Ups and Downs

In spite of all yesterday's triumphs, I got very little actual writing done -- my count now stands at 52,069 instead of the projected 56,000. However, I decided that being totally wiped out from my weekend speaking and singing at a women's conference (about which I still have to blog), and having reached my April goal of 50,000 words, entitled me to take a couple of days off. I'll try to get at least another 1000 words written today, but I'm not going to beat myself up if I can't get my fuzzy brain to stretch beyond that. As long as I'm still moving forward...

I do miss the FDE crowd from jmprince's journal, though. Without a daily thread to report to, and that little train to remind me I'm not alone, it feels awfully lonely out here in First Draft Land.
