Today’s progress:

Project: White Raven draft two

New words: 3,949

Total words: 101,342

Goal: 100k

Writing:

Making up for a lost day and a useless day, it seems.

I got a whole chapter sorted out today.  While it’s going to need some work still, I’m pretty happy with it overall.  And I’m looking at maybe one or two more chapters to go until the end of this draft, putting me well within my goal time (hopefully) of getting this done within the next few weeks.

I wish I could tell when I sat down to write what kind of a writing day it would be.  Today I found myself putting off actually getting the butt in the chair, but once I was here, everything just flowed.  Other days I start off enthusiastic, and then nothing happens.  I hate the unpredictability of it all.

Real life:

More laundry, just for something different   Washing a tonne of baby stuff.

Not much else productive today, thanks to feeling generally pretty tired on a physical level.  Will go for a short and very slow walk soon and then settle down to some reading, I think.

Word count posts = useful?

Just a quick question to those who read this blog.

Do you find the daily posts of metrics useful and/or interesting?

I like being accountable for my work, but I often wonder if I’m just boring everyone to death with metrics posts.
