I've given myself a goal this time. I have to write at least 1,000 words a day and 5,000 on the weekends. According to my calculations, I'm approximately 52,000 words behind set schedule. No worries. I'll hit my final deadline... I always do. I can't do the NaNo monthly writing thing because let's face it, I have ADD and the minute something else grabs my attention (like life!) I'm gone. There are some fantastic writers out there who participate and I want to throw shit at my computer because I simply am not disciplined to do that. I actually start panicking when I read posts about how many words other writers have written for the day. So, right now, my time on Facebook is limited.
I'm actually kind of excited about this new book. I need to add adjectives and make myself fall in love with my characters because that's what I did with Jolt and I was able to get that across. Right now, the story is good, but I want great. So I'm going to push through it and then add key words. Oh, the sex scenes are great - those I went over and over with a fine tooth comb. I just need more description on physical appearance and more about feelings. My characters are just about ready to have a major blow out. Wish them (and me) luck!!
