...that's me finished for the day now.
I'm relieved that I can stop climbing now and just let gravity take over... assuming I can get 7 chapters done more often than not, I'll hopefully be finished on Tuesday, but I'm not gonna rush it or put pressure on myself to finish it by then, I'm gonna keep taking my time and enjoying the process.
27 chapters down, 23 to go.
Time for my chapter choccie then close down the writing programmes for another day I reckon.
I'm over the top of the hill now so it's just getting to the finish line in one piece. It's gonna be weird 'cos I've got a house assessor coming out tomorrow afternoon for a "5 minute assessment that you don't need to be there for" but I will 'cos they will have to come through the house to get to it lol. Sunday is my usual meal with my in-laws then Monday starts the bathroom "being totally ripped out" for "up to 2 weeks", so that'll be fun, in a not sort of way lol
I'm gonna have my chapter choccie reward and maybe try and sneak in a 7th chapter before bedtime.
Pretty proud of myself for everything I've accomplished today!
...I'm officially half way through the novel now and I'm gonna indulge in another treat-sized bar of chocolate for reaching the end of a chapter, a Glitterberry J2O for reaching 5 chapters in one day and a J2O Mocktail for hitting the half way point... basically a lot of liquid this afternoon lol
I'm definitely gonna have earned my 5 chapter reward pretty easily today 'cos I've just finished my 4th chapter of the day, so I've only got one more chapter to write in about 6 hours to get my reward and be able to say that I'm already half way through it!
It's been a weird few days, but I'm almost at the top of the hill now, then I'll be able to see the finish line and I'll be getting my second wind ready for the sprint finish to completion in less than 10 days!
I've just sped through the third chapter of the day and my muse did all the typing again, I merely provided the body!
Time to have my chapter choccie before I start on the next one while I wait for the door to go with my lunchtime carer... I'm within touching distance of the half-way point of the entire novel now and after only 4 days!
What an intense chapter that was to write! I've got slightly over the target word count for that chapter, but every one of those words typed themselves and it's what editing is for after all, right?
Time for my chapter choccie, another hot drink and writing my third chapter in 4½ hours (including the time with my first carer of the day) which ain't too bad. I've still got about 2 hours before my lunch slot starts, so I'm hoping to bang out at least another chapter in that time... gotta have my chapterly reward first though lol
The first chapter took a couple of hours to write and I forgot to have my chapter choccie, so I'm catching up on myself now with the reward and updating this blog.
Now that the first chapter is out of the way, I should be able to breeze through the rest of the chapters today... it's always the firsts that are hardest to write, both of the novel and of each day, but now that I've got it under my belt for today, hopefully the other four (or hopefully more) chapters should be a lot easier now that I'm in my writing headspace for today.
