Who Da Man?

[sinanju]

I da man! Not quote 2800 words today! Woohoo!

This new approach may work very well. Or maybe the story I'm writing today is just coming to me easily. I guess we'll see...

In addition to having a story concept in mind before I start, I tried another approach today. I set a kitchen timer for one hour and wrote. When the alarm sounded. I stopped, did a little exercise, threw some laundry in the washer, drank some water. Then I set it for another hour and wrote. Then I had a one hour lunch, worked on laundry, and watched an episode of BONES on DVD from the rental store (I'm watching the first season over again).

After lunch, another hour. Then exercise, laundry, etc. Then the final hour of writing. It's only one data point, but if this pattern holds up, that's a real good approach it seems.
