It has been much longer than I intended to go between updates. I was very sick last week. Finally on the 17th dragged myself to the doctor and I have/had Strep throat which caused bronchitis, laryngitis, and pharyngitis. Instead of updating here, I spent my non-napping times writing in my story just trying to stay on pace.
I started feeling better yesterday, woohoo for antibiotics! The bacteria is dying off in my respiratory system and I feel more like a human! Yesterday I managed a monster day of writing, almost 3000 words bringing the total, for the first time this year, above pace by an entire day! I ended last night at 33333, which is today’s word count to be right on pace.
Today I did it again, 3k word day and I sit comfortably at 36342 words total. The story has flared to life and been hijacked by one of the characters. I created him as a filler character and now he has turned into the main love interest. As I wanted to have a non-happy ending, this has annoyed me. I love him.. he became such a wonderful character and now I know I need to hurt him. I do not want to! I want to let them live happily ever after. But that is not the direction the story is going to go, he will have to be hurt. The extent to which remains to be seen.
