"When you open your mind and hands and heart to the knowing of a thing, there is no room in you for fear"

--Patricia McKillip, The Riddle-Master of Hed


I am going to start filtering some of my more private musings. Since blogger does not have a tool for that, you will need to visit my Live Journal and ask to be friended there. I will continue to post Daily Gratitude and other subjects here.

There is also a FAQ for my Journal at the same link.


NaNo progress report 11-10
Saturday, November 11, 2006 @ 16:04

Goals from Day 9:
  • Outline the character information I have so far -- MET
  • Word count goal is 2500 -- NOT MET -- My verified word count for yesterday is 200.
  • Extra Credit -- 1000 extra words for a total of 3500 -- NOT MET -- see above
  • Verified Word Count to date -- 10301
  • Comments: the character spreadsheet took longer than I thought. Seven core characters withe secondaries surrounding them adds up pretty fast. I was in avoidance mode on actual writing, but I found myself unable to enjoy my usual diversions of TV, games, and forum-surfing. I thought I could make it to bed without writing one word, but I felt compelled to get a notebook and write at least a few paragraphs long-hand, hence the 200 words. I'm not sure if the avoidance was a result of the writing I had to do at work (first time I've composed something from scratch, rather than editing or reworking someone else's text) or the fact that the SWAE is now generating questions and I am expected to have answers. Maybe it was a combination of both in the same short period of time.
Goals for Day 10:
  • Finish the chapter from last night
  • Write two more chapters
  • Word count goal is 2500
  • EC goal is 1000 extra words for a total of 3500.
