Great Day

3500 words today (and counting). I should hit over 4000 words today which is much needed. That puts my tentative finish date around October 12. Great way to end the challenge…Maybe even some time left to write another book… I published the dictation book today....

Great Way to End the Week

3200 words today. I had a great power hour, though we had some technical issues. Thanks to everyone who stuck through them. Folks had great questions this week—I spent a lot of time answering them. 3200 words of fiction is a pretty good day, and I can’t complain. I’m...

Another Good Day

2600 words today, though I may get some more words in before bed. I had a pretty good writing day today. I passed the midpoint and am officially at the 26K mark, or around 52%. I had a realization today. Don’t be scared of the math—there’s a lesson at the end. This...

Cool News Today

3500 words today. Exciting announcement below. I had a killer day today. I hit my word count goal early in the day so that helped me write more than I needed. All it takes is another day or two of word counts like this and I’ll be way ahead by end of the weekend. Go...

More Progress Today

2500 words today. I did better than my daily minimum and I broke 20K today, which is exciting. It feels good to be ahead of schedule. I’ll try to keep this momentum as I’m anticipating a possible near-miss on Saturday due to some things I’ve got going on. So if that...

Finally Got Ahead

2600 words today. I’m officially caught up and about 100 words ahead of schedule, which is not a lot, but it adds up if I can sustain my current momentum. If I keep my current momentum of 2,000 words a day or better, I’ll be done by Oct. 15. I did a lot of dictation...

Progress

2100 words. Life struck today and honestly I didn’t think I’d get any words in. About 8PM I was staring the possibility of another zero word day in the eye. I got down to my writing computer and did a focused session of typing and eked out 2100 words, which puts me...

Catching Up

3600 words today. Exactly what I needed. I’m sitting at around 12,200 words. I needed to be around 13,000 today by end of night to be back on track after my goose egg yesterday, and I closed the gap considerably. I still have a looping session to do so that will...

More Progress

3700 words today. Very good day today, and exactly what I needed after a goose egg yesterday. I shot for 4,000 but 3700 brought me neatly to the end of a chapter, so I’ll take it. The last two Good Necromancer books have been exactly 50,000 words, so if that trend...

Goose Egg

0 words today. Had some stuff going on today that took me from writing. I’ll start up again tomorrow. Don’t forget the power hour tomorrow at 10AM Central. The power hour will be short this time because I have something going on in the morning unfortunately. It’ll be...
