I wrote over three thousand words yesterday.
I take that back. I wrote over three thousand words in seven hours.
Go me!
FlyLady says that any task will expand to fill the time allotted. Clearly that’s true. When I faced the fact that I’d better get typing or face defeat (I accepted a 10K for the three-day weekend), I set my timer and started word-warring. Where most days I write somewhere around three hundred words an hour, yesterday it was over 450. Take into account that most of those were in word wars where I wrote over 200 in fifteen minutes…
Imagine what I could do if I didn’t spend so much time playing around. Except…playing around is nourishment for the creative mind (yes, that’s my story and I’m sticking to it!) so I guess it’s a good thing.
Now, though–I need another three thousand words today! Onward!
Make peace, not war!
