I started off with good intentions

ann_leckieI planned to post my daily wordcount, since I'm participating in the Clarion West WriteAThon. And I actually have sponsors. Hello, lovely sponsors, and thank you!!!
I did hit my wordcount during the second week, and then realized that what was happening was the thing that happens every year during NaNo--I'm pumping out the words, stuff is happening--but it's the wrong stuff, I've taken a wrong turn and written a bunch of stuff I just shouldn't have.
So this week I went back and pruned and rewrote and now I have three more or less respectable chapters I can present to my unsuspecting meatspace writers group. (Three chapters now, then nothing for months and months! Then the whole ms in one big lump. That's how I roll.)
So there is writing happening. Daily, in fact! And one of these days I'll get things listed again at my Etsy store--things have lapsed, and I've made new stuff that needs to be photographed, and....I'll have to set a deadline for myself for that, I think.
