Pieces & Word Counts

Have I mentioned how much this book does not want to be written in order? *headdesk

I've been writing my current novel all out of order too. It works for me even though I outline because the out of order scenes often make other aspects of the novel evolve.

The out-of-orderness has definitely been helpful for figuring out what happens in other parts of the book. And it's from the really random stuff, too, like off-hand comments the characters make. Can be weird, but so fun :)

You are superwoman with that wordcount.

Mine for June is sad. Like, maybe 11,000 words. But they are words I like. And I'm at 55K now in Thrice so...if I can really focus, I think I might still be able to finish in July? I'm thinking it'll be 75Kish. There, I said it. I will finish this book in July.

Hee. More like I am "has-no-life woman." ;-)

Yay for 55k in Thrice! I was wondering about that earlier tonight. & as long as they are words you like, that's what matters, right? :)

Also yay for trying to finish books in July! I would say 'wanna race' but that will basically guarantee that I don't finish this month! hehe

I'm with Jess, that word count is amazing! I'll take you as my inspiration once I start the Dark Girl's Hunter for good.

Good luck with the 40k goal.
