KEEP ON GOING!


I have reached the 60 000 line and I'm way past the line now. It feels great of course, since I still have 23 days left and less than 20 000 words. The only problem is that it starts feeling like "are we there yet?". It's so close, but oh boy it's still so far away.

I now know it's possible to write a book. It's possible for me to write a book. I can even do it in a short time range. I can put the pressure on myself without slacking or feeling like this is way too intense.

I have written every single day of this year. I have written more than 1000 words a day. No one is applauding, no one actually cares, but me. I have to start thinking about how I will celebrate the milestone of 80 000 words. I will actually celebrate it with EdMo, editing it for more than 50 hours in March. Well, that's not celebrating.

Tough luck. I've decided that this year it's going to be THE year of writing for me. I know that a lot of people dream about writing a book, but I'm soon there. OK, it's the first draft, far from ready, but still... You need to get the first draft written before the first draft can ever become a novel, a book. A book. Now I'm actually this close so I can start talking about my book :D
