A third.
Hi guys,
It's been half a month since I last posted, and things are busy. And only getting busier.
But, I had my last exam on Wednesday, and got some results for essays and my major project.
I can't write essays. This doesn't surprise me, but I also know it's because I lack passion for them that I can't write them.
I can write fiction though. I got a Distintion for my Major Project. You remember the one I mentioned ages ago, that's a kind of prequel to my WiP? Maybe not. But I got a Distinction! It makes me feel good.
My daily word goal - it's increased from 300 words a day to 1000, because every time I sat down to write, that's about what came out. Of course, some days I write less, but it's not too much of an effort to make up the lack again.
And because of this, I'm a third of the way through the first draft! I'm very excited about where the plot is taking me, and when I stopped today, I left it at a place where the reader gets the first hint of a major revelation.
I can't wait to sit down to my writing tomorrow.
Another thing about being busy, is that as well as not updating here, I haven't been around to any of my favourite blogs. I miss you guys! But, I've got the whole month of January off, so there'll be lots of writing, posting here, and reading of other blogs.
I'll be back soon with a Christmas post. Until then, take care guys.
