I am 14,000 words into this first draft. I was supposed to be at 16,000 today, but I went to visit my mom this weekend and have been helping her move everything to her new house (bye bye, childhood home). I am planning on getting to at least 15K by tonight, if not 16.

I hope all of you are having FUN and doing well! :)

I know you will reach 15,000 today and would not be surprised if you reach 16,000, as you'd hoped. Cheering for you!!!

[stephwooten]

Almost at 15,000! I love you!

[amygreenfield]

Great progress, Steph! And saying goodbye to a childhood home is always a big step. Wishing you lots of luck with everything!

[stephwooten]

Thanks, Amy! This is my last time being in this house--it's weird, yet oddly satisfying. I have many mixed feelings about it all. I hope you are doing well!

[blackeyedsue21]

You'll get there! I'm sure you did lots of subconscious brainstorming while helping your mom pack. Good luck!

[stephwooten]

Thanks! Almost there! <3

[kimmiepoppins]

I think you're doing pretty awesome! And mom was worth it, right?

[stephwooten]

Totally! She is worth everything and so much more.

[josiecv]

Steph, you'll make up the 2000K. If not tonight, then over the week for sure!

[stephwooten]

Thanks for the encouragement! I'm about halfway there. :)

14,000 words is great. You're really into the manuscript. Hope you can just keep going and keep enjoying it. Good luck!
