. I managed […]

Well, I didn’t catch up, but I did meet my daily word count goal. I am now at 18,055 words. I’m going to try to just add a few extra hundred words a day so I can slowly catch up. That way I don’t have to try to fit it in all at once. I’m […]

I missed another day again. I need to be more disciplined. I was busy all day and never got around to writing anything at all.
I’ll make up for it today (hopefully!) and try to get ahead a little before the weekend begins. I have a lots planned for the weekend so I need to make […]

So, I heard about this incredibly addicting game called Desktop Tower Defense tonight. I got very distracted and played for way too long.
Warning: Do not click on the above link if you have any desire to be productive. If you don’t care, click away. It’s a lot of fun.
Despite the distraction, I reached my goal, […]

Today I went to Office Depot to pick up a cork board/bulletin board. After reading back over my novel yesterday, I realized I need a better way to keep track of details and when certain things need to happen. I created a storyboard a couple of weeks ago, but it was in a word document […]

I reached the 16,000 words mark! The writing went pretty well tonight, and I got through it quicker than I normally do. As always, it needs revision, but at least I’m getting somewhere.
I also read through the entire novel of what I have so far. It’s really not that bad. Some parts are quite good! […]
