3rd sweaty day

ok it the 3rd day of Alison Kent's seventy days of sweat! This challenge is just what i need to sit my butt down to write! Goodness know that what authors do day in and day out they sit at thier computer and write. And most days I never get around to writing. It like I'm scare or something. Scare i fail and i have yet to try so I have failed if i haven't tried. Now thanks to Seventy days of sweat I'm trying and I'm now farther in my book.
As I said in the earlier post my goal is 85000 words in 70 days. I figured out that about 1300 words a day. That number alittle over but still doable.
So on sunday I found out about the challenge from Marjorie M Liu's LiveJournal Blog. She didn't say much but I was then curious so I click the link to Alison's blog. Wow like I keep saying just what I needed so I signed up. It was late on sunday but I started writing. I wrote least then a page but it got me started! Yesterday (monday) I read the posts that Alison linked in her blog, realized that I don't have so much on my plate as some of the authors in this chanenge it was a wow moment. also on monday I wrote my words count for the day I still behind becouse of sunday but it's ok I'm writing!! that what matter! and i'm closer to finish my book then i was on sunday. That what I keep telling myself I'm closer. I'm closer! Great feeling! So I need to go write for today. Thank you for visiting my blog! ~A
