Time to reach the end already!! 70,002-> headed to The End

April 15th... wow.  and now it's July 5th
Still no progress with the writing.
Although... the book is plotted out now (just completed that last night) but I can't seem to get interested in the actual writing.  There's no hook! that's what's missing.

I do like my last blog post though.  For fun, I would like to see how it all ends up.  Forget how much work revision will be and how depressing it will be if I have to rework everything.  Just focus on the fun of creating a whole new world.  

Why not??

And because I haven't met a deadline that hasn't ruined me yet... why not announce another one so I'll be sure not to meet it?  I just can't seem to help it.

So by the end of August, I need to write "The End" and mean it.  (Note: not that I won't have a few scenes to re-imagine because they spoil too much.)  But still, everything that's left in my outline from current point to the end needs to be done.

My current word count is 70,002.  I would like to add another 30,000 words (or around that...)

30,000 words divided by __ days  27+31 = 58 days -18 (weekends) = 40 days
750 words/day  

Starting today!!

[Wait! I just need to update this with... yah! I plotted out the book to the end. It's a real end! Something was actually accomplished in this book so maybe the reader won't feel like it was a waste of time.  So yah, I plotted out the rest of my book!!! My fingers should be flying right now, why aren't they?"]

And I made up The Sentence!  about 30 words.  so ! there you go, i am so close.  Now I need my 750 words for today!!!

(To finish this month, 27 days, is about 1200 words/day)
