50K!

I did it. I managed to write 50,000 words towards a novel for the first time since 2007. Yes, it’s mostly horrible. Yes, there are parts that make no sense, but yes, I have words that I can hand to Editor Jackson to do something with them.

Best of all, I managed to institute a habit of writing every day. I managed to convince myself that I still have ideas, and I still can write. I managed to prove that I don’t need to wait for motivation. I just need to sit down and write. I know this would have been a lot tougher if not for Save the Cat! Writes a Novel and Story Engineering. Those two books helped a lot with the preparation and made the going easier for the most part.

Today, I celebrate. Tomorrow, I start anew.
