So far so good Hello 55k or 74%...

Jun 08, 2011 22:38

Originally today was going to be productive as hell. I was so excited to write all day long. I'd made up my mind to go for quality over quantity (because lets face it I pushed for the 50k mark just to hit 50k last night and the last 1k isn't all that crash hot - hello revision haha)

Tonight was a bad night. I sat down late, at 7:30 pm instead of 7 because I had an eye doctor to see today, food to cook, puppies to feed and hair to wash...

And I really wasn't feeling it. I was tired and grumpy and thought I'd be lucky to hit 500 very badly written words...

To top it off, I somehow managed to set the word-war timer for one full hour instead of a 20 minute block and threw my hands up into the air thinking the night was lost.

But then jamileigh17 (thank you to her and Em as always) logged on and talked me out of my funk by quizzing me on a plot point, which then gave me my motivation back and voila:

5137 words later I'm at
55240



I should probably change that to a 90k goal... which would shift me to around 61%, but I think I'll wait a bit for that. I moved the plot along quite nicely tonight - she's almost at breaking point - MWUAH HAH HAHA

I guess this is a round about way of saying: Hey tonight was more productive than I originally thought it would be.
And - I think 5k is a nice round number to strive for on a weeknight where I've worked :D



Have I mentioned that I have no idea how I'm doing this? It's like writing itself or something...

blissfully tired, outlines, not-so-dead, 2011, writing, plotting, squee, wordcounts, tdp
