Writing Accountability Post #2 and #3

So, yesteday's word additions to the 3-week book was in the area of 1,500.  Today's word addition to the 3-week book is a tiny bit north of 2,000.

In yesterday's defence, I started reading a book and didn't stop until it was time to make dinner (when I finished the book, anyway), which, whoops.

In today's defence, I wrote 1,000 words, remembered that Christmas is next week holy fuck, and wrapped all the presents that needed wrapping.  Then I sat down, and read another book.  Not entirely sure why I picked it up off the bookshelf, because I'd read it before and got partway through before realizing that, while well-written, there's no actual story.  At least this time, I caught on about six chapters in, rolled my eyes at myself, and tossed it onto the pile of books To Give Away.  Then I went to write another 1,000 words before making dinner.

Needless to say, while I'm happy to see that my wordcount stamina has increased over the last three days after months of writing hiatus.  However, the three-week book is probably going to be a three-month book, at this rate.

On the flipside, I feel I'm caught up on my Forged in Fire, and am idly considering digging out one of the two blacksmith stories that I was going to expand on/continue writing.

(And there goes another plot bunny, breeding merrily away.  NO.  STOP IT. *sprays water*)
