April and May Word Counts
This is just here for the record; not much to show for the past couple months.
April:
Haley novel = 38 (I managed to work in a line I really liked and hadn't previously been able to find a place for.)
original short stories = 15
Total new words in April = 53
Queries sent = 1
Looking back at goals, I did get my taxes done. And the flu is gone, though there is a trace of a lingering cough that I'll be very glad to see the back of.
May:
Falling From Ground = 40
original short stories = 184 (incl. more clown history!)
Total new words in May = 224
There were also a couple quick edits on ...And The Kitchen Sink that didn't actually change the word count.
Short stories submitted = 2
What can I say? I've rather had my mind on other matters lately.
I'm not setting targets for June, either; still getting my feet under me from real-life matters. I've an unaccustomed amount of critiquing to do; got the stuff for the library group done just in time, and now there's the 4th Street workshop coming up. I have been fiddling with some living-room fanfic lately, which is a nice low-demand way to ease back into writing. And I poked at Green Ring a little the other night.
Breathe in. Breathe out. Repeat as necessary.
