Ready or Not...Here I Write

Welcome

to the experiment/exercise/adventure that is My First Novel. I want to get it out of the way so that I can finish the other novels I've started that I care too much about. I also want to build good writing habits.

Here's how this will work: Everyday I will write 300-400 words, except Saturdays and Sundays. Saturdays will be a day of Edit and Sundays a day of Rest. I will post the original versions here daily. On most Saturdays I will post an edited hunk somewhere else (maybe Scribd or some kind of work shopping site) and let you all know about it here. Writing will begin on Sept 28 and end before my daughter's first birthday, May 27. No posts on Christmas, Thanksgiving, or my Anniversary (Dec 27).

I will not over think, over analyze (or analyze at all, really), or be overwhelmed.
I will keep my sense of humor.
I will have fun, not guilt.
I will finish.

Comments are greatly appreciated!!!
