Wow. I really opened the up that super soaker. It was like that one kid who did not have one grabbing for the hose and just going to town. I have written to over 35k words. In just over a week. Thats 14k or so. I wrote the first 21k in four plus months. I do not know if it was something in the water or what.
Well thats not true. My brother helped a lot. I sent him what I had to read. He loved it. His encouragement really pushed me to keep going. I guess I have built up momentum or something because of it since I have not stopped writing since.
I am hitting some issues now though. Down time in the story. I need to break up the action with plot and character development and it feels sluggish. I am working hard to make it feel real and unfortunately real gets boring. I guess a novel isn't like a movie though. You can have the slower times.
Need to get back to it. I really should. I have only written 120 words today. Granted, I did some editing and reshuffling of words but 120 feels really lacking. Good thing there are still ten hours in the day for me to get to it.
