Day two has gone well. I re-read what I wrote yesterday, got myself into it and pushed out another slightly-higher-than-goal count for today. Which is actually yesterday, now, but never mind that. I’ve updated the word count meter here. I’ve also added a poll over there, so hop to. I’ll wait until you get back.

My apologies for the lateness of this posting. Issues arose both personally and professionally that distracted me from the blog and I promise to spank myself later. With a paddle.
Meanwhile, in the Writersphere….
It’s that time of year again, folks! Insanity ensues with writers from all over the globe putting fingers to keys, pens to paper and voice to tape all in the hopes of creating 50,000 new words towards a novel in November.

I certainly haven’t mastered it yet, but I have developed strategies to help keep my point of view on track.
