Turning it in at 52,703 of 50,000 (105.41%).  Got… 70% of the way to a novel?  With a bunch of extraneous stuff there in the middle, most likely.  Unnecessary verbosity.  But it still feels good to hit >50,000 words in a month.
And yes, I “fini…

Skipped Thanksgiving; did a little today and tonight, trying to wrap up and round out the scene I’d been working on.  Even more convinced now that there’s a lot more than a month’s worth of writing to get me t…

Tipped up and over.  But the story is far from done.  (There’s just a lot of fluff in the early bits…)  Going to peck away at this until November is over—see how far I can take it—and stub out the rest of th…
3.5 inch poster set on the Behance Network (via Daring Fireball) — assuming that a 3.5†diskette is ⅛th of an inch thick (because I can’t find a canonical listing for this anywhere) then that would make the floppy disk stack for Photoshop CS4…

I know what you’re thinking:  Really?  You’re stopping with 290 words to go?
Well here’s what I’m thinking:  Yes, really.  These past two nights I’ve gotten a late start, but once I got that start, I’v…

Barely eeked over the minimum for the night.  Got a late start and an even later finish.  Exhausted, but holy shit why wasn’t I writing the story this way all along?

This painting was going to be different though. I wanted to take the basic story premise and change it up. Dorothy became a goth Asian chick, the Scarecrow became a highwayman, the Lion got some cajones and became a sabretooth, and th…

4,851 words to go.  10,163 words ahead of the “set†daily pace-to-match.  Roughly six and a half days ahead of schedule.
So that feels good.
But I also feel like I’m flailing a lot.  Like there’s a story in…

A little here, a little there…  Some decent scene work.  But I feel like I hit a wall.  Maybe I’ll just force a jarring transition in the next round and jump to that next idea.  Not sure how to get there from …
