Today was a good day writing wise. In a couple novels, I’ve actually skipped writing whole chapters, which isn’t too unusual for me. What is unusual is that I’ve skipped over so many chapters this early in the month. Sometimes there are times when there are scenes (or even whole chapters) that I can’t write for whatever reason. Sometimes it’s a scene that I know I need to write, but I’m bored with it. Sometimes there’s a scene I know I need to write, but I’m absolutely clueless as to what the scene is. I make a note of it- usually along the lines of “insert such and such a thing here.” I usually don’t go back and write it, but this year, I probably will, because there are quite a few important chapters. Also on the plus side is the fact that there are things I know I need to write if I’m at crossroads with any of my novels.
Secret Service: 8500; I didn’t add the thousand words yesterday like I had hoped, but I’m doing pretty well with this one so far, so I’m not too worried if I get a day behind.
Harry Potter and the Giant Prehistoric Chicken: 5473; I managed to get (mostly) caught up, and if I can keep the ideas flowing, then I should be able to catch up with no problem. Skipping ahead so much is still kind of weird, but in this case, it’s really working out.
2006 Sequel: 9005; I’m hoping to add a thousand words tonight, but other than that, there’s nothing to add.
Total Wordcount: 23020
