Time to put the rest behind me and move on to today's new words.
My goal today is 490 [!!!]. That's what I get for not showing up in awhile.
As will be the case for most of the end of the book, I have no idea what I'm going to do with this scene. I really need to cut this whole sub-plot out but not sure I won't eventually figure out how to make it work and the potential is really cool. gah.
New episode of Once Upon a Time available on Hulu (woot). I guess I know what my present to myself will be.
And as I said, I am now at 490 words each day. I have until at least 6pm to get those written. And 490 words is really not that many so I should be okay [famous last words].
UPDATE because I really don't want to show up/it's too hard: I agree to only work until 6pm. At which point, I may watch Once Upon a Time. So I need only focus until 6pm. BUT I MUST actually focus on the next scene. All the other stuff I'd rather do can wait until 6pm!!
UPDATE: Wow, could they be any more 'famous'? I have spent the hour surfing. Not good
5:18. I have about 40mins to get 500 words written.
UPDATE 3 (5:39): Nothing happening so far. Everything is a bit tedious right now and I don't really want to invest in the characters. Not feeling it. Don't want to feel it. I get that something is wrong. I should be interested in the story. Why don't I want to put the time and effort in right now? Why aren't I enjoying this part of the book? I still have my billion dollar special effects budget. I can do whatever I want. Nothing has to be perfect- this is just fun. What fun thing can I do to my MC next? I don't have to write the planned scene- it can be whatever I want that moves the story forward. It does not have to be perfect.
I am going to sit here until 7:30pm too. I can watch Hulu this weekend, after I've met my writing goals for an entire week.
UPDATE 4 (6:03): Tired. I'm going to bed. Tomorrow I will come back with renewed focus- it's a promise.
