Yesterday there were no words. There was, instead, me cutting prices of all my writing classes over $20 by 50% — the economy is not great, and indications on whether it will get better or worse are all over the place.

I had to do it last of the things on my list, but after writing and sending out a couple of emails today, I set down with the words, fell right into the story, and got 1215.

Excellent Monday! And how often does anyone get to say that? I rolled into work this morning (a few hours ago) with my Conflict Sentence in the right corner of Scrivener. That’s Protagonist Versus Antagonist in Setting with Twist in 30 words or less. Today’s chapter sentence was twenty-nine words, and was the aftermath of… Continue reading Oh, boy!
