1200 Words A Day Is Hard

I challenged myself to write 1,200 words a day on my novel. The first several days seemed easier. The last two days have been more of a challenge. I’ve written in smaller chunks of time, until I felt like I was at a stopping point. I didn’t force myself to keep going right then. I took a break.

Today, I wrote a little while, at the local coffee shop, and then I stopped. I wrote a few minutes on my iPad and stopped. I finally spent around an hour working on writing this evening, and ended up with a little over my 1,200 word quota.

One thing that I’ve been considering is where is my story going. I am making this up as I go along, so I t’s been fun thinking of different scenarios and different problems for the hero to solve.

Keep writing my friends.
