20K--FAIL!

Okay, so I didn't reach my 20,000 word mark, but I did write almost 6,000 words in the past 24 hours. My friend A and I have now given ourselves a deadline of 25,000 by Sunday. This will be much easier to accomplish over the weekend, especially now that we're on a speed writing roll.

We'll also be doing a virtual write-in via g-chat (or YIM) tomorrow at around 1:00 p.m. CST should anyone want to join us (*cough* Karin, JinJa *cough*). There will be 15 minute word war sprints as well as prompts as needed.

I probably could do another 2K words tonight, but I'm at a really good stopping point. I'm about to introduce a new character as well as a major turning point for the plot, so I'd rather be fresh and alert rather than running on fumes fueled by Diet Coke and jalapeno cheddar popcorn.

So, the moral of this blog is that I'm a loser, but only a partial loser. I made it 3/5 of the way to my goal, which isn't too shabby given my usual failure rate!
