For me 50K is only about half an average novel. For this story, more like a third :)<br /><br />the authorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03220786472896283714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-88887434332474742152014-11-01T10:25:45.503-04:002014-11-01T10:25:45.503-04:00I haven't started with the actual writing yet ...I haven't started with the actual writing yet today because there was still a few loose ends I needed to wrap up - little things like the location of the city, name of the city and the final part of the master plot. It turned out MUCH longer than I expected - but that always happens. <br /><br />This year I will not be intimidated by the sheer size of the thing. I've broken the story up into four parts, and if part one fills up the 50,000 words by the end of the month, then good! After all, there's no rule that says I have to fit the WHOLE story into 50,000 words, right? Right...? <br /><br />*runs for the hills* Keita Harukanoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8343238.post-67991308251024787922014-11-01T10:06:39.426-04:002014-11-01T10:06:39.426-04:00I consider myself speeding along, Ron, even when I...I consider myself speeding along, Ron, even when I can do nothing but crawl -- and it's not a lie. Snails consider me totally dashing!

Mind you with me it can be more of a crawl at times but I'll get to the end nonetheless. :-)<br /><br />I always have a small hope that I could one day write something I could share with others and something that made sense and was an actual story. I am hoping to get there one of these days. <br /><br />Good luck to everyone. This is supposed to be fun, right? <br /><br />Ron BAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
