I wrote about 1,000 words last night for chapter 6. I think that means I wrote 5,000 words Sunday. That was a good writing day. I was helped by having a couple of hours in the afternoon in addition to time at night.

Dang, Gud. It can take me an hour to squeeze out 100 words for a drabble. I am astounded at your word count.

That part had a lot of action. In those cases I can sometimes go almost as fast as I can type.

I have a heist coming up which will really slow me down. I'll need to do a lot of planning and drawing of floor plans.

Because books.

I think that means I wrote 5,000 words Sunday.

I need to write 6,000 words by THURSDAY, and I'm panicking. Damn.

“Not dead yet!”

Deep breaths, babe.

Start with 1500.

Much of it will be ... fun stuff to write, though, so.

And I'm sure you know what I mean by that. Ahem.

“Not dead yet!”

Ahem indeed, love.

So get to it.

(And what's it for?)

I'm just doing a first draft so the speed is deceptive. I'm trying not to pester my wife too much to read chapter 5 now that I'm done with it.

I need to write 6,000 words by THURSDAY, and I'm panicking. Damn.

I'm glad that it is fun stuff to write though. I wish you much inspiration.
