I wrote a little over 1,000 words tonight, giving me a total word count of 35,131. I’m trying to come up with some new kind of schedule that will allow me to still be completed with the novel on September 1st. I am also going to schedule it so that I can take one day […]

Wow, it has been a long time since I have worked on the novel. Various reasons: work, wedding, Harry Potter reading, procrastination. However, I finally did some writing tonight. So, now I am up to 34,103 total words. I’m probably supposed to be somewhere around 50,000 now, but I’m just going to ignore that […]

I’m not even going to mention how many days I have missed writing, but just know that I’m very behind. If I make the September 1 deadline, it will be a miracle.
But I did still manage to get some writing done tonight. I wrote a little over 1,000 words so now I’m up to a […]

Sauna.
That’s what my apartment was last night. My neighborhood has a tendency to have power issues when the heat exceeds 90 degrees, and yesterday was no exception. I actually had limited power rather than no power at all, but only enough to turn lights on. And they would dim to almost being entirely out every […]

I met my daily word count goal tonight. I’m actually not sure if I want to keep the scene that I wrote tonight in the novel, but it gave me a way to transition from the scene before to the next day. I am going to have to go back and reread the scene to […]

I now have a third of my novel complete!
I don’t have much to say other than that. Spent a big part of the day writing, finished an important and fun scene, learned that it’s hard to sit in the sun and write when it’s 90 degrees outside.
All in all, it’s been a good day, and […]

Met my daily word count tonight! That’s the good news.
Bad news is I determined how far behind I am. I’m supposed to be at 32,000 total words tonight, but I’m only at 27,105 words. That’s a little less than 5,000 words behind. Yikes!
But, the story is progressing well, and the plot is developing nicely. The […]

I missed another day of writing yesterday, but I did manage to get at least 1,000 words down today. So, I’m up to 26,111 total words now. Not bad. I’d really like to get caught up though. I probably need to take a day off from everything and use it to work on the novel. […]

I’ve gotten incredibly behind. So behind I don’t even know how many words I’m supposed to have completed. And I don’t see this being solved anytime soon with the holiday tomorrow. I’ll probably end up doing something tonight after work and then all day tomorrow.
I’ve got to snap out of this laziness. A novel can’t […]
