So I finished the monthly goal around noon.
Now I just need to finish the story. only 25-30k more words to go!
Oy.
day 23, 31487 erm I mean day 22.
One of, if not the easiest, days of writing in this entire month.
And a scene I decided to write two days ago with a character that didn’t exist until about day five of the month.
Still, 2k words in about 45 minutes may be a record for me. This evening was so horribly rotten–took me two hours to get home–that I’m shocked I was able to decompress enough to write at all.
Of course, running always seems to burn out all of my anger. Maybe because my annoyance and hatred of running just overshadows everything else.
edited because i had marked this day 23. Not 22 [which is correct]
day 22, 1800
Was really hard not to blow off writing for research today.
Who knew Trieste was so interesting?
It’s still writing a lot faster. I just need more info on the steamship – so much on third class and first, so little on second class passage.
Day Twenty-Two, 1881 words
Well, ostensibly week two is the hardest but I’ve been having the most trouble with week three. Partly because I’ve just been busy (and other RL things) but in part i’ve had trouble with the writing–i keep thinking i need to do research, etc–and although I have a sense of the ending I can’t quite figure out how to get there from here.
Still I’ve had a lot of interesting and surprising (to me!) developments in the story, and if I’m not making up large amounts of lost time, I’ve stopped losing ground and I’m adding a little bit every day….
