I only made it about an hour and 500+ words. Getting the first paragraph is always my most difficult part, however, so at least I got that done. Now I am thinking of a flash-back from 1500 to 1066. That is where the story seems to be taking me. We'll see what happens

I started last night around one and got to about 1100, but when I was re-reading it this morning the last line was from V for Vendetta and didn't make any sense at all. I'm up to 1694, hope to get more today. Good luck everyone!!

I'm starting now. And by "starting now", I mean starting everything, as in getting out of bed due to my epic Halloween bender last night. But let the writing begin!

I've only written about 10 words today--been researching issues in my time period such as why did people move. My daughter says to stop researching and just write. I've also been assembling the genealogy of my family--the real people interspersed with ones I am making up where there are gaps in the line. I realized I would be perpetually confused if I didn't take the time to write the characters own, especially as I am trying to write an epic. It would have helped if I had heard of this thing more than a week ago,and done my character list in advance!

Even after getting barely any sleep thanks to Halloween, I'm still up and writing in the middle of the night. This is going to be a good month.
