Novel Update (writing day 3)

I had high hopes of 6K or 7K today. Plenty of time, lots of thoughts as I’ve had all week to build up a whole session’s worth of writing.

Unfortunately, somwhere along the way I ingested some sort of powerful, um, food poison or something. So the session only lasted two hours or so. But productive ones.

Anyway, the novel is still stuck in Pittsburgh. But I did a lot to get things on the road and I think my MC might get this novel on the road. He leaves “on Saturday” and I know that the novel is on either Wednesday or Thursday.

  1. I was worried all night about that food poisoning, but it didn’t sound as if you were hospitalized.

    Still, it’s nothing to ignore, not with all these diseases going around. I sure hope you’re fine, and that this won’t cause any troubles with your noveling or your candyblog.

    Gravatar I don’t think you can expect that I would post to my blog if I were in the hospital. It was a stomach bug, plain and simple. Bad enough to keep me out of public places, but not so bad that I couldn’t post about it

During November it's all about me writing a novel. Sometimes it's about whalewatching. You know, and then there's other stuff.
