Day 22

I hate it when my mind is running off without me in ideas. Today I have felt like I've been sitting in a dark room, no pen and paper around, the ideas are coming at me like air, and to make it worse, I can't even write the ideas in my own blood because my arms are tied behind my back. Or something like that. I have had about 4 ideas today for short stories and novels for later. I just keep telling myself that the novel at hand is the one that counts, right now. And I'm so close!

I honestly don't know how i could get though the month of this novel writing without the book Chris Baty wrote. Honestly, it makes everything better.

Oh my, we had such a great time with friends this weekend. And, i have decided that it is time (after the novel) to get a new hobby, one that the husband and I can do together, so I will be learning to play Magic as soon as he gets around to teaching me. Yup, I figured if the other Becca can do it, and that is what normally happens when our groups get together anyway, I might as well join the crowd. Which, i've never really been one to follow, but this seems like a good idea.

I am currently at my goal for today, 37000 words and counting. I was really worried about this last week, but have become very hopeful in the past few hours.
