Good luck to everyone this year

 

Phew, first day is over! I started strong with 5,552 words Good to have some buffer for the upcoming office-hour-work-week.

 

That's a lot... I don't think I've ever managed 5000+ words in a day.

I got to 1245. At least it's over the 1.000 I need to surpass last years total. Starting a new story is hard. It took some time to get into it. But I did learn something about my main character. He has an eye for fashion, apparently.

 

1,400 on day one.

 

I didn't make it much past 1,000 but I'm confident the flow will pick up.

 

I'd not thought about writing the epilogue first. Actually, it feels freeing to write whatever bits of the story you feel inspired to write each day.

I wrote 1,100 words today. Slow but steady so far.

 

1.073 today. It feels like I'm going at a snail's pace. I maybe manage 500 words an hour and I have 2 hours of writing time in a day (between putting kids to bed and going to sleep myself). So it's hard to do more then that. Hopefully the pace will pick up as I get more into the novel. On a positive note, I am 208 words ahead of the pace I need to top last years total (which needs 1.055 words a day). So there's that...

 

Oh I miss-typed, guess I was tired or something 5052 words on day 1 were written over here!

Day 2 I got 1676 words, and it was a bit of a struggle completing the daily goal. Got about 1300 done before work, and then I had to sit down to finish at the end of the day even though I was soooo ready for bed

 

Day 3: 2,100 words. My best day so far, and I started quite late.
