So in quarantine I handwrote over seventy pages of backstory for this idea for a fantasy novel I had. I finally said: "You know I can write this all out but until I get some ink to a google doc I'm not going to really start making it real." So i set out the goal of writing a thousand words a day for May. First day was a little rough, hated how I was starting out and only got about 800 words on the screen. Second day was a bit better, still not fully there, but I made it to 2000 total words. Yesterday (incidentally the day before finals started) the flood gates opened and I was able to get to a total word count of 5,235 for my first chapter. Little long and definitely gonna need a LOT of editing, but this is a nice milestone for me for this project.
