working again (on something new) June 29, 2007

I wrote 665 words yesterday.  It was great.  Life has been so crazy that I haven’t been writing, and it’s still crazy, but it was driving me even more crazy to not be writing, so here I am again.  My house is not at all unpacked from the latest move (2 weeks ago), and we have no fence, or blinds, or numerous other things in our new house.  I also still have a 2.5yo and 1yo running me ragged, I’m making way too many things from scratch due to the 1yo’s soy allergy, and the 2.5yo has a developmental evaluation next week for some serious speech delays.  But oh well.  I’m actually pretty happy, and all because I’m not only writing, but having a good time doing it.  Of course, I did something I swore I wasn’t going to do.  I started something new (despite the fact that I already have 4 works-in-progress that I really do want to finish).  The new book is a little lighter reading, and therefore a little lighter writing, and I’m really enjoying it.  Hopefully I can keep up production.  I’m hoping for 500 words today and another 500 tomorrow.  My parents are coming to visit next week, so writing goals will probably be slightly lower.
