Reset

So November faded away without a completed manuscript. Damn it.

The new goal is to have Todd & Amber's tale finished by Christmas.

It's tough to write, I admit, when my hours at work are so helter-skelter. I work retail. It's Christmas. That means it's all kinds of fun. Mostly I'm exhausted when I come home that all I want to do is sit on the couch and veg out watching Storage Wars. That, however, is not getting the story written.

So it's time to suck up my whining and write the book.

It was way easier to write at my last job...when I opened up the Word file instead of tackling a job sitting on my desk. Yeah. Employee of the Month I was not.

I read somewhere on a blog (and I wish I could remember where to give credit where it's due) that 500 words = 30 minutes of writing and 1,000 words = 1 hour.

The goal is 35,000 words and that means I have 31,000 words to go. One hour a day gives me 31 days.  And my goal is Christmas?

Good luck, Jenna. Good freakin' luck.
