Numbers

I know my blog is mind-numbingly boring. But it keeps me honest. Thanks for indulging me.
Tuesday's numbers: 1,772
I also wrote 274 words last night. Just a minute of inspiration.
I'm including last night's in today's total of: 2,046
bringing my grand total to: 10,648

Scorpion's Tail and I are going to exchange manuscripts in August. I want to have at least 60,000 words by then. I'm going to include the first chapter, which is a story I wrote last summer, and the chapters I've already started that I'm going to finish this summer. So I should have the 60,000 words by the end of June. I hope.
Thanks for keeping me honest.

You're an inspiration. I'm sure I'll be writing shortly. Very soon. Following your lead, as it were.

Blogging as a means to committment--I like it. Announcing to the WWW as it were.

Godd luck.

Yeah, I'm trying to gear-up to join the race (because competition is the real impetus to write) but I'm having a hard time. Do I have more kids than I used to? Like more than I had in April?

Hey and you're keeping me honest cause i'm in a major self-doubting lull (where do they come from and why don't those 3 days of writing happiness last for 30?) anyway, keep at it. I can't wait to hand my stack of pages for your stack of pages!
and yes, otterbutt, we're counting you IN (without having consulted you first)
