So we’re five days into our sixty-two day journey of DéJàWriMo. How have you been doing?

I’ve been doing… not great, to be honest. For the first two days, I wrote nothing. On the 3rd day (Friday), I wrote a couple hundred words longhand on a break at work. Yesterday (the 4th), I concentrated on some knitting projects I’ve been working on instead.

That brings us to today. I’m pretty darned happy with today. I typed up the stuff I’d written longhand and added roughly 2000 more words.

Here’s a word count progress meter, courtesy of Writertopia. Tell me in the comments how your novel is coming along.

Kiara

Kiara possesses a dry wit, a sharp sarcasm, and a towering intellect. Her secret alter ego has a boring™ day job, but at night she writes and reviews speculative fiction. She carries the keys to dozens of hearts in her pockets and jumps puddles in a single bound. Her superhero power is losing her socks before they've even made it into the dryer. She also likes to tell stories, so parts of this bio may be exaggerated. Waiting for Fairies is not responsible for any credulity that may be lost in the reading of this bio.

  1. I have…around 2000 words. They're all written for a short story I've had banging around my head for a while now, so we shall see where it goes. No work on the novel I started with NaNoWriMo, yet. Or the one I started in the spring. :) But hey! Writing! Even a little is good, right?

  2. I don't feel so bad then!

    I'm (hoping) intending to do a status post every 5 days to a week, so we'll see how it goes!

  3. Yeah, don't feel bad! I've written ~175 words. Every time I sit down at my computer in the evening, I almost immediately fall asleep. Hang in there!
