Today!

Today was a huge day for me. I wrote 6,688 words! I did that along with all of my usual housework. Those who follow me on Twitter, got to watch my progress. Hopefully I wasn't too obnoxious! I also found a new band to be obsessed with, The Paper Kites. They are so fun!

That's the life!

As I sit here at my desk, with my feet propped up, getting some writing done my husband is downstairs dusting! He is wonderful! He has been working twelve hour days because its Outage time, and has a limited number of days off before H comes, and he chose to let me have the day off instead of him today!

Updates....

Whew! It feels nice to sit for a minute and catch my breath! I even managed a 'rest' today in between holding the leveler for my husband while he hung pictures in the baby's room, holding the base of the light while he installed a new dining room light, running to drop off a donation at Goodwill, and going through packages of baby things that were delivered today.

Done!

I'm finally done with my outline. Well, as done as I can be at this point. I'm not quite sure how I feel about the third plot point for my story, but I was able to get a ton figured out in the past two days. My overall outline ended up being a bit over 10,000 words, including my scenes outline, character bios, and plot points that I wrote out and decided to go ahead and plug in so I know what I am working toward.

More on Outlining...

The further I get into this project, the more I realize that it is WAY bigger then I originally thought. Outlining takes a lot of work and dedication. I realized that I was less prepared then I thought that I was. To push myself along, on top of the previous books I recommended I have also been taking tips from these two books.
