It’s that time of year again. The declared goal is 50,000 words over the month or 1,500/day but as you might be able to recognize, that doesn’t get you to 50,000. It’s actually 1666.667, so call it 1700 or so and be done with it.
I was pondering what I would write when I sat down to it, and two nights ago I was awakened at 2:15 with a complete story line, unable to return to blissful sleep. I had to get up, go to my kitchen table, jot down the whole thing across 4 pages of journal, and only then could I go back to sleep.
Between my weekly drawing class, camera-building and other stuff, Thanksgiving and the usual household activities, who knows if I’ll get there this year?
