The Journal, Saturday, March 3

Hey Folks,

It’s almost noon, and so far, surprisingly, I’ve had a pretty good writing day.

That’s the result of getting up very late (almost 6), some visiting, a couple of outside chores and a couple of good sessions of writing.

So that’s not too bad, considering.

Now off for lunch, then maybe more writing afterward. The novel’s really flowing, though at just over 24,000 words I still have no clue where it’s going. But the character are sure having a good time getting there. (grin)

If I happen to write anymore today, I’ll report the numbers tomorrow.

See you then.

See “Crime Writers’ Resource” at https://www.suecoletta.com/crime-writers-resource/. And don’t be short sighted. Even if you don’t write “crime,” you can use some of these in any genre.
