(metrics) We wrote today!
Posted on May 15, 2011
597 words on Advent Murders plotting, and the murder itself is plotted. Now, I need to start plotting the book, so I know how to weave the murder and the clues in. 1049 words on the plot summary for the yet-unnamed Dreams novella. It’s going to be fun. And now, dinner and then driving back.
(metrics) A little behind on the reporting, but not on the writing.
Posted on December 2, 2010
I’ve been writing every day, just not posting metrics, which is bad. So this is a little catch-up post, just to show the state of the wordcount prior to writing today, and to keep me honest. Then, it’s off to write more Molly and Schrodinger! I ended NaNo not winning, but with a word count …
(metrics) Day 28, more NaNo counts
Posted on November 28, 2010
I finished Chapter 25 of Last Rites today, and made myself cry. The entire end of this book is making me very emotional. *sniff* Gotta get through it, though. Between homework and work tomorrow, i didn’t have time to work on the sekrit project, but I did work on Rites, and I put Word on …
(metrics) Day 27, and more secrets
Posted on November 27, 2010
Secret project, that is. I’m having a lot of fun with it, and blew nearly through the first part tonight in about an hour. 30 minutes of writing, and over 1k! I really do well when I have the right mindset. And that’s what this 365 days of writing is all about, the right mindset. …
(metrics) a day behind…
Posted on November 27, 2010
I wrote last night, but it was on the big computer, so I had to wait until I got downstairs to post them. Trust me, otherwise it screws my numbers up. Taking a few days off from Last Rites to work on something new. Something fun. Something you might see kind of soon. Starting Count: …
(metrics) Day 24 – more NaNo and more words
Posted on November 24, 2010
Today was another hard day writing. I think I’m beginning to burn out: on this book, on NaNo, and on life in general. But I’m still writing, even if it’s just 300 words at a time. I can do this. I’ll work through it. Really. Really. Starting Count: 92114 Ending Count: 92510 Net Gain: +396 …
(metrics) Day 23 – just a day later.
Posted on November 24, 2010
Yep, wrote longhand last night – couldn’t face my keyboard. I think I’m starting to hit that end of book-itis that Nobilis Reed was talking about on Twitter this morning. It could also be that I’m tired and stressed – ah well, it’s a first world problem. 😛 I did write before I dropped off …
(metrics) Day 22, back to morning pages and NaNo
Posted on November 22, 2010
Yes, I’m still on track! I knew I wouldn’t hit 50k this month, and I’m okay with that. I’m writing every day, and I’m slowly inching forward on this novel. And let’s be honest: I’m never going to be the type of writer that can do Lowells in a day. I’m just not. But I …
(metrics) Day 21 – no NaNo, but words on a new project
Posted on November 21, 2010
Not a lot of writing today, as I was fighting with the website and then doing some audio work I’d promised folks. Then, it was realization that eek, December is in 9 days! NINE Days! EEEK! So I started the work that I should have started oh, a month ago, for a special treat for …
