Another party in the blog!!!!

Check out that word count, baby, I'm halfway done!

WOOO!!!

It's all downhill from here! :)

Just for fun, let's do a little word count recap. I picked the novel back up this year with 17,000 words done. I beat my head against the keyboard for the next 6 months and in mid-June had a whopping 21,000. Now, two months later, I'm at 45,000.

I think the lesson I can learn here is that as much as I hated taking the time to outline the book in June, it was clearly time well spent. It's about as much fun as coming up with a new system to do laundry or getting the baby to sleep in her own bed, but worth it. (Not that I've conquered those other two things...)
