I have a fun scene to write next. I probably need to figure out the transition of how she got there from last scene too but I might even wait until after "The End" to figure it out. Playing it loose today. :)
I am really excited that I met my goal yesterday. WriteTrack has my goal for today as 484 (as expected). Time to get started... (per typical, I'm sure there will be plenty of updates tonight).
UPDATE: So as usual, perfect has me by the throat "every word must be PERFECT" "whatever you do, do not write anything until you know whether it is the PERFECT way to get to The End." sigh. Just write. Revision happens only after I've written something down; revision will not work in my head.
UPDATE 2 (5:02pm): 876 words. The scene again is very rough and light on details but it's on paper- I can not stress the importance of that. Hurray for such incredible progress already! (another scene that's been planned for a year already is finally written out in only an hour).
On to my next scene...
UPDATE 3 (5:14pm): Ok, I'm back. So time to tink about my next scene. Again, I don't care about perfect, just going to get it out there in all its rough, crappy glory. kind of a different challenge, have no idea what should happen here. I'm assuming, in order for it to exist, it must be justified. Need some kind of conflict, things can not go smoothly. It'd be nice to learn a little something about someone. That too is important. Maybe hit an interesting piece of backstory. Well, nice thing is, I hit my word count goal for the day so I can finish this hour just struggling against the tide- I won't fall behind now.
UPDATE 4 (5:28pm): hah- perfect's getting a good stranglehold going again, just when I thought I had him whipped. Ok, time to get serious about this scene. It would be great to get this one on paper. It's okay if I don't know what should happen. I am going to write out the scene and just see what the characters say. Maybe something interesting will come up- this group has been known to gift me in that way before. :) and let's face it, this group is rife with enough natural strife that it should happen without any planning.
UPDATE 5 (6:12PM): 784 words in the next scene. I haven't even gotten into actually the scene. Instead it's been the transition part. But some interesting things happened. And it's not as terribly rough as the rest have been. And a couple of interesting things happened that I didn't expect but I like. Win/Win.
