I started #WIP500 last night. I hit right at 500 words, estimated, and finished before bed. The cool thing is I had a spot of inspiration, and thought of a spiffy plot twist that just might result in me being able to combine the two endings I'm battling in a way that's sensible and pleasing to me.
I wanted to write more today, but I've been so cold that my poor fingers couldn't hold a pen, and barely type. I spent most of the day snuggled under a sherpa throw and two cats, just trying to stay warm.
So what do you think... can I really write 500 words a day, every day?
Can I do it for the whole year?
I can... but will I?

My one resolution for 2012 is;
"Five minutes of writing a day for a year equals a book." It equals about 100 'good' words. That will work out to 35,600 words...A BOOK! And you know some days you just don't want to stop.
Now I just have to pick a WIP or use one of my 2 or 3000 ideas. And FOCUS.
So how are you doing tall dragon lady? Remember me from the SCBWI LA conference 4 years ago (or was it five???!!) – Kate Higgins
Doing pretty well! I"m not sure what conference you're talking about... if it was in LA, it wasn't me. :) I never made it to California until NOWD in November.
