Every time I go to write a blog post, I end up forgetting about it and returning to my novel. So, I guess this month is going to see very few real posts.

Sorry, guys. Please don’t leave?

Instead of actually writing something, I’m gonna give you guys a chance to ask me ANYTHING. I’ll probably answer pretty much anything, unless it’s really raunchy or creepy. So, ask away!

Didn’t post this last night because I totally forgot to. Whoops.

Current Word Count: 35,058
Words to Go: 14,942
Cups of Coffee: 0
Hours Spent Writing Today: Hours. Don’t remember how many.
Number of Breaks Taken: Oh hi, Twitter!
Number of Characters Killed: 0
Number of Times Writers’ Block Occurred: I got really tired of what I was writing and jumped ahead to a part I’ve been DYING to write, which made it all that more easier to rack up the words. I’ll tie it all in together later.
Number of Times I Almost Gave Up: Nope.
Number of Chapters: 13 in main doc + 2 in Kirk Chronicles (section of story I jumped ahead to) = 15
Number of Pages: 104 in main doc + 16 in Kirk Chronicles = 120
Favorite Character of the Day: Ant, Gigi’s best friend. He’s a HUGE football player who is funny and doesn’t mind buying his friend’s pregnancy tests. Well, he almost doesn’t mind. He’s a good sport about it.

I just checked Twitter and found out that Jess is about 1,000 words ahead of me at 36,221. I imagine that she’s writing now and surging even more ahead of em… I MUST CATCH UP!!
