Wrote Too Much
Wrote Too Much
Lost track of time while working on the novel and didn’t leave myself time to do a topic of the night. Ahh, well… maybe tomorrow.

The Day
Tuesday, some errands, almost finished the template on my short story collections.
Store at 6:30 and home by 7 to take a nap, then cook dinner.
Then I worked until 11 p.m. doing online workshop assignments.
Then I moved over to the writing compute and managed 1,300 words before heading to watch television around 12:30 a.m. I had a break in the middle of that somewhere to play with a cat.
Then after watching too much television, I made it back to my writing computer around 2 a.m. I did 1,100 words by 3 a.m.
Took a short break, did 1,300 words again by 4 a.m. As I said this novel is just humming along. And I still have no idea how it will end or where it is even going.
Short break, did 1,100 words by 4:45 a.m. when I realized what time it was and that I need to get up for meetings tomorrow.
So 4,800 words on a night I did workshop assignments. That I will take.
