Fast Draft Day 016

I admit, I’ve been getting a little discouraged with these 1K days. That’s not “Fast Draft.” Plus the month is almost over and I have at least 1/3 of a novella to write yet. Then I remember that I have made great progress this month, and if I need an extra week or so in May to finish, so be it. I’d rather have a solid foundation to revise than a bunch of crap slung on the page.
Speaking of which: does anyone want to do a MayNoWriMo? I’m not sure if I can commit to 50K in May, but I’ve had a few people ask me about it on Twitter. I’m considering it - but I do wish I’d already finished BGW. (By the way: Coyote Con is postponed indefinitely because of Deena’s health. We’re hoping to take a look at our fall schedule.)
Today’s words: 1,235
Total: 26,241
Snippet:
“I am a creature of magic, blood, and yes, violence. The dreams we shared are only the beginning of my true self revealed to you.”
“Then show me some more.”
P.S. I won’t be shooting for Dark & Early tomorrow. I’m just too tired and too stressed at the Evil Day Job. I’ll shoot for a fairly early day on Saturday instead - and hope I can squeeze in another 1K over lunch or tomorrow evening. If I post a day 017, it’ll be late as a result.
