SC: 5,200 words.
Still working everyday, still walking everyday. :) I'm starting to lose my desire though, the 'getting started novel high' has worn off. I'm still trying to keep myself in the chair for an hour a day though. I've got to find some other time though to get a short story sent off though. I don't want to not write on the novel because I might not get back to it.
My progress on the novel slowed down considerably yesterday and today. The day before yesterday something was nagging me. Then I happened to be reading a couple of things about dreams and it occured to me that I needed a dream sequence. It allowed me to put in a bit of forshadowing as well as some other information in the dream. It was awkward for me to write and took some time. Now the scene I'm currently working on will take a bit of thought as well. They are meeting up with some other characters, one of which I haven't given much thought to yet. I hadn't planned on this character being a major part in it, but it may turn out that he will be involved in the main characters lives. We'll see.
Xander's pictures are fully up at our family website. You can check them out here.
Also, I'm considering another part-time job. This is one of those internet jobs that you can do at home in your own spare time. I'd basically working off commission of advertising (yes, I'd make money off those annoying pop-ups, isn't that terrible!?). BUT part of the job involves writing non-fiction articles for the site. An actual writing job! I'd get paid for writing!! I haven't gotten it yet. I have to send a resume and an article. I'll let you know how it goes.
