Yea, Kept Putting It Off

I kept putting off posting here. Bad me. Again.

Anyway, I don't have my exact number tally right now in front of me. But, I think it's 6,111 words now.

I wrote two days last week and four days the week before. Maybe I'll up it back to four days this week (although, we have no clean dishes).

19k in 11 days though? Maybe. Maybe not. Who knows. I do know my goal was never really 50k - heh. I need a good balance between quantity and quality.

I so know I need to finish the rough draft of Shepherd, and I also know tracking my word count in the excel file has been fun and helped me to write more. This might mean I have to do that every month. I'd like to eventually shoot for 10 hours a week of writing until the rough draft is done, or 5-7k words a week. I really need to get a handle on time management, I tell ya.

That's the post for this week, unless I plow out loads of words and feel the need to report...er brag? Happy writing!

Not As Much As I Wanted....

But still I wrote at least. I mean, I've written 14 and a half pages in the span of 7 days. Most I've written in such a short period since I was working on my thesis novel!

Okay, need to be fast. Have to get back to work.

Yesterday 1.5 hours = 1093 words

Total: 3616

Hopefully I'll at least reach 25k. That would thrill me. I'm sorry, but I just don't have the spirit of most NaNoers - I hate padding just to up the word count - that just makes more work when revising, in my honest opinion.

Here's hoping the big business planning meeting gets over with before the expected 4pm time (I brought my laptop just in case). Happy writing!

Yes, I know, I'm lazy

Okay - I meant to blog last night, but I go caught up in other things. It happens. For me, a lot.

Anyway, I didn't write last weekend. I felt the psuh to finish Halloween Quests on EQ as they ended Sunday night, and I wasn't feeling well on Sunday. There, it's the truth, not excuses.

I did write yesterday, though.

Yesterday's total about 50 minutes = 778 words! (btw I edited Friday's post - I had the wrong word count for the day)

Grans Total = 2523!

One tenth of the way to my own personal goal, and one twentieth to the NaNo goal. Today, I need to try to ignore house cleaning and Everquest (bank rearranging on 14 characters and a guild bank of all things) and shoot for like 3500. Not sure if that can happen before my husband gets home and we need to go food shopping. We'll see. I did get up before noon, which is a plus.

Wish me luck, and I might blog later.

By the way, it looks like the meter is working again, so I'll go fix it up right now.
