lagilmanIt is not raining. Yet. It will be. I know this.
However, I have fresh-baked cibatta with raspberry spread, and so I am content (http://phillipsfarms.com is my new Internet BFF. Mmmm their fruit spreads are GOOD! And sugar-free.)
2100 new words + 600 new words + PR Stuff Accomplished = a decent day's work yesterday. I find that 2-3k a day I can maintain more-or-less consistently. If I push it and try to go for 4k? Word hangover, and I'm not going to be good for much the next day. And it only took me a decade to figure this out.
(An ideal day would be: wake up at a reasonable hour. gym. coffee. write 2,000 words. have lunch. write another 2,000 words. make a lovely dinner. go to bed at a reasonable hour. Alas, there is more to making a living than just the writing part.)
Today the word count will be less, as I have to go see a vampire, and then go see a man about a computer problem (his, not mine). But I have printouts to scribble on, so the subway time will not be wasted...
oh, and B&N is having a clearance sale. Up to 50% off books, dvds, etc. Just thought I'd let y'all know that. :-)
