That’s right–I was a very good writer today and got in ten pages for my next Nocturne proposal. This one, if it sells, would be Nocturne #4. It features characters from my January Nocturne–Guardian’s Keep. Like Guardian’s Keep the hero/heroine know each other when the book starts. There are some major benefits to this set up–especially in a shorter book.
Anyway, this was my first day of “real” writing since school started and I got some quality time to myself. Before this I’d been doing revisions and plotting. I have a hard time judging my output on those days. But writing–you get the hard core word count to go by. Being a goal-oriented, deadline driven geek–I LOVE that. Yes, I chart out daily, weekly, monthly…annual…career goals. It scares some of my friends…

by TFW October 16th, 2007 at 10:12 amCongratulations on your pages! Ten pages a day is my goal too, or 50 pages a week. I put up a wordmeter on my blog, and I love it! It really increases my output. I want to see that sucker go up.
