The good news tonight was that typing up chapter ten, 2800 words turned into 3500. Which means the last 1000 words I wrote up, which I did not want to put into chapter ten, goes in as the first scene of chapter eleven, which is where I wanted it to fall.
Here’s the official word count:
39,550 / 60,000
It’s a little shy of 40,000, but that’s because the last chapter is only 3500. As I have another 1000 words past that written, just not typed, I say I’m ahead of the game.
Next week the plan is writing. And writing and writing. 2000 words per day Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, so I only have to do 4000 during the four days of comic con.
