Given I want to do 1,500 words a day, I’m really kicking butt.

Words before: 9,632

Words today: 3,406

Total word count: 13,038

I’m just flying through this. Admittedly, I have had two days off, so I’m sure the next little bit my word count will be around the 1,500 range. But we’ll see!

Today’s picture inspiration was brought to you by the letter “G.”

And no. No one dies. This is a mood-setting picture.

I’ve spent a little bit of time the past few days getting the story going so when today came I wouldn’t spend an hour going, “Uh, how do I start this thing?” I set myself up so I could just wake-up and get going on it. A few days ago, I wrote 3,744 words. Yesterday, in less than two hours, I pushed out another 1,549 words, leaving me with a running total of 5,293 words. My goal is to do ~1,500 words a day, so jamming out 1,549 in less than two hours is really inspiring for me.

But I am NOT counting the 5,293 words as part of the 50k challenge. That was just to get me started.

Then today happened:

I started my story today with 5,293 words.

Words added: 4,339

Total word count: 9,632

If you ask me, I’m off to an amazing start!

Let’s keep this ball rolling!

I had these three images for inspiration today:
