Pleased

Ended up writing 2,500 words of the porn novel yesterday, which wasn't bad for a Saturday. Once I started writing, it was relatively easy. It was just getting around to starting that was hard.

Chose the porn book cos it's the shortest one; only needs to be 80,000 words. 6,500 down, 73,500 to go. So, if I write at the same rate as yesterday every day, it'll be finished in 29 days. Somehow seems more manageable that way. And at least I've got the synopsis out of the way so I know what's happening in it.

Determined to finish writing at least one of my novels. Fed up of being one of those writers who's got the first three chapters and a synopsis for numerous books but nothing complete. Problem is, I start writing them but because I don't write every day, it takes ages and I lose interest. So, must write some novel every day.

Off to write some more while I've got the motivation.
