I’m on a writing blitz. After not writing a word for the past three days, I wrote at least 3,000 words tonight. Scenes seemed to write themselves. It was rather amazing.
This doesn’t happen to me normally, but I didn’t want to stop a good thing while it was rolling along. Therefore, it’s 12:45 in the morning and yes, I’m still up. And I have to get up early in the morning to ride into town with my husband so I can pick up my car at the shop after not having it for a week. Yipee. Besides the fact I gotta take care of my kids like every other normal day.
But I don’t care, it was worth staying up. I am at 66,217 words total. I am almost finished with this bad boy. For real. It feels freakin’ wonderful.
In fact, I still feel like I could write more. But I gotta go to bed. Really. Hope the word flow is still in me tomorrow. Er, I mean later today.

Wow! That’s fabulous, good for you!

Awesome, Karen! You’re so close!!
On my first ms, I wrote it in about 6 months, but at the end, I had like 2-3 nights in a row where I wrote 10-15 pages each! The ending just poured out (ok, it was total crap, but that was just the theme of the book in general! lol)
Good luck again tonight!

That’s awesome, Karen! When you get into those grooves and keep writing. Be proud of yourself and find that excitement again and again and again.. hee hee. It’s so easy to open your story and just stare at it thinking “So, guys, what do you want to do today? More sex? Go to a carnival?”
April says:
Fantastic! That’s wonderful. You have to let it flow when it can and when it does, it’s GREAT!
Hope you’re able to get back into the groove. (Why did I just imagine a disco light above my desk when I wrote that?)

Oh how I wish a blitz would happen to me. I’m getting nowhere fast, I’m afraid.
