I was looking at my writing log this morning and I declare a victory.  Since Jun 9, which was the first Monday of summer vacation, I have met my writing quota every day except one– the infamous Game Developer Tycoon episode.  I’m feeling pretty good about it too.

I don’t know about anyone else, but it’s hard to stay focused on writing for a long time, especially in the first half of a novel.  Once you reach that tipping point when you can see the downward slope to the end, it’s not so bad.  Still, writing 50,000 words or 125,000 words and trying to make it all fit into one continuous narration that makes some kind of point.  It’s pretty daunting.

So you take a victory when you can, and today I declare a victory.  I haven’t finished anything except about a month (minus one day) of meeting my goals.  Hooray for me.
