Write-a-thon Update

Here’s my word count on my still-nameless novel that I’m working on for the Clarion West Write-a-thon:

Sunday: 806
Monday: 1000
Tuesday: 836
Wednesday: 756
Thursday: 834

I’m feeling pretty good and ahead of things, though being ahead doesn’t give me permission to slack.  After all, I pledged that I would write at least 750 words every day, not that I would average 750 words/day during the six weeks.

I sent off my first short story of the write-a-thon.  It’s called Good Neighbors and it’s a rural fantasy about an old man whose curiosity puts him into icy water when he follows a mythical creature into its underground den.  Keep your fingers crossed for me.

It’s not too late to make a donation to the write-a-thon.  Visit the Clarion West website to donate via paypal.  If you don’t have paypal, don’t worry, you can also send them a check.  The address is on their website.

Thanks to everyone who has donated so far!
