Some days you're the Jedi, some days you're the Death Star
Pushing through a first draft to find the ‘shape’ of the story. Here are the recent totals:
1 Feb 3,000+ words
2 Feb 1,651 words
3 Feb 2,400 words
4 Feb 2,066 words
5 Feb 628 words
6 Feb 2,000 words
7 Feb 2,716 words
Right now, the shape looks like this:
Just like in Star Wars, as work is feverishly completed by evil cliché wielding riveter drones and the Storm Troopers of run-on sentences, I’ll have a Jedi on my tail.
Not that one. The really awesome one.

Super agent Mark McVeigh would make that outfit look good.
His mission? Shoot down the bad prose, focus on what's important and shake up the literary universe. Mark's a Jedi master at that!
Back to work - where's my coffee droid?!
