I mean, that’s actually unfair. I’m not finished by a fair margin… I was really hoping to get this novel done in August, but life, as it often does, had other plans.
Hmmm. Ugly sentence. But I’m gonna leave it! That’s my prerogative as a writer! To leave ugly sentences here such that there are none in my novels.
That’s the way it works, right? Cosmic balance and all that?
Anyway. Today I’m going to try and push through the speed bump I’ve hit for this chapter and just get more words on the page. I can fix most problems in editing, but only if I actually write the silly thing. So my goal today is get to the halfway point of my first draft (usually around 35-40k words), and worry about making it pretty later. For now, just words.
Hope everyone out there is staying safe and healthy!
