I’m going to try to post daily about my progress to keep myself honest and you all updated on how it’s going.
Today’s word count: 1,678

Total word count: 7,049
Maybe every other day is a more realistic cadence for me to be posting about this. I seem to keep forgetting on odd-numbered days.
Yesterday went well. I had a lot of downtime between appointments on Sunday so I wrote in three chunks and it helped me go forward. Today was a lot harder. I had to go hole up at a coffee shop after work before I met a friend for dinner and then again after I got home, finishing up just now with some sore shoulders from sitting all day.
I plan to get some writing done tomorrow morning and maybe go to my first write-in in the evening. I usually get a lot done at those and it would be good to have another 2k+ day.
The plot is moving well. I think I’m a little behind where I thought I’d be, but I think there are some other parts that are going to move faster than I anticipated so I’m running with it. Once I hit 50k, I can slow down, but I don’t want to stop until the story is done. It’s better to be over than under, right?
Until next time, write on.

Keep it up! I only managed just over 1000 words yesterday, so I need some serious chunks this week to make up for it! I think I will ample time today, so *fingers crossed*

Good luck! I’m hoping to power ahead as well. I think I can make this write in. Happy writing!
