I was flying yesterday, but started writing too late at night to get through much. I'm just meeting the minimum targets at the moment. Hopefully I'll get ahead over the weekend.

Also, on chapters, mine are between 2k and 4k usually.

Wrote 2500 words today- think that will do me for now but I've left it in a good place to pick up from. Just had one character have a future-reading with a clairvoyant named Esmeeralte. Was so much fun to write, it makes no sense whatsoever, but it's ok, cos it's a reading, it's not supposed to XD I feel accomplished XD

Maybe she writes on paper in school then types it up later? Just an idea, since it's what I sometimes do with coursework in supply lessons, instead of wasting the time. xP

I'm still ahead on word count but that doesn't make me feel much better about it.

I was just writing a post about how I had a mad dash of about 2,000 in an hour, which meant I hit 20k when my laptop shut down on me. I don't think I've ever been so relieved to see the autosaved file when I opened Word.
I was so scared I was going to lose it, it took me an hour of solid writing!

I'm about 4K behind. I am going to catch up this weekend and then get the enough done everyday afterwards. I kept randomly falling asleep this week. XP

My wrist was hurting when I first started writing today, now it's just numb :P

I've got another 2,500 if I want to catch up since I wrote nothing yesterday. And I've only written 1,500 thus far today.

And I wrote 500 words in 15 minutes, felt really proud of myself, worked out that was only fourty words a minute and felt sad because I can type twice that fast on a good day. And now I'm just procrastination to avoid more writing... >.>

I just got to 25,000!! I didn't think I'd make it this far.

On the down side, I was just reading through what I've written, and I have so so many adverbs, it's ridiculous.
