Progress Is Being Made!

Finally, I've stopped farting around on my manuscripts and have made some real headway on Damnation (the sequel to Redemption), as well as the self-edits on Beyond the Beast. It's amazing how much more I can get done when I just don't have the television on.

LOL Back away from the TV and no one will get hurt.

With just some light classical music playing in the background, on Monday I managed 4,000 words on Damnation, plus 5 loads of laundry! And edits of two chapters on BtB. Tuesday I had an appointment for a perm, so not as much writing time available, and it was brought home to me once again that if I don't get started writing in the morning I manage to not get a lot done. I was able to do 1,000 words on Damnation and another chapter edited on BtB. Yesterday I had to work. I didn't plan on getting as much done, so I'm pretty happy with the 1,000 words on Damnation.

We'll have to see what today brings. My critique partners and I are going an early lunch and then it's on to see The Black Dahlia. I may (or may not) get any writing done. At the very least I hope to get more editing on BtB--I've already been through each chapter a few times, and the entire book at least twice, but once more around certainly won't hurt--so it's as polished as possible when the full is requested by an agent. (Notice I said "when" and not "if". Think positive, people!)

Ah, well. Che sera sera.

Have a good one, y'all!
