Days 25, 26 and 27

Day 25: 696 words plus a lot in my notebook.

Day 26: 988 words.

Day 27 (today): 1,003 words.

Even after that rousing post on Friday, I still didn't write anything on Monday and didn't reach my goal on Tuesday, though I did do some good planning in my notebook, including coming up with a new ending.

Sometimes it's tough to realize that the best thing you can do is delete words, and that's what I had to do. I'm not even sure how many thousands of words are now on the cutting room floor, but I know my story will be better for it.

Now that I'm not sick anymore I should be back to my regular upload schedule.
