Another 1200 words, another chapter down. I'm actually excited to write again. I forgot what this feels like.

Um...did I really just write 1128 words in 20 minutes?

Can you tell I'm in the action/climax of the story? I mean...DAMN. I've impressed myself there.

Well, I didn't make it to 25k, but I did make it to 20k. I'm calling that a win. 20k in 5 days...AND I might get more words in tonight after meal prep. MAYBE.

At 12.5k words today...and a very enthusiastic night of multiple romps in the sack on my character's part...I'm calling it a day. Tomorrow we get to scary.

Been feeling icky since yesterday. Nausea, mostly. So, there have been no words. That doesn't mean my muse has been silent, though. She worked out how the big event happens.

Chapter 7 in the bag, and I broke 10k. I'm enjoying where this is going, & the characters. More, I'm enjoying the act of writing again. It's a beautiful thing.

My #shortstory is officially & properly named, and it is Moonlit Secrets. I have also sketched out the first 4 books and given them titles as well!

Ok. Back from the gym. My arms & shoulders are dead...but I think I figured out my problem with the aforementioned chapter. Time to dive back in.

Brody, my single dad's son, is so stinking cute. I just want to hug him tight. :D

Hm. Intriguing. The muse just woke up a little and started tweaking plot line ideas for the next two #DarkSkyValley books. She's been pretty hush hush the past couple of months. Maybe we'll see #words again?

Apparently after 45 chapters of building tension, my muse is like LET'S GO. Just wrote over 1k words in 25 minutes. I guess I need to write more smexytime scenes.

I keep seeing writerly advice on TT, much being "plot ahead"...but here's the thing. My characters like to shock the sh*t out of me on the regular. I'd lose that fun.

WHAT?

I believe I *may* have figured out a way to keep Bridger in the story (remembering the title of the book sort of pushed the issue), AND still keep the new storyline direction the muse was taking me. Might be ready to start book 2 of #DarkSkyValley soon!!

Got so wrapped up in writing I lost track of time and missed phone calls and texts. It's a good day. Also, story is almost at 15k now.

No #writing today...but I did put together my new computer desk and bookcase, did some cleaning. Tomorrow I write & then go test drive a car.

I have the next 6 days off. Going to (maybe) chill tonight. I have a to-do list that's quite long...and it includes lots of words on the #WIP (& cleaning, I'm not a total schmuck)

Halfway to my daily goal to get 25k during my 6 days off. Let's do this. I'm pumped.

Serious question. Is nightcap still used or considered corny/outdated? I automatically used it, but I'm second guessing. (Character is a self-professed corny person, but still...)
