Project: Awake Into Darkness (redux)
New Year’s Resolution Status: Safe.
New Words Today: 2569
Present Total Word Count: 17,739 words
Goal: 100,000 words by July 1
Things Accomplished in Fiction: Conversation with Marlise turned into out-and-out altercation; found the right Paul and his magical tower/insurance company skyscraper; discovered things are more complicated than they look; Ezra is a sneaky little trespasser; scored a safe place to spend the day underneath King Street Station.
Things Accomplished in Real Life: Went to post office again; went to bank to cash/deposit a couple of checks; did a smidge of grocery shopping; began book review for magazine; watched the maintenance dude FINISH MY KITCHEN WORK, YAY! Next up: closet work. It might actually, hypothetically, maybe be finished tomorrow. All suitable appendages are crossed.
Reason for Stopping: Need to clean/re-set-up kitchen for what is hopefully the very last time. Am hungry. Might get a little more work done tonight, might not.
Total Fiction Words Composed in 2008: 106,341
Methinks you need a new goal. :)
No, that goal is fine. I’m able to sort of take my time on this one, and that’s nice — but I’m just keeping tabs on what the actual deadline is. I’ll almost certainly beat it, I know.
