That’s right. \u00a0In 2013 so far, I have written over 40,000 words.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

That’s amazing. \u00a0That’s almost a NaNo novel. \u00a0It might be more than I wrote in total last year. \u00a0And it’s only halfway through May. \u00a0I’m seriously impressed.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

And the big thing is that I’m doing it steadily, a little at a time. \u00a0I think I wrote about the Magic Spreadsheet<\/a>\u00a0before, but that’s what I’ve been using to keep my chain going. \u00a0I’m level 2 at the moment, which means I need to write a minimum of 300 words a day. \u00a0I’m averaging about 350 words a day (which will be good when I level up!), and it’s a good daily habit. \u00a0I can’t recommend it enough. \u00a0Of course, once I start editing, that will be a whole different thing.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Oh, and more news! \u00a0I have a plot idea for the next Advent Story (thank you, Dad!). \u00a0So there WILL be an Advent Story this year, and yes, Schrodinger will be back. \u00a0Maybe this year, I’ll even get things together enough to offer the first two Advent Stories as books. \u00a0Anything is possible!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
