I have just ended my eight month of my Writing Sabbatical Year. Let's see where my Year-to-Date report card is:
Submissions: 44 of 60+ (ahead)
New Short Stories: 23 of 24+ (ahead)
Freaky Friday Fictions: 37 of 50+ (on track)
Books read: 27 of 24+ (ahead)
Novel #2 word count: 34,500 (on track)
Even though I'm on track for Novel #2, it feels like it is coming slowly. I'm a little under 1/2 way done and figured out why... I know what the ending is supposed to be. I've gotten the protagonist and antagonist where I want them to be but I completely forgot to, you know, outline, or even think about, the little cat-and-mouse game that needs to go on before the ending. So, that's what I'm thinking about now.
