Still Goin'

Last night was easier than the night before. I put on my red fleece lucky writing pants that I just bought from Target and my red fleece top and made some peppermint tea, and turned out six pages in an hour and a half.

Now whether those six pages are good for anything other than lining the kitty box or making paper airplanes with I don't know, but I gotta tell ya, I'm having a blast. I'm not self-editing and my characters are talking to me. Sometimes its silly stuff but I don't care.

I think I'm lucky in that I've written the main characters before, and their voices are very familiar to me. Writing Leah feels very natural because I've listened to her voice for two previous books. I guess a four year break has made her antsy and she won't shut up.

I guess I need to remember to put in a little back story because there's a lot of stuff I know about her that I take for granted from the previous two books that a reader who hasn't read Repo Chick Blues or Finding Chloe wouldn't know.

So I'm on page 27. Fingers crossed that it keeps going relatively smoothly for me.
