7,830 words, two minutes on the clock.

Didn’t break 8K tonight, but hey, I gave it my best shot. And 78030 words is still a damned good number.

Ready to write Jack’s darkest moment. And then Talia makes her biggest decision of the book. And from there, the ending. So close I can almost touch it.

So, gonna start on tomorrow’s word count. Awake and have plenty of Diet Coke. Gonna get as close to that ending as I can. And finish this book!

Back at it…

So, about 7:30 PM, I crashed and burned. Had to take a power nap. Back at it. Word count has taken a direct hit today. No prediction on how far I’m gonna get since it’s almost 10 PM. Thunderdome might have kicked my butt and won this round.

Still gonna carry the ball from the two yard line. May get sacked. May touch end zone. May have to kick a field goal. Hey, I got options here!

Couldn’t sleep, so got up early and was at the keyboard by 8:20 this morning…so, it was nice to cross the 100K mark before my dreaded DMV visit. Feel like I accomplished something today at least. Based on my numbers, I see that I may be up and awake and at the keyboard, but mornings don’t seem to be my most productive work (isn’t that shocking????) Body’s up but writer brain’s like, “Dude! Ten more minutes. An hour tops!”

Progress will now halt until I get this crap taken care of…and the Diet Coke situation is getting critical. Last 12-pack has been opened. And the peanut butter’s gone. So, a trip to the store, too.

Hopefully, I’ll be back soon to pound out the rest of this book. Will probably still need Tuesday’s progress, but hey, I thrive on deluding myself into believing impossible things.

Laters…
