Inside the Writer's Garret

On writing and life, with a little chocolate thrown in from time to time.

Write A Thin

12/29/2014

As 2015 begins, I'm ready to take the plunge with the WFWA Write-A-Thin again. The idea? Set a goal for the month of January and then set to. I did the write-a-thin last year and loved all the support from my fellow Women's Fiction writers. There was lots of fun and encouragement. My goal then was to take a good chunk out of "Sweet Auralie (which I was calling "Willow at the time), the final part of the Sweet Lenora Series. I had hoped to get it to 20,000 words and I didn't quite make it that far. But I did finish the entire draft last November. Getting a good start with WFWA really helped it along. 
This year, I plan to work on my ski novel, The Fall Line. The draft is about two-thirds (or so) done at 50K as of this writing. I hope to get it to about 64K by the end of January, which will get me to the home stretch with the book. Wish me luck!

Update from the Garret: I did it! I hit my 64k goal yesterday, Friday 23 with a week to spare!  Oh yeah, that's right!
