I reached 70,000 words today. It feels like a milestone.
I thought starting out that this new novel wouldn't be as long as the others (110,000 words). I had hoped I learned that sometimes, less is often more, from the wonderfully talented Arlene Hunt. But the darn things keeps on growing extra limbs.
Maybe when I reach the end, I'll be glad of my ignorance of it's final word count. Always best not to panic - Keep writing calmly and effectively. That will have to do me for now!!
