I've finished chapter 1! Words are coming slowly, but now that I have the time to just focus on that, I'm hoping to have them pick up.
I've been asked by a couple of people now what advice I have for writing. Actually, the best advice I've heard so far came from Andi in chat the other day. She said simply, "BICFOK."
Butt in Chair, Fingers on Keyboard.
That's really the best advice. Don't talk about writing. Just write. Just do it, as the Nike commercials say.
Will it all be wonderful? No, of course not. But the only way to get better is to practice, and that involves the principle above.
Speaking of practice - went to fencing practice today. Ow, ow, ow. I am SO out of shape! But I went, dammit! And I'm planning on doing more now.
Gotta get butt out of chair on occasion and make sure my body is as healthy as my mind.
4.2K down - 45.8k left to go before November 30th.
No problems. :D
