Urk I have forgotten how to word.
Seriously!
I suppose I deserve it after writing next to nothing all year, and then trying to write a) an original story and b) something partly started, I’m picking it up in the middle for crying out loud! No runaway fun with the beginning.
Still this is painfully slow, like I’m shocked and appalled at how little I’ve done when I was hoping instead for shock and awe.
I was hoping to start the first day with a bang but this is more like a whimper, a little pathetic plea of suckage. Disgruntled! That’s the word, that’s what I am.
Hmm this is not the status post I wanted to write. I wanted buzzing excitement and success. Boo hiss. Soon! Only way is up right?
Right so all of this is true ^^ BUT…
I might have been a little bit hasty with the negativity.
While it’s true I didn’t get anywhere near what I wanted, I got the daily target and then a bit extra. I also finally finished the scene which had been laying unfinished for over a year, my speed increased as time went on, and something unexpected happened. I always love that! I plan quite thoroughly but sometimes things still surprise me.
I had a new character appear. All I know about him is that he looks like Ewan McGregor in Star Wars II or III and I think he’s going to tie in with a subplot in book four that has previously had ???? all over it and “the Captain returns” so yeah that’s cool.
Today: 2,791
Total: ^^
Anyway, I need to go to my club meeting. I think I’m going to have a comic published in the uni’s “comic book society” book, it’s exciting!
