Granted, my December ended up packed, so a fair bit of the home stretch ended up being "Letter of the law" gibberish, but the point (in my mind) was to write something to get in the habit and just practice, practice, practice, so I'm fine with it.

Aaaand by "tomorrow," I apparently mean, "a few days later."



6,129 words, all on The Great Novel Rewrite (That Is Consuming All).

:toxx: for 5K, also all on the novel, unless I finish the drat thing, although that's unlikely to happen in 5k words.

My novel doc was at 28660 on jan 1, now it is 31103

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1ZbfdUh_CdrrDcyrSyV6Fl_4dgq5pGWrpBvpm8uS1_4g/edit?usp=sharing

i did another side thing also:



i'm a writer not a mather but i think that adds up to more than 5000 words

:toxx: that either I will write three chapters OR two chapters and 2500 words on another project of my choice.

Word count isn't as helpful right now because i tend to hit my goal and then stop mid-scene, which means i lose the flow. Chapters in my doc are shown in the outline sidebar, so there should be at least two more of those by feb 29.

The link above is updated with the new chapters. I ended on the one with the working title "Amos's failed adventure" last month, and this month added 3 full chapters and one tiny interlude, totaling in about 8100 words for the month.

Here is a screenshot of my document outline as of the end of last month, to prove i did the work

For March I :toxx: for the same thing: write three chapters or two chapters and 2500 words on another project of my choice.

I knew I was going to forget about this thread eventually.

I don't have any pictures, or even a real strong guess, of where exactly my word count was at the end of January.

As of right now I'm at 70,611.



That's 6,698 more than where I was at the start of Jan. I couldn't say how much of those were written in January, though.

Well i got thrown completely off track for the month. I am still working on the chapter i left off on. also I'm not paying for another 30 dollars in forums stuff right now so RIP.

I have opened my doc nearly every day this month but I can only get out about 100 words per hour of writing, on top of suddenly having to share my space 24 hours a day with no actual time alone. If I'm around for April, I will toxx for a smaller goal.

Woops I forgot to share my poo poo. I got hung up on what was supposed to be a lighthearted chapter, but current events made it real hard to maintain the mood I started the chapter in.

here is where I left off:



My LW doc is now updated with three additional chapters and a brief interlude.

Welp, got my 10k done. (split across 7 documents because I was working on several ideas and also I'm a disorganized, sue me) Bad news is it's entirely poo poo I don't want to inflict on other humans. Half of it's not even actual story; it's the written equivalent of stalling, with some word salad thrown in.
I blame COVID and anxiety for giving me writer's block.

But! If this is satisfactory I would like to go again for April, this time for 2k BUT I have to post it for others to read. That way I have to put all my effort into making one story that I'm satisfied with.
