No writing — apartment flooded. Working on that. Staying at mom and dad’s tonight. Blah. Hope we can break our lease.

Lunch: 496!
I probably won’t get more done tonight, but I’m pretty pleased with what I got today. I know what needs to happen, it’s just kind of a “slow” part right now, so it’s tough to write. I want it to be interesting, and not just filler, but I don’t quite want to just say “and then they…” and skip all of it. Maybe I’ll need to do that when I revise, but I really want to chug through this and get it out because it will be a lot easier to cut than it will be to add.
Anyway, yeah, haven’t been hitting my targets this week, but who cares. It’s been a very busy week.
Ok, today I decided that instead of trying to force myself to write the next scene, I would try and plot out the rest of this section of the story (I’ve got three sections planned, and I’m on the first). I managed to crank out 891 words over lunch. Granted, they aren’t 891 “story” words, but I’m still pleased. When I sit down to hammer it out (maybe even tomorrow at lunch, since I did way more than I thought I would), it will be a lot easier to write. So…woo!
