Day 1 writing: 647 words -- more than I've written in weeks! November and December were really hard. Mr. Bookshop had a serious health emergency, which now involves rehabilitation and whatnot, but at least we're no longer in crisis mode. I should be able to write more than alibi sentences now that things have settled down a bit.
My writing goals are kind of vague at the moment. I wrote many, many alibi sentences in the past month and a half -- this group & challenge has a powerful hold on me, apparently! And since the alibi sentences I write tend to be unexpected, peculiar and pointed, I'm going to experiment with using some of them as prompts for longer stories.
Otherwise, I'll probably be working on things already in progress, finish some fannish and original stories, maybe work on the bookshop novel and definitely work on the nonfiction project, which is past due. Sigh.
I signed up again for getyourwordsout for a word count goal of 150K. Last year I signed up for their habit challenge, but I think WED is better for that. Doing both was kind of redundant. So I've gone back to the word count goal to spur me on to write more every day. 8-) Onward and upward!
