A New Year and then some

Posted on January 15, 2011 by

While I recover from an exciting bout of maybe-food-poisoning, I’m getting around to some overdue digital house cleaning. I’ve been away since, uh, November. Oops. So, to sum up: I won NaNoWriMo ahead of time, made it over 50k, and … Continue reading →

JH – 70k and counting

Posted on November 24, 2010 by

I’ve gotten into something of a slump. I hit 50k for NaNoWriMo on the 19th; this was the first time I finished before the final day and I did it by a wide margin. But now I’m having trouble keeping … Continue reading →

50k and JH in haiku

Posted on November 15, 2010 by

Yep, JH is now over 50k, halfway through my projected length. That is a little over where I would like it to be, only because the next scene is my midpoint, so I’m running a bit long. That’s okay. I … Continue reading →

JH @ 26k words and a light in the sky

Posted on November 6, 2010 by

Yep, JH is already up to 26,134 words–keeping in mind that this is not my NaNo word count (see graphic at right; support your local NaNo Rebel!), but the cumulative word count for the novel. I’ve been plotting in little … Continue reading →

JH-8232 words, and November approaches

Posted on October 8, 2010 by

That word count would be a lot more satisfying if it hadn’t taken me since last Friday to get that far. I’ve switched myself to a schedule of five days a week writing, two days off, because I ultimately feel … Continue reading →

Crunch Time, Pt. 3/3

Posted on November 30, 2009 by

I just have one day’s worth of words left to write. Just another 1600. The next time I check in, it will be as a NaNoWriMo 2009 winner, complete with attractive winner’s badges and ruined wrists.

Crunch Time, Pt. 2/3

Posted on November 29, 2009 by

Why is it, at the times in my life when I most need a computer, mine fails? Junior year in high school: my term paper is due in two days and my disc drive burns out, thereby preventing me from … Continue reading →

Crunch Time, Pt. 1/3

Posted on November 28, 2009 by

I went to the public library for a while today. Nothing gets me writing like going to the library. It’s not being surrounded by books, nice though that is. It’s not the refreshing change in location. It’s not the peace … Continue reading →

Holidays strike again

Posted on November 28, 2009 by

It was not my intention to stay out past midnight. But my sister and brother-in-law are in town and we hardly ever get to see them. So we went out to dinner and lingered until quite late. So I’m checking … Continue reading →
