As soon as midnight hit on the 31st I started writing. Sadly my husband kept distracting me and I only managed 1,140 words before I had to go to bed. Can't wait to get started again in the morning. I've had the idea for this novel for years and have never had the will power to get it moving. Really excited about finally getting my idea down in the computer.
Compared to my 300 last night, 1100 isn't bad at all. I know the feeling, I've been sitting on a story for a few months and now have the perfect excuse to write it. I almost started early but refrained, I came up with several good ideas this week and was really anxious to put em in play.
I didn't get started until this afternoon. I hit a wall and thought I'd leave it for a bit. Couldn't stop thinking about it.
I finally decided that I just didn't like what I wrote. I scrapped it all and started over. Got 1857 words in. I'm happy.
Anyone for meeting at Starbucks this week or maybe next Sunday?
I loaded up on snacks and I have been writing so much lately that my fingers are sore lol. Everyone is doing so well, It's a challenge but I know you guys are going to make it through! It's also nice to see local people getting into it because I don't know anyone who lives near me that is taking the challenge.
Good luck everyone! Add me as a buddy if you want, I can always use a good writing buddy. =D

I've bought the coffee, set aside the writing space, and I'm ready to go! Hope to see you around!

Sounds good! I've been buying hot cocoa mix and getting character profiles and
a loose plot down. I'm chomping at the bit!
Would you be open to meeting at Starbucks for some writing sessions?

I'd be up for a meet, during the week is no good for me right now, but weekends are open.

I could probably do Sunday if it was in the afternoon, I have something I do every Sunday evening but early afternoon I might be able to make.

My schedule is wide open. What time Sunday would be good for you?
Is Starbuck's okay or would you rather meet somewhere else?
