La Vie Boheme

Holy cow!

Well, I successfully managed to dodge the Sims this afternoon, resulting in another 1600 words this afternoon. Yes, you read that right. I managed almost 3400 words today without even breaking a sweat. I keep rechecking my word count because that can't be right. It was too easy. The secret, of course, is that I got to another section of the story that I was really eager to write, so I blasted through it. I think it came out well, but I think it's going to mean getting rid of the prelude I originally tacked on at the beginning. Later. I'll get rid of it later.

I am so psyched. I've gone from being three days behind my 1500 words a day schedule to just being two days behind. Piece of cake. I can catch up. However, taking another look at my outline to see how many chapters I've projected are left, and going by the lengths of my chapters so far, this is going to be 90,000-100,000 words. I never would've believed that I'd write something so long! You know what that means? It means I'm right about at the halfway point. Heaven help me. Half done. Woot!
