20,500 as of this afternoon - it's been as solid a day of writing as it gets for me, as I have the concentration skills of a grasshopper on something the guy swore was speed. My plans for the weekend have fallen through, so it looks like I'll be able to get a lot more done then than I anticipated.
The problem I'm encountering, since I very seldom write at length and haven't written fiction in years, is that while the plot I have in my head is pretty well fleshed out from start to end, the mechanics of physically getting characters from scene to scene are much more headache-y than I'd lazily anticipated. Since I'm not writing the kind of sky-fi story that has nifty teleport booths and starships, the temptation to eat up the word count with descriptions of arduous vehicular transportation is all too present.
In fact, the best decision I made before starting this thing was to delete 4chan off my bookmarks, since it's probably sucked away more time and motivation than anything I've found on the internets or off them. Just say no, robots. |
