Even though I’m super stressed and distracted, I managed to write another 6 pages today, for my 2nd novel, got about 70 pages total now. Only about 200-300 more to go…

I just hope it isn’t the writing that has you super stressed and distracted or this could become self-perpetuating.I hope it’s not the elections as that could be terminal.

The writing is fine, the personal life is the stressor. LOL. Thanks, David.

That’s fantastic! If you are feeling stressed, take a short break and then go back to the novel. I know you can do great job!

Are you giving out any hints yet as to the general story line? Also I have been really curious, if you’re open to sharing, how many downloads and copies of Dream Brother have you sold/given out since its release? Seems like you’ve been rocking.

I use tricks to keep myself motivated–70 pages in means already about a quarter done . . . . Good luck with the writing.

I’m curious is this a follow on to the first one or something totally new?

I admire the quote because mainly this is all there is to writing. I’ve cranked out about 100 “book” pages for one project and about 50 “book” pages to another project. But, like an great procrastinator, film school has become an obstacle, while being tired is another issue. This is a great reminder. I need to finish. Thanks Indiehero.

I just finished my sixth and its at the publisher. It’s easy when the Lord is dictating what to write. Just type what He tells you. 🙂 Congratulations.
