With Bated Breath

[sinanju]

Argh! The agony of waiting! But more about that in a later post.*

As of today I'm back to my previously successful writing regimen. Get up, shower, dress, drive my lovely and talented wife to work. Return home. (Stopping at the grocery store for a few items is optional.) Exercise--today I went for a 30 minute power walk instead of running, but at least I got out and got some exercise. I'll get back to running anon.

Then I write for an hour. (Set the timer, start writing. When the timer dings, check my word count.)
Get up, move around, exercise, get a drink.
Write for another timed hour.
Spend some time working out possible story ideas--plots, characters, backgrounds, whatever. This is the non-writing portion of my writing. Prep work for future writing.
I also did some more writing this afternoon. End result: 3,877 words.

*I was going to explain that...but I've changed my mind. You'll know more when I know more.
