The Story Match Challenge—Day 18: July 24, 2015

I woke with a headache, today. I managed to complete another two classes of prep today (and another 1,300 words of study-related matter) before the headache got me and I had to go soak in the tub and then nap. Woke about an hour later feeling much better and did a few chores before sitting down to type before watching Dr. Who with my littlest. The story grew to 500 words in a half hour, and then it was Dr. Who time, followed by a spot of knitting and the bedtime-story routine and then I sat back down to type. A paragraph into it and I remembered I hadn’t posted the last two blogs, so that happened, and then I got back to it.
Tonight’s story is aiming at 4,400 words and the randomly rolled title was 93-Years of and 89-Voyage, so Years of Voyage it was. It’s another story about a recently established colony. Tonight, I will have to listen to my body and stop when it says to, or I will be sick tomorrow, so I probably won’t complete the story, but we’ll see how it goes.Dean talked about the earning life of short storiesand how that earning potential has improved in recent times.I finished at 2,259 words. I seriously didn’t want to stop, but I don’t get to sleep in for however long I need and I’m tired and still not a hundred per cent, so I need to stop and sleep. Poetry and Flash Fiction were not completed.Total Words for Today: 4,527
