“Reluctance” Progress

Posted on | 2 years, 2 months ago, in the evening | No Comments

Here are today’s stats for the dirigible/pony-express short story with zombies, the Goodnight-Loving trail, and a 19-year-old Union veteran who’s stuck with a mechanical foot.


    Project: “Reluctance”
    New Words Written: 2483 (not bad)
    Present Total Word Count: 3992 words
    Goal: 5000 words by November 29





    Details: I’m totally going to overshoot this one. First draft will probably top out around 6K, but I can cut it down later. It always takes me a couple thousand words to really find my footing; I’ve learned to just push through it, then prune it later. Regardless, this one is just a pleasure to write–a little gem of a thing, in its way. Not that I’m not having fun with Bloodshot, mind you, but this small piece feels a little more familiar … or something.
