I have no idea what I just wrote. I do know that I packed 4,396 words, which is the most words I’ve written in one day, in a long time. And, incidentally, I hit 100,278 total words today. I credit my newly burgeoning habit of writing every day, thanks to NaNoWriMo, and my supportive friends, […]
NaNoWriMo – Day Nineteen and Twenty
I’m still at it, and running out of steam! I’m glad the weekend is coming, because then I’ll get that big block of time both before and after writing. Jack and Oliver are currently getting drunk at the tavern in Lyme Regis. I don’t know the name of the tavern, but one I’m inventing here […]
