Hey Folks,
The Last Day of July! Woohoo! Today I’ll finish my 26th novel. With any luck, I’ll begin the 27th. Well, I might wait until August 1 just to be honest about it.
Today, and Writing
Headed out to the Hovel at around 10. Struggling a little as I head for the end game on this one. The characters tossed up one more twist. Very weird.
So I wrote awhile, then cycled back through almost the whole book to make sure everything fit. Then I wrote some more, cycled back some more, and wrote some more.
Well, I found the end, but I didn’t finish. Mea culpa. Guess I’m not as bulletproof as I thought. Tomorrow I will have missed one month in my goal to complete a novel every month. But I think I won’t mourn too long. (grin)
Back tomorrow.
Of Interest
Nothing today.
