Writing is really great fun - but it's not good exercise. I went on a 5 mile sponsored walk today and I'm really feeling it tonight!
I've not really written much this week - I've been feeling quite run down so I compassionately gave myself a week off. But I'm determined to knuckle down in the next few weeks and get Hospital Corners up and running again. I've reached 819 on Authonomy now - not bad when you consider the fact I started at 4-thousand and something-th when I uploaded the book in July! I really want to get the first draft completed by November, so I can devote that whole month to NaNoWriMo.
NaNoWriMo is National Novel Writing Month - the chance to write at least 50000 words in exactly one month. I'm torn between two completely different ideas and styles. Another lit-fic book called Agoraphobics Anonymous (for which I have no plan other than the title and a three sentence pitch) or a chick-lit book putatively called Tai Chi in Jimmy Choos (for which I have chapter plans and character ideas).
I'll keep you updated on my progress - both with Hospital Corners and NNWM. Right now I'm off for a cup of tea and a hot bath for my aching tootsies.
