Things Decided

Well, Camp isn't going as well as I could hope. Partly, it's where I am in the story - what I know, what I don't, what is tripping me up. Partly, it's been a busy (and challenging) time at work and it's been difficult to disengage my brain from it.

So, the things I have decided:

• 50,000 words is not attainable. I've lowered the number to 30,000. We shall see how close I get to that.
• Taking a lesson from SharedWorlds - specifically Sharon Shinn's advice - I'm just going to put words down. It doesn't matter if they aren't the right ones. It doesn't even matter if they don't make it into the final version. Just write the words and fix them later.

Right now, I'm going to pack my bags for the office, fill my water bottle, set the timer and get words on the screen.
