Evening Update: Only three more pages tonight, but I finished the section I was on and started another. I’m so tired. :yawn: So only 16 pages today, but I’m still ahead of schedule!
Morning Update: I almost didn’t make it this morning. The alarm went off. I do remember that. But I immediately dozed back off. Since That Man gets particularly grouchy if I dare wake him up, I don’t snooze the alarm any more. Thankfully, I woke myself up about 20 minutes later and immediately got up. It was a close call, though, and exactly why I set the back-up alarm for my normal wake-up time just in case. At least we wouldn’t have been late for work and school if I hadn’t woken up again.
Since I got a late start, I only got 13 pages. Still, not bad at all. Less than 100 to go! And the great thing I realized today: my usual “dark moment” when I’m writing the dark moment didn’t happen. Usually I hit page 290-310 of a 400-page book and just slog for days or weeks. Fast Draft doesn’t allow that to happen.

Way to go! I hate it when I drift back to sleep like that. Now that it’s lighter out earlier I’m going to try getting up early again to write. I have such a hard time doing that in the winter. I hate the dark.
Good luck with the rest of your writing this week!

Christine, I call it “Dark and Early” and it is hard. I keep telling myself it’s only two weeks! Thanks, and you too!
