Today's Progress

Just a quick note to let you all know how I did today (assuming you're interested, of course). I gave myself an hour of blog surfing, and then shut the computer down and handwrote for an hour while the kids napped. I cranked out 424 words in that time, which is a lot for me, so I was pretty pleased. But then, when I was driving home from work (which is when I get all my best ideas...that, or swimming in the pool), I thought of a way better way to write the scene. So I rewrote it. Or, most of it, until I got to a spot I needed to mull over a little more. I did get 711 words on my rewrite, though.

So, today's total is: 1135 words in an hour and a half! I managed a 1k day for the first time in months! This calls for more dancing, people...join me! *happy dances around the blogosphere* I'm going to try this again tomorrow, and see if it's something I can actually stick to. Here's hoping. :)
