I met up with Michael last night per usual, and while we were catching up before writing, Michael mentioned that he was participating in…

… so I guess I’ll do the same.

Unfortunately, I’ve already failed, in that I didn’t post anything on October 1st.  So maybe one of these days, I’ll do two blog posts in a day.  I guess we’ll see.

Last night, I made another break through in my book.  I was really unhappy with a scene I’ve been working on, mostly because it felt like I didn’t know what I was doing.  I was going in one direction, and I didn’t like it.  I changed directions, and managed to add another 1300 words or so, and I’m really happy about it.

Tying word count in with the ultimate blog challenge, I think that I will probably keep my posts a little bit shorter this month.  Something I’ve noticed is that my posts tend to be near 1000 words each.  That strikes me as funny, because when I’m working on my book, 1000 words feels like an accomplishment, and I feel a little bit tired afterwords.  I can throw 1000 words into a blog post easily, though, and sometimes feel like I didn’t say enough.

So here goes… a post every day this month (2 on one of these days), and I’ll keep my posts a little bit shorter.  Let’s see what happens!
