1000 more this morning, and found a fun foil for my protagonist. Murder scene, gruesome, lots of googling to find out the nuances of blood. 46300 total

After a weekend away (I got a bit of writing done), back at it this morning, with 1500 down and 35000 total. Have to re-outline though, as I'm now completely off base with what I'd intended!

2500 more words today (30500 total). Hard at first but I got into the groove eventually! Plus, edited two chapters of Penumbra. Am on a mini vacation over the next few days so may not be doing quite as much...

2500 words this morning, 26,200 total. I'm about 25% of the way through my plot, but about 33% of the way through my intended word count. Yikes. Someone sharpen the scissors!

1500 this morning, up to 23,700 words now and things are moving. Saw someone post that plotting a murder mystery is like a masterclass in brain activity, and it truly is. I have so many notes like, "put clue here" or "need to answer this mystery."

I wrote an additional 2,000 words this morning. Unfortunately, I also realized I had been heading in the wrong direction, so the last 2,000 words had to be cut (to be saved for later). So, back to 22,000 but headed in the right direction now!

1000 words today, like pulling teeth. Don't know why - I knew where point A and point B were, but getting our protagonist there took a Herculean effort. Still, we got there. And now I passed the 20,000 word mark! Like a car, it needs a tune up.

Another 1500 words this morning; 17,000 words total now. Extra exciting news, though, is that I have no work after 2pm so I'll hopefully be able to get back to it...if I can

1500 words this morning; 15000 words total. Had one of those strange mornings where nothing seemed to come to me but then somehow I hit my count and kept going. Have an open day, so I'm gonna edit and write some more. :)

1700 words, 13,300 total, on a roll this morning. Have to stop to walk the dog and say hi to the family but I think I'll try to get back to this - things finally feel like they're moving! #writingupdate #keepmeaccountable #newnovel

Another 1500 words this morning and I feel like I could keep going! But I know that it's good to pause, let things settle. I'm at 11,600 now, but I can feel everything dragging. I need to get them to the hotel asap!

#WritingUpdate Got slightly more than 1000 words done today -- finished a section and am up to 10K in my novel. It's much too long (they haven't even made it to the hotel yet, which is where all the action is) but better to have it all down now and cut later

After a day of not feeling well yesterday, I am back on the writing train this morning. My #writingupdate is another 1000 words, with a total of 8880 at the moment, and a decent if desperately-in-need-of-rewrite opening to chapter 2 in the bag. #keepmeaccountable #newnovel

#writingupdate #keepmeaccountable #writinggoals today I hit 1000 words, and finished a draft of Chapter 1, at 7600 words total. It's too long for the first chapter, so I suspect in the edit I'll cut that down significantly. But, onwards we plow! Tomorrow, the start of Chapter 2 ...

#writingupdate #keepmeaccountable #writinggoals today I hit 1500 words, but really only like 4 of them are any good. But, I'm up to a total of 6600 and almost done with chapter 1.

Got up early to do 1000 words this morning//4,000 total. Lots of stuff happening today so I don't know if I'll be able to do more, but happy to hit my goal today and I love it when a character does something you just don't expect at all.
