Progress report

This is why I should do my daily writing in the morning, before playing DnD or going out with Mum for dinner. It's now 2 am and I've only JUST finished my 500 words. I'm half inclined to count this as today's writing and fine myself $2 for not having finished before midnight.

Still I was awake enough that I probably wouldn't have slept anyway, so I think I'll let myself slid just this once. Which means I still have 500 words to write after I wake up.

Damn it. No more 2 am writing.

Daily Progress update

And we have LEADERS! Well, future leaders. Shadow "Shade" Brightmore and Damien "Dami" Ashtonson have made an appearence in Storm's Honour, at last. Which is not good for Amaro, although no one knows that yet. Tomorrow's writing will be fun, honestly.

I like stopping my character's hearts with sheer terror THEN breaking said hearts. *cackles evilly* The joys of being a writer.

Even better news is, I'm 747 words away from the 40,000 word mark. Which is half of what I've predicted Storm's Honour's word count to be. I'm starting to have doubts about that word count (100,000 is looking more likely), but at the moment I'm still keeping the goal at 80k, so 40,000 is going to be a big milestone. And at 500+ words a day, we're going to reach that very soon.

Yes, I did say 'we' are going to reach it soon. Without you guys to motivate me, I'd have given this up months ago. As I said to sis; Writing a novel is like having a baby. It weighs you down for months and by the end of the process you're screaming and vowing you'll never do this again.

Why am I planning TWO more of these things?
