Last Thursday I started working on a new novel. I have a bunch of novels in various states of outlining, and I even have one at the 25000 word mark. That one, unfortunately, is undergoing a plot change that means I need to rewrite a lot of it. Which means I am stalled out on it. This new novel though, was an idea I had that I really wanted to do. To make it even more challenging I wanted to see if I could write the first draft in a month and a half. My target word count is between 60K and 75K as I feel that’s a good length for a novel. I have another goal which is to get more description in. I want my draft chapters to be at least 1500 words.
So I get to writing and start pounding out the story. Only I don’t have an outline or anything, just this really awesome pair of characters. So what do you do in a situation like that? Well, I plugged myself into some music and let it flow through me. I like to listen to acoustic mood music. No lyrics or very few lyrics is the best. It swirls through my brain like a symphony of colors, summoning pictures of places and people. Soon, my fingers were flying across the keyboard.
Today as I write this, just one week after I started this project, I am sitting at 11K words! I just finished Chapter 7. I feel like I should be further in, but I did have a couple days where life happened and I couldn’t write. Doing the math though, I found that I have done on average 1571 words a day. That is a pretty good accomplishment, and if I maintain that pace, a 60K word novel will take 38 days to write. With 7 days down, I’ve got a month to go and the draft to my new book will be done.

Today, millions men have erection problem and they find it more difficult to make intercourse cialis tablets australia pleasurable. It is important levitra professional to adhere to the suggested way.
Obviously getting the draft done does not equate to a finished product. Remember that you can’t edit a blank page. Getting the story written is 90% of the battle. That’s why it is so important to really ride yourself into getting that draft done, because when its done the story is out there. Beginning, middle, and end. Once there, you can start polishing that turd into a brilliant literary work of genius!
Keep Writing!
Well folks, I have started a new project.
Will Work 4 Loot. This is a story idea i had that revolves around a group of dungeon delvers and the exploits they have trying to save their town from the dungeons underneath it. This work is geared towards young adults but will not be containing explicit language or violence, so younger readers should enjoy it also.
To help get this project off the ground I have started a Patreon page at
