I’ve hit the 50K word mark in my current work in progress. I’m pretty proud of myself! My plan was for this book to be 60-65K, and I was hoping to finish it by the end of this week, That might be a bit of a stretch, but it’s a goal.
Since I’ve started this blog, I’ve had not a single comment on it that wasn’t spam. Apparently no one reads blogs anymore. In all honesty, it’s been a good tool for me to hold me accountable without driving the rest of my friends insane with daily word count texts.
The single biggest part of writing success is actually sitting down and freaking writing. You can’t edit a blank page, and you can’t tell a story without actually sitting there and pouring your heart out. I have no idea if self-publishing this series is going to work or bomb, but I’m writing, which I love, and I’m learning a lot.
There aren’t many better ways to spend a summer vacation.
