The Nov. '05 1k 2day thread

Good Word · Nov 3, 2005

Let's report here, and keep the WPR for weekly stuff--that way we get to report our most excellent progress in two places.

I did my 1k yesterday!

Today is going to be a little tough because I don't have any childcare, but I will make it. I am going for averages, if I go over, I get to have that in the "word bank" if I need it for the next day.

Go Joanne!

Go Kita!

Where is everyone else?

Good Word · Nov 3, 2005

Well, here I am, all by my lonesome self. It's so empty and echoey in here, but let me yell...

I did my 1k today-ay-ay-ay-ay!

Is anybody in here?

Who turned out the lights?

Good Word · Nov 4, 2005

Looks like I'm dancing with myself

oh oh a-oh

oh oh a-oh

dancin' with myself

dancin' with myself

la la la la la

did my 1k nyah nyah

MacAllister · Nov 6, 2005

I'll dance with you, Lisa! I've been out of town, and I'm on airplanes all day today, but I've cranked out somewhere between 3-5K words so far this month, and I'll crank out another 1K while I'm flying.

Sound off, you slackers! Lisa is in here being a good example!

LISA, for heaven's sake!

Tiaga · Nov 6, 2005

I walked 1k the other day.

Good Word · Nov 6, 2005

Hey Mac,

Hope you aren't actually flying the dang thing yourself while writing.
Aren't there laws against that?

ba-da-bing

Tiaga,

Don't make me come over there, wolfie.

I'm in a minor panic now, which isn't good because it makes me want to stick my head in the sand. I was out of town yesterday and most of today, and I'm exhausted. But I have alot of catchup writing to do. Yikes and a half.

oh oh a-oh
oh oh a-oh

Sleep is for Wimps, Allen.

I don't think I quite kept up with the 1k 2day challenge this past week. I need to get a count as most of my work was done longhand while traveling last week. Will definitely try to do better this week.

So far today I've completed a 600 word column. I have just received notice that a Dec. 1st deadline has moved to THIS FRIDAY! ACK!

I'll count up my words for last week and post soon. Meanwhile, keep it going!

oy--*whew*!

Just finished my 1K today.

Barely.

Anyone else?

Good Word · Nov 7, 2005

Working on it now. Can't find the scrap of paper that I wrote my starting word count on today...

MacAllister · Nov 7, 2005

Get TO it, girlie! You're running out of "today" to write with.

Must be all that dancing--cuts into the writing time!

Some of us are waiting anxiously to READ that book, ya know.

Good Word · Nov 7, 2005

Well, jeez, I think I did it, fer cryin' out loud.

zzzzzzz...

batyler65 · Nov 8, 2005

Hmm. Running a couple hundred words short for yesterday. Will have to do something about that today.

Good Word · Nov 8, 2005

Ugh! I found the scrap of paper that had my word count in my car this morning and I was short by a little over 200 words.

I'm not gonna let it get to me though (any more). Today is a clean slate and I'm already falling asleep. I mean, I've already done a few hundred words.

batyler65 · Nov 8, 2005

My count for today is 1227 making up for the 200 I was short yesterday.

Might write some more later tonight. Will just have to see how it goes.

Good Word · Nov 8, 2005

I'm finishing up my day at exactly 1110 words.

batyler65 · Nov 9, 2005

Took me all freakin' day, but I finally topped out at 1129. Whew. Think I might sleep soon.

C'mon guys. Status report?

Good Word · Nov 10, 2005

What I did was so lame, I'm not even going to post it--okay, 350 words. I won't even start the list of lame reasons--okay, I got locked out of the house, and a multitude of unforseen events. Please can I stay after school for detention?

Today is a clean slate. Pressing RESET now.

batyler65 · Nov 10, 2005

Have squeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeezed out 1213 words today. It was like pulling teeth. From a sabre-toothed tiger. Without the benefit of tranquilizers or leather gloves.

Don't know why things were so tough today. *shrug*

Anybody else?

Good Word · Nov 10, 2005

I'm just sitting down. Impossible day--no preschool on Thursdays, and packing for long weekend. It's one of those days where I have to look back at the last three weeks and appreciate how much I've done so I can keep my momentum.

I think you can, I think you can, I think you can, I think you can.....

Good Word · Nov 10, 2005

Thanks, Unique.

I pulled something like 570ish words from the air and entered them into my manuscript.
Not a thousand, but I'll take it.

Gotta get some rest. It's 2am and my daughter will be up at six.

But let me tell you a secret: my manuscript is now at 23,668.

Oh my.

Good Word · Nov 11, 2005

Well, today I did 1038 words.

Oh oh a-oh.

That's not a secret, Lisa, that is something to shout from the mountaintops!

WOOOOOOOOOOHOOOOOOOOOOO!

Keep cranking!
