Day 27
I've worked on my story a little bit so far today. I'm going to try to put it at least a thousand words. Sorry the posts for my story have gotten so lame. I just need a refresher. They'll get better, I promise!
This is the test time. You have to hold on even though you're being challenged. While you don't have a word count, strive for quality content. Work with each scene to make it as impacting as it can be. You're doing great and I'm really proud of you! Just keep it up. ;-)
Hang in there! I know what it's like to write out of your comfort zone. Listen to Steve, don't worry too much about word count--that will come later. For now, appreciate the time you have to dream, to discover where your story is going, and how it wants to tell itself. Interestingly enough, I'm in a similar point in my novel--I'm doing more thinking than writing. It's decided to take another turn, and I'd very much like to know what that turn is.
Yeah, part of the problem is that I'm kind of unhappy with what's happening in my novel and I need to decide whether it's something I can use for good, or something I need to dump
