I am beset with challenges.
Spent the morning in meetings discussing the next issue of Spirit, and with the exception of Eric's article, and whatever you are willing to write, pretty much everything else will be written by me. Plus, they want to make it four pages longer and each article a little longer.
Heavy sigh.
Coupled with vacation, this will probably be the biggest writing challenge as far as volume I have ever done in one month. With your permission, all the articles I write for Spirit I would like to include in my 45,000 word goal. Suffice it to say, i will be writing a lot in days to come.
Let me know if you can help at all.

Wrote 1,600 words today.
Goal was 19,500. I am at 20,452.
I stopped because I need to put some thought into the next scene....

Only 876 today. I spent all my time with Katie, and so I didn't get much done. Tomorrow I'm aiming at 4,000. Not sure if I have even a hope of making it, all things considered.
But I am absolutely fine with allowing the Spirit Articles to apply towards the daily word counts. I also think I'd be up for writing some myself. I haven't exactly been making a lot of money over the summer and I could use a little change. Just e-mail me some options and I'll tell you what I'm interested in.

Yeesh. I hate being so far behind!

Goal today is 21,000.
I couldn't go to sleep last night. I thought about how far I am from 45,000 and realized that between vacation next week, company coming and my second trip to Colorado I won't be able to write much beyond next Wednesday. On top of that I need to get a couple of Spirit articles done before then to even have a chance of finishing them in time.
So I have decided to do as much as I can, and not worry about it. Chances are I will be three or four chapters short of finishing the book by the time school starts. But those will be the exciting chapters that will give me added incentive to finish.
Off to writing!

2,156 so far today. I hope to do more, but now that Katie is off work there are no guarantees. Either way, it's looking doubtful I'll make the 4,000 word mark I was hoping for. Ah well.

Okay, added another 426 before bed. That makes 2,582. Tomorrow's optimum goal is 3,418 (to equalize my whole 2,000 words a day, thing...) I at least need to make 2,000 which is more likely because Katie has tomorrow off and we have things planned to be doing.
Anyways...

I am almost exactly 10,000 word behind you! O.o Ah!

Got 1360 words written before the old brain told me, "No mas!"
Am at 25,112. Goal for today is 22,500.
Hoped to get more done today, but will try to make up for it tomorrow.

Wrote 4,763 today for a total of 29,875--125 words short of 30K.
Official goal for today is 24,000.
I hope I will get to add to this total, but next week is looking pretty bleak. Most of my writing will be school stuff.
Still would like to see your comments on my short stories.

I fell off the wagon for a bit there but I'm back today with a strong 3,447. That should bring us too... Edward Cheever II's Grand Total: 17,219 Glen Robinson's Grand Total: 29,875 I'm still massively behind, but I think today's total will help out a bit. I've still been unable to get back to Elijah yet. Do you want me to e-mail everything I have done so far?
