1k-a-day Day 10

Day 10 already! Wow, we're moving fast, 1/3 the way there. Just think, if you keep up the pace you had in week 1, you could have a first draft done by the end of the month! Keep it up, girls!

Tami's day 9 word count:
1,065
Tami's July word count: 9,858
Overall word count: 3,200 (for Worst Days)
Cups of coffee drank: 2
Music: Vampire Weekend ( I don't have a playlist for this new book yet, so I've been all over the place as far as music is concerned.)
Mindset: Today is an odd writing day for me. I actually had a lot going on at work so I didn't think I would get writing time. Between that and surfing the web :::ducks from the guilt::: I thought it would be another late night writing. At the end, I pulled it off before leaving work. Of course, I'm at work later (it's now 7:11pm) but I can go home guilt free to read two days in a row! What a concept!


Hope you weren't up too late writing, Tracy! I will say, I prefer this new writing schedule I'm on, thanks for switching with me. ;)

-------------------------------------
OMG - so we got up early today and took the dogs for a swim on the beach before the crowds showed up - and I totally forgot to post my day 9 info - oops, sorry it's a bit late. :)

Tracy's day 9 word count: LI: 540, WS: 1452
Tracy's July word count: 14 483
Overall word count: LI now: 36 163, WS now: 14 361
Cups of coffee drank:
Music: Silence - but not the silence of the lambs. ;)
Mindset: Yesterday was a hurry, blurry kind of writing day. I wrote a ton in the morning (back to my old self!) and then in spirts throughout the day. Spreading it out was kind of fun - I'd watch a movie with the hubbie and then "go dark" and hide in my office to write.

Hope we all have a productive weekend!

Okay, I really suck at writing this month. Sigh. Sad numbers my friends, sad numbers. Tonight 725 words total for ROF = 16,334. editing and marketing is eating up my time.

Kitty, I hear ya... I'm doing a lot of promo/marketing for my autumn release so it's taking up a lot more of my day than writing is right now. But all in a day's work, right? You're still kickin' it, so keep it up!

Way to go, Karin! Very nice. I'm impressed and hope I get a day like that soon.

Okay, here we go....

Day 10 word count = 1,004
Total July word count = 11,344

I'm hoping for a productive weekend. Fingers crossed.

If you're sitting and writing every day, Kitty, it counts! Don't beat yourself up! Any word is a good word IMO. :)

Karin...WOW! GO YOU! Can you almost taste the free contest book? LOL. Keep it up!

Lori, not too shabby! You've hit 1k every day so far, right? Impressive!

WOF: 37,003, BT: 16,235, NEW 150
WOF: 38,313, BT: 16,234, NEW UGH

I keep having trouble getting these in :) I'm still working on todays (it's 11:09 here) so will post those tomorrow (or tonight if I can)

As you can see, I actually went backwards on one :( but my over all word count is good, at 1,312. It's a good thing since today's numbers arent' looking so hot.

To karinlibrarian:

Awesome job! keep it up :)

WE are all doing amazing. Thank you all for helping me stay consistent.
