15% complete!

Being that I have been at this 500 words a day thing for 11 days straight now, I am happy to report that my goal of 42,000 words or bust is now 15% complete!

This means I am not a total slacker, woohoo!

That seems a bit more impressive than it is, in some ways, and truly unimpressive it others. But I'll break it down like this:

GOOD:

Chipping away at the novel in manageable chunks
Writing every day
Focusing on the goal, which is a coherent overall story line written in small doses

BAD:

I "started" this novel back in, what, April? And I'm only 15% done?!

But really, I only truly started this novel with my 500 words per day goal. So although I am "behind" in the sense that I started planning and thinking about writing this months ago, I've only recently truly planted my butt in the chair with the daily intent to get it done.

So I guess that all evens out in the end, right?

If not, you'll just have to wait a few more months for my masterpiece.

Oh, and by the way, I realized that this is actually a tale involving so much more than sex. Here is the formula:

Punks + classical arteests + wealthy assholes + sexy vixens = MY AWESOME NOVEL!

Dig it. I love how this shit continues to evolve.
