Project Hero: 24 242 words
It is the weirdest thing, but yesterday, Monday, none of us felt like writing. Sin didn't write because she was worn out from her writing the day before (she managed to push out 1700 words despite being sick as a dog, which, come on, r-e-s-p-e-c-t), and Freo and I didn't write because... we didn't write. I had no reason, but I was just unmotivated. Nothing like last week when, when I sat down to finally write, I was able to punch out a few thousand words; when I sat down to write yesterday it was a struggle to get to 800. It took me almost all day to get that, and even then, I didn't write it for Threesome, I wrote it for Hero.
I blamed it on writing a difficult character - she is just so hard to capture on paper; I swear, the others waltzed out on the page, but not her - but really, I just didn't want to write yesterday. The Week Two Blues: they have hit me and hit me hard. I panicked today when I looked at our goal for Threesome and realised we were about four thousand words behind despite hitting 30k. Thankfully Freo and I both sat down and wrote out our next respective scenes (in grey text to show they don't fit the narrative yet) while we wait for Sin to recover a bit more, so we're only just below our goal now and technically Freo's Day 10 hasn't started yet. We'll get there.
On a more positive note: can't believe we've hit 30k. *boogies on down*
Now I am going to go and take another whack at Hero. I am going to get you down on paper, Lauren, whether your character wants to be there or not, because, dammit, I want another hit of lovely lovely sugar. Cue the cracking of knuckles.
EDIT: Finished the next chapter of Hero! Another 1900 words to my tally, booyeah. Plus I finished on a palindrome that includes the meaning of life. Twice. I think this is a good sign for my exam tomorrow.
