Ah yes...the grand old hump day, middle of the week and start f the longest three days in human history. Why is it what Wednesday to Friday takes a godawful amount of time? It draaaags and draaaags. Well, I feel like a zombie today since I was up way past my (recently) normal bedtime struggling to hit that elusive 90,000 word mark. I got to 89,650 before I said "bed. need. now." So I was pretty satisfied with my progress yesterday. 8,000 words in all. Pretty good, I feel like I'm on a roll.
I can't wait, if I keep this up I can finish by Friday or Saturday. The first draft anyway. I only have a few more chapters left to write which is extremely exciting. I think as writers our characters can sometimes dictate our flow. But in no way shape or form do they dictate the way the story is going. So I may, from time to time say "Petra's being an a-hole today" or "These demons are so stubborn"but that's only because I'm having a hard time writing them that day. I like to personify them. I'm not certifiable...well not in that sense.
Anycase, yesterday was a good day for the muse. I hope that today will be much the same as 'm getting into a rather exciting chapter and have only exciting ones left. I'm kind of giddy that I get to write some pretty awesome stuf today and if you kiddies are lucky...there may beith a small lil' snippet. Just to give you an idea of my style and sliiiight plot. Again, no plagiaristic klepto thieves need apply. I do have what I've written thus far registered, so. That should hopefully deter any would be manu-thieves. I just don't want to give too much away before the book is finished and copyrighted all proper like.
Yes. I am the elusive and reclusive writer that will make you all wait. I'm just mean like that! haha. I think a little suspense is good for the soul. Its raining. Blech. Oh and funny thought from last night... "oh god this is gonna get me excommunicated." Which is bad since I'm officially Roman Catholic. Hmmm. Thank goodnes I'm not all staunch with it, or this might bother me more.
More later kiddies. Have a Chuck Norris-ified day.
