Well, this whole month felt kinda off. Saw this thread bumped and went, "Oh, poo poo." Then I checked my word count.



Using the selection count, since there's some prev. draft text copy pasted in for reference, I grew the manuscript by 12,574 words. So, I think I'm good on my goal. Going to :toxx: another 8k for May.

Did this in addition to my 8600 word story:



March goal = smashed.

Gonna take a day to think about April goals since I have not been in a good brain space lately and I don’t want to shackle myself to a goal that’s gonna make me feel worse.

Brain got worse and pretty much everything on my to-do list crashed and burned but the book is progressing nicely.

Still using selection wordcount since I still haven't hit the chapter with the copy/pasted reference material. Draft has grown 8,742 words since last month.

Needed to afford myself some flexibility on this one. Got a new apartment and had to spend the second half of the month moving in, piece by piece, alongside a bunch of other work-related nonsense.

Okay, I'm done for June. It was a very good week and a half but I don't think I'll be able to do much in July. I will try to post my results now:

1) 5k novel words: I have 8,517 but it is not posting. I'll try some more in a sec.

2) 1k nonfiction words: I have 2,817 nonfiction words, which is also not posting but I'll try some more in a sec.

3) 4 submissions. I've submitted stories to Cheap Pop, Daily Science Fiction, Pithead Chapel and MoonPark Review.

Current word count is 56,693 and absolutely give me the stone cold stunner if I don’t deliver on my 15k. I gotta put in the time.

I somehow have managed to force myself to keep getting up and writing at 6 am despite being on vacation. Not getting as much done as I would have at home, but still hitting my Minimum-Acceptable wordcount goal for every day. So, yay for that, I guess.

Anyway, on to business.



I still have some copy-pasted text in the full manuscript, although the number of total words should have gone up by the same amount either way. Still, I'm including the selection word-count so I can be more accurate next month since I didn't bother at the end of June.

Total words: 7,626

:toxx: for August: another 5K

I did three thunderdomes this month (I can track down links if i absolutely have to), which technically puts me at my goal, but more excitingly, I started a project that's going to consist of a bunch of interconnected vignettes surrounding an inexplicable phenomenon in an ordinary town.

This will be a "living" document that I update with my monthly progress. For future reference, at the time of posting, this doc is 3885 words long.

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

And finally, I decided to take a crack at writing a short erotica this month! You'll have to take my word for it that there are words here, as well as a beginning, middle, and erm ending. It was an interesting challenge to be sure.



:toxx: that in August I will add at least 5K to the project. Additionally, I will write at least two flash fiction stories.
