I haven't had too much time to write in this blog, but for a great reason: I've been writing, instead! I finished two short stories in the past few weeks, and I've worked consistently. Because of that, I haven't wanted to stop my mojo and post here.
Which brings me to a conundrum: I initially started this blog so that I would write more consistently, the whole point being that I had to write every day so that I could post the number of words written every day.
But now I'm way beyond that. I don't need this blog anymore to get my writing done. And as it hasn't been a stop for other writers to post their word count, I'm wondering if it serves a purpose at all anymore.
Maybe I'll post here once a month, or once every few weeks, instead. Or maybe I'll just delete the blog altogether. We'll see.
At any rate:
The word count for those two short stories, plus my WIP, for the last few weeks:
Approximately 20K-25K, at a guess. Not bad for me, for the past five weeks or so.
To compel myself to write more consistently, I created this blog so that I had to post my word count every day. Therefore, hopefully, I have to write every day, in order to have words to count. Please feel free to do the same here by placing a comment.
Yay for writing!! Yes, blogging has a pesky habit of interrupting that. Nice word count!
