4000 Words
Jul. 7th, 2008 02:40 pmWell, things seem to be going fairly well so far. I've found that, as I mentioned before, it isn't too hard to keep going once I've sat down to write. I ground out about 3000 words yesterday (bringing my total to 4000), and thats despite the fact that I didn't start writing until 5:00 PM, and had breaks for dinner, cleanup, pacing, and making sure my grandma didn't die horribly when she tripped on her suitcase and fell, and started screaming (scary times, but all seems to be well, thankfully). I think the world has come together nicely; hopefully, though, my city of Cartholme won't be too confusing, with it's combination of steampunk-y elements from all across the 1800s jammed into one place.
Also---OMG GELATO! In an actual Italian presentation case, with bits of fruit on top of the tubs! In a coffeeshop with wi-fi access! Where I am right now!
Though after just a small one, I have to swear off ice cream, at least until I hit 10,000 words. Mmmm....gelato. I'll have to try the Blood Orange flavor next time.
Blessed be,
~Nathan
