Sven again – Wed Check-in

Sorry, I hope you all aren’t getting sick of Sven. I’d love to post some real blog content, but I’m too busy writing!

OK, yes, I’m not writing all of the time. I do have three kids under 8, editing work (for my editing job, not my own stuff), driving to and from school three times a day to pick up aforementioned children, dh’s business admin, volunteer work, and hmm, basically life. Whose idea was this anyway? LOL Nah, I love it when I’m busy. That’s when I do the best, although I do need downtime or I lose it just a little. I like alone time, which is hard to get in a house of five people, three of whom are small and dependent. One of whom is larger, but still slightly dependent (but shhh don’t tell him that ).

Anyway, this is the first time I’ve written since Sunday night. Yeah, life stepped in (in the form of the youngest being awake from 1am to 6am every night and the lack of sleep making my brain freeze when trying to think of where my hero had been going in that last scene). However, I wrote 1,110 words tonight and I’m very happy about that. I was worried about how to wrap this story up and it came to me. The problem now will be containing the make-up scene/conclusion to less than 3400 words, since I’m not allowed to go over 20k. I’m obviously going to go over the 18k I gave myself. That was just a guideline.

So in total, since Sven started I’ve done 6,371 words. Which may not sound like much, but for me, it’s great! Thanks, everyone, for stopping by and for all the support. I really appreciate it.
