Throwing Little Thought Pebbles at Your Windshield Since 1996
Is everyone having a good day? TGIF and stuff. I hit the 2000 word mark that I was supposed to finish on the 1st, meaning that now I only have the 2000 to write for today. That’s about 5-6 pages of stuff, double-sided.
I don’t yet know if the story is any good, but at least it’s interesting to write. That’s all I can tell you for now.
p.s. I promised my co-worker I wouldn’t tell everyone that we got stopped for speeding on the way to get lunch. So shhhh.
Welcome Gwen! 8.5 pounds and 21 inches! Now your parents can see who’s really in charge! Hugs to the new parents and grandparents on their first child/grandchild! Try not to spoil her too much, okay guys? Remember, she can’t play with that Rokenbok set you want until she’s five.
Friday Morning. It’s Shrek day! My mom is actually going to pick up a copy for us, because it’s easier for her to run out in the middle of the day, seeing as she and my dad are retired. I tried to use the movie as a Mookie bribe to get him to poop in the potty, but he’s just really much smarter than I am.
My novel is only 1200 words. I wanted to do 2000 yesterday. I guess that means I have to to 2800 today, huh? I’d better write at least five or ten of them every time I have a minute today.
Almost 1000 words done. I’m aiming for 2000 a day. Sure it’s easy on the first day. Wait till I have to remember all the characters and what they’ve done etc.
But I know the secret. If I start going horribly astray, I’ll just say that everything to that point was a horrible dream, and go off in a different direction. Hey, it’s not against the rules.
So I’m working on this late from work, because this way I’m not interrupted by Mr. Dump and Mookie and whatever video is in heavy rotation this week. But I have to go home and eat now. I think we’re having the California Pizza Kitchen Pizzas made famous on the home page.
