It's The Journey Not The Destination

 You have heard it before, it is the journey not the destination.

That is probably true.  

I have an idea for a big book.  500 page book.  4 Characters viewpoint in each chapter..  That means that I will have 4 major character Arks.  That means that I will have 4 main characters in every chapter.

It is a Road trip book with a map, a goal and destination.  Every character will have a different goal.  

Why do I want to write this book.  Because it is in my head.  I want this book out of my head.

So I have took a step yesterday on this journey.

Yesterday I wrote 2,168 words

Goal is to write 125,000 words

Deadline December 31,2020

Words left to write, 116,235

I will be blogging on my progress on my word count.

I know in another post I said that I was not going to keep track on word count.  I can write 1,000-3,000 words a day and they might just be starting a new story or working on a story, but not being focused on one book.

This word count is for one book.  I want to write everyday at least 2,000 words or more.

Do you want to write a first draft of a book?  Join me on this journey.  It is the end of the year.  What better way to start the new year, by having a rough draft to rewrite, rework and edit and publish.

Writing When Sick
