Getting words

I'm making exciting progress today. 1500 words so far today.
I'm now in the midst of getting yesterday's goal word count.

Today is the 4th of July though. I very much doubt I will get to today's word count.
But I've very hopeful that I can begin to make that up this week.

I think though that I'll keep my goal word count right around 1300-1500. Anything more and I'm more likely to not bother.

I'm still in the very beginning of the story. It's not going well. My characters aren't thinking, feeling or acting as individuals. But scene progress is made.

I want to focus on that for a change. Just get the rough draft out. Learn the character voice better as I go, rewrite the early scenes to match once I'm done.

'Here, Here' to writing fast and perfecting later...


Oops, but lest I forget. Starting over at this moment.
I don't care how bad it goes, just keep putting words and moving the plot forward.

Let me see how long I can make this story.

about 2900 words today!
