So,
this was a Friday, the end of a week where I did almost no writing.
It's not that I didn't want to (okay, yesterday I didn't want to, but I
had talked to Big who said that writing ten words in one day was better
than writing zero, because it keeps training your mind that writing is
one of the things you do every day, like eating, drinking, urinating,
and in his case, farting), but I didn't carve out a time where writing
was all I did.
Today,
I went to the library and forced myself to sit down and start writing
again. I was worried about it, because I had written myself up to the
point where Something Bad happens to Lara Demming (if you've read
"Remember the Future," you know what that thing is), and I had little idea
how to go about it.
So,
I just jumped in. I wasn't sure how horrifying to make it, so I just
wrote it out, almost clinically, was only confusion on Lara's part. Big
loves to butcher innocents (in his writing, I mean), so I texted Big
while it was happening, and he too was writing, during a slow stretch at
work. We bounced word count back and forth, which is pretty cool, and
while I barely beat his word count for the day, he's definitely got me
beat for the month.
But fiddle-dee-dee, tomorrow is another day.
