Congrats DK!
Cranking out my 1000 a day, plus rough editing the prior days work. Still, I got out of whack because I'm taking an online class requiring 15 pages a week and crits on everyone else's. And, because I really don't know these guys, the assignment of rough shitty draft 15 pages isn't as shitty as normal. I mean, if you've got classmates reading it and the agent teaching it? You spend more time revising and editing even it's still in crappy shape... It's a 12 week class and at 7 weeks, we've weeded out the less serious writers and are down to a hard core of folks plugging out work. (Or perhaps the serious writers are concentrating on their work and not posting or doing critiques. LOL.)
At this point, we're cranking out fresh pages and we're giving each other lots of leeway for shit... Challenging, fun, but I miss my sole concentration on my work... Yet, I'm getting great feedback weekly.
Best writing all.
Whoever put me onto Chuck's writing thoughts--Thank you. I read them daily as a kick starter, or perhaps a butt kicker would be more appropriate.
