velvetpageI think I miscounted yesterday. I left out one, three-thousand-word document while adding up the word count. It should be closer to 44 000.
I had a 2 000-word nap today, which ended rather suddenly as the baby began to scream. I went in to discover a very disgusting scene resulting, as far as we can tell, from a bit of a stomach bug. I won't bore you with the details, but it was nearly an hour later when I got back to the novel. I wrote another thousand words, for a total of three thousand this afternoon. That puts me around 47 000, which is only one more solid day's work from my end-of-vacation goal.
I'm trying very hard to stay focussed on the things over which I have control, and ignore the news. I can't do much about that, except give. I will do that much. But fretting over it won't help anyone, least of all me, so I'm concentrating on word count instead.
