ROW80 Check In Jan. 16

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , on January 16, 2011| 18 Comments »

I’m not feeling very “wordy” today, so I’ll just be brief. I took off from writing on Thurs. (can’t even remember why, but there was something) and yesterday (because it was my birthday). But I’m still ahead on my cumultive word count by 708 words because I usually writing more than my goal of 500 per day. I don’t take any days off unless I’m ahead enough on my word count to make up for it.

I haven’t written anything today, but I had a brainstorm about a scene while I was getting ready for church this morning. So I expect to write more than 500 today.

Hope everyone else is doing well!

ROW80 Check In – Jan. 12

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , on January 13, 2011| 15 Comments »

I’m finally getting around to posting my check in after battling a migraine, then working on an editing job I have right now. So I haven’t had time to write my 500 words yet tonight. But I’m going to.

As of yesterday, though, I’m 1,685 words over my culmultive goal. Hey, I can take three days off! LOL. But, of course, I won’t. It’s nice to have that cushion, though, in case something goes wrong. And I probably won’t write anything Saturday because it’s my birthday. 🙂 So, yeah, I’m on track.

I hope everyone else is doing great!

ROW80 Check In – Jan. 9

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , on January 9, 2011| 18 Comments »

I’m still doing fine. My goal is 500 words per day, which for me isn’t necessarily that I have to write that many a day, but that I average that. I took a day off on Friday because I was 996 words ahead of goal, and I got in late that night. Then on Saturday I wrote 1187 words, so I’m back to 1183 words ahead of goal. I haven’t done my writing for today, but I see no problems with that. I think I know what’s going to happen next.

Oh how I wish I didn’t work a full time job!

ROW80 Check In – Jan. 5

Posted in Uncategorized, tagged , , , on January 5, 2011| 12 Comments »

I had two goals for ROW80. One of them was to get Haunted Lake edited. Well, I kind of cheated on that one because I had two whole days off from work, so I edited during that time, before ROW80. After finding a few typos, a couple of discrepancies, and one really obvious contradiction (my beta readers didn’t even catch it, lol), I think I have it finished. I’m one of those writers that edits chapter by chapter as I write so that I don’t have as much to edit later. So that goal is accomplished…even if I cheated by starting early. But I saw no reason to waste those two days. And, unlike NaNo, you don’t get slapped on the hand for this.

Also, I’m ahead on word count by a little over 500. My goal was 500 words per day, and I wrote 991 the first day. On the second day, I struggled to get word count in (but I did it) because I’m not loving this story yet. But I felt the same way about Guardian Vampire and it ended up being the best thing I had written. So I’m not giving up on this baby.
