That's a lot of words

I was just going back through my blog entries, and I realized that it was one month ago tonight that I started working on the new book. In that time, I've written more than 40,000 words. I'm sure there are some writers who would think that's kind of trivial, but that's a pretty impressive flow for me.

I've felt like I wasn't writing as much as I should, but when I sit down and realize that it's 40,000 words in 30 days...well, I'm not sure what to say other than way to go me!

See! Just a little more shoving and you could have written 50K in November for Nanowrimo.

Very impressive, J. As people told me when I was pushing out the 50K: Subplot, subplot, subplot!

What happened with the guy's neighbor? How does his mom view his change from sniveler to hero? A little flashback with Dad, maybe.

Keep going!
