"Writing makes no noise, except groans" - Ursula LeGuin

So, I figure if I write at least 1k a day throughout July and August, I'll nail BLOOD HUNT. The first draft anyway. Ideally I will write more than that, especially at the weekends, but since 1k today has made my entire arm a raging mass of agony, I don't want to push it. Even with my wrist brace, various potions and unguents, and the physio exercises, I'm still struggling. But 1k is a nice, easy target, one I have surpassed this afternoon by writing 1,500 words anyway. Huzzahs!

 

8522 / 70000 words. 12% done!

The more I write, the more certain I am I made the right choice to start over and go in a different direction. The mystery is set-up, the main players are almost all in place, and Ayla is delightfully annoyed that her first night in Paris was spent babysitting a pregnant werewolf. But I've said too much...

Have you thought about getting Dragon Naturally Speaking or something like it. We had a version shortly after it came out and it is pretty handy when it is hard to type.
