The Words: 1824 words today. Sundays are pretty full for us lately with church in the morning, Christmas choir practice in the afternoon, and grocery shopping with my husband while our daughter is at youth group in the evening. I did a 10-minute sprint in the short window of time I had in the afternoon and got around 800 words. Then this evening, I used the Sprinter site and just wrote until I’d gotten another 1000 words.

The Story: Garend’s evaluation is over, but things aren’t quite looking up yet. He’s finally made it within the boundaries of Newland, but he’s still not allowed to see or know anything until the results come back on his evaluation. I have no actual book plans for any of what I’m writing yet, but if I ever decided to use any of this in a future book, I’d really have to pare it down. It’s interesting for me to be exploring this process, but overall pretty boring stuff.
