That makes me feel better! ;-) I can now let go and not do any today, so thank you! I am procrastinating by listening to Robbie Williams on Radio 1 from yesterday! I'll have to get a bit of music into my novel soon. Might see how many lyrics I can get in there - ooh, that would be fun. Hmm....I feel this may be another distraction! Oh well! x

Lol - Sandra, I know exactly how you feel. I keep reminding myself that my editor has the month of November off! And that no one is perfect instantly and writing a novel is a long process. I am seeing this month as a great bit of practice, to learn how to write a novel, to learn my strengths (dialogue...lots and lots and lots and lots and lots of dialogue!) and my weaknesses (anything other than dialogue! Lol) I am a little bit behind now, I'm on about 17000 words...hoping to get some time over the weekend to catch up with myself! xx

Wow you all are doing so well. congratulations, I'm procastinating for a few days now and I just don't feel like writing I know that I will probably not use my story it's sucks everywhere lol and just don't feel motivated to continue. I will try write sth tonight anything even if it has nothing to do with my story just for the sack of the word count lol

Yay to everyone here for doing their best!!! Donna are you at 11,000? Awesome! And Tamara-Hello!!!! You go girl!

I am doing 2 hours in the mornings and an hour or so at night. Many of my "words" are ideas I have for the plot down the road. The story is going along but there are mini-stories that I add here and there, which "should" fit into the plot at some point. I will worry about how to bring them together late. ;)

I wrote a lot this weekend, got a huge jump on Friday when my DH took our son out for the day on my hubby's birthday. My throat was too sore and I was zonked, so stayed home and wrote like crazy. But now I am slowing down, of course, I'm actually a little stuck now. ;(

Wow Clarissa 14000 words! Woohoo! Considering your distractions in the shape of illness and birthdays, that's AWESOME! The wheels are slightly falling off my writing wagon! Lol. got a really busy week and don't know when I'm going to get a chance to write :-( But we shall see. x

Oh and I bought a desk this weekend at IKEA, though it is still in the box. I am really excited to have a focused place to sit and write!!!
