It's all in preperation for my own 10k tomorrow. That's right, 4500 words of outlining/prompting :) I wrote an entire detailed timeline of my novel, so now it shouldn't take quite so long for me to get started on 10k days :D Really, it's quite a bit of pressure off my shoulders to have it all down on paper now, like now I actually KNOW that there is a beginning, a middle, and most importantly an END to this thing. Yay for closure! Hope all had a productive day-- my word count didn't hit goal, but my spirits and organization did. That's a win in my book. well, it wasn’t pretty, but I hit 4500.

Hope all had a productive day– my word count didn’t hit goal, but my spirits and organization did. That’s a win in my book.

Actually, I surpassed it. I was writing lots of character journal entries, then I started a story starring one of my newest characters, and the writing just took off. I'm sitting at 11,006 words! To those still writing: Keep going! You can do it! :D Now I've got to go post those character journal entries, then hit the sack. :) I did it! :D I reached 10K. Actually, I surpassed it.

I've only corrected about 850 words but I am making some progress. I keep re-editing and re-editing. It seems I could go on doing that forever. I’m not getting as much done as I’d hope either.

I'm going to try and sneak more in later. Harder to get writing time in while son and/or husband is home, but I'm excited enough about this next chapter to make the effort.
