The Goose Egg Cracked

1300 words today. Today was a pretty good writing day. It wasn’t amazing, but it wasn’t bad, either. I’m just shy of my “current” average of about 1500 words per day. Sometimes my average is around 2000-3000 words. Other times it’s a bit lower. The key is that I’m...

Goose Egg, But This Goose Egg Has Promise

I took a zero on my word counts today because I got the opportunity to chat with family members back home. The stars aligned and I don’t always get to chat with family often, so I enjoyed that. Anyway, that is what I have tonight. Hopefully I’ll be less boring...

1500 Words Today

1500 words today. I’m almost at the 40% mark for this book, so I’m making progress. I also did some lawn work, which took me a while. Have a good night.

Still Writing a Chapter

1000ish words today. I’m still writing this super long chapter that I’ve been chipping away at for the last two or three days. I finally finished it, but it’s a mess. My thoughts are all over the place. I’m fine with that. I’ll review it tomorrow and streamline it....

No Words, But a Good Day

Had some drinks with friends and spent the afternoon helping a family member with their first book for publication, so that’s pretty cool. Also watched some more jazz fusion concerts. Typical Friday for me lately. I’ll get some writing in tomorrow.

Another Good Writing Day

1100 words today. I’m working on a weird chapter in Indie Author Confidential that is taking forever to write. It keeps getting longer and longer, but I haven’t made my point yet. Yikes…I predict I may strike a bunch of words once I figure out what I actually want to...

Signed a Book Today

A receptionist at a place I frequent surprised me today by pulling out a copy of Be a Writing Machine, asking me to sign it. 🙂 I was humbled, and it is always surreal to see my books in the wild. This is why you should publish your book in paperback. You never know...

Another Day on the Words

1700 words today. I could have dictated, but I felt like typing exclusively today. If I had dictated, I probably would have hit 2500 or 3000, but hey, I don’t have to be in beast mode every day to have a good writing career! I finished a section in Indie Author...

6200 Words Today

6200 words today. Boo-yah! And I didn’t spend that much time writing. I wrote several chapters toward the next volume of Indie Author Confidential. I dictated a couple of those chapters, which helped me cross more ground faster. I also dictated a chapter while waiting...
