So, in the last week or so I’ve accomplished little on the book, however, I am proud to say that I just broke 10k words on Part 4! Officially I have under 14,000 words to write before I hit my goal of 100k, but the end is so near I can almost taste it. But, [...]

Word Count Today
Well, it’s been a semi-productive weekend. I got a lot of non-writing stuff done, however, that’s no concern here. The big news for me is that I finished the first re-write of part 1!!! Woo hoo! So, I am now going to include rewrites in my word count totals!
That being said, without further ado…

Distractions, Distractions, and More Distractions
So the last few days have not been overly productive, writing-wise, but it was not a complete bust. My brother made extensive notes on part one so I spent some time Saturday and Sunday nights tweaking part one a bit. So that makes two people so far that will go on the inside of the [...]

Word Count Today
Today was a pretty productive day. Word count before I retire for the evening: 81,812 words.

So, in my writing today I had to actually stop and think about a scene before I could write it. Usually I just fly by the seat of my pants, but I found myself staring stupidly at part 4, looking for a way to get myself where I wanted to go. After breakfast, a cup [...]

Word Count Today
Total words, as of this moment, including only first drafts of all parts, currently equals 79,052 words.
This total does not reflect my recent reworking of Part 1 (as I’ve only fixed about half of it) LOL.
I will try to update daily as I write.

Greetings and Salutations

Begun in November 2007 for National Novel Writing Month (NaNoWriMo), what started out as a frantic 50,000 word challenge has taken on a life of its own. My current word count is well over 75,000 words, to be [...]
