Writing Week in Review 10/12--10/17 2015

Writing Week in Review:


This week started off rough. On Monday, the words just didn't want to emerge. Writing was brutal; the mental equivalent of scratching fingernails on a chalkboard, with BOTH hands. I barely got 4 pages in eight hours of writing ("trying" to write).

Tuesday and Wednesday moved along better with 8 pages each day. Good but not what I was hoping to achieve.

Thursday, mental gears rolled along much better. 11 pages.

Friday was glorious. I wish every day came this easily. For some reason I was in that writing zone. I was inside the novel and trying to keep up with everything that was going on. 20.8 pages!!!

I mentioned some days back that I "hoped" to be finished yesterday with Lady Squire. VERY close now. In the home stretch! Here's where it stands: On Chapter 79. By the standard 250 words per page, it is 709 pages long. You heard it, too? Trees in the forests are groaning! Good thing Kindle sales are much higher than PB.

Thanks, guys, for your patience! I plan to write more today (7 pages in 4 hours) and back into the grind on Monday. I will keep you posted.
