Best Day in a While

1130 words today. This is my best day in a while, for a few reasons. First, it’s nice to hit (low) four figures. I started and ended a chapter today. I crossed the 21,000 word mark today. Second, while today’s words did come slowly, they came a lot faster and smoother...

Zero, But Boy Was This a Great Day

0 words. I could have written today, but in one of those fateful moments, I encountered a book that completely changed the way I think about life. I was up all last night and today reading it. I’m still percolating on it and thinking about the best way to share it...

More Progress

512 words today. Still plugging away. While it feels like I’m not making progress, I did finish a chapter today. Thank goodness tomorrow is Friday. Talk soon.

Plugging Along

About 100 words today. But it’s something. The simple truth is that I really didn’t try to write too much today. I spent most of the day listening to music. The story’s fine—I’m a little unclear on what’s to come, but I have had some work stuff that have occupied my...

More Movement Today

400 words. I’m in a slow patch. Not quite sure where to take the story, but still moving. I think something is around the corner that will help me gain momentum. But today’s not zero so I’ll take it. Have a good night.

Progress

306 words today. Mostly spent the day cleaning up my basement. The 300 words helped bridge two sections that I had already written together that my creative voice told me to do. Tomorrow I’ll be able to pick up on Chapter 12… Anyway, have a good night. PROGRESS...

Challenge is Over, but I Persevere

2577 words today. 1500 or so came from the power hour (watch the replay here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dqZnMuwIkz8) The story is taking its time, but the word count today was good. Frankly, it’s in my sweet spot of 2000-3000 words per day, which is my normal...

Zero Day, But Good Day

400 words today. Not bad given all the things I had going on. I did a lot of planning today for Q2, so today was a productive day. Tomorrow I have a power hour so I’m looking forward to getting some more words in on the final day of the challenge. PROGRESS TRACKER...

Down Goes Michael

0 words so far today…I have officially bombed the challenge………. Had some personal stuff come up today as well as a ton of other issues that I had to address, including my cover designer sending me the first draft of the cover for Book 2. Anyway, I’m off to get some...
