Seventy Days of Sweat, Round 2
Today is the kickoff and I'm back to story wordage, even though I'm not done with my bios and timelines. I'll keep working on those on the side. I need between 750-1000 words a day to stay on top. Since tonight is TV night with DH, I planned to get those words at work.
Ha. After a three-day weekend? No dice. Too much to catch up on, AND Little Boy gets his flu shot this afternoon, AND one of the Four Mewses has an appointment for yearly vaccinations and we're taking one of the dogs along for his cortisone shot. Many needle sticks in store today. And THEN I need to get the grass seed down on all the huge dead patches of our yard before the scarce and blessed rain tomorrow.
Total words managed this morning: about 170. Hey, at least it's something.
Kicking off with a deficit is a less-than-auspicious beginning, but I'm confident I can make it up.
Watch for a challenge wordcounter, so I can see how many new words I write even as I begin to cut and revise.
A shout out to my fellow Forumites and Sweat participants, Precie and Deniz (you did sign up for round 2, right?), and then it's back into the fray for me.
Oh, and a friend from my BabyCenter birthclub has worked up some awesome cover drafts for me, to use in case I do enter the Amazon contest. I'll try to get those up soon.
