Word count ramblings

You would think that having a long weekend capped off with a snow day and being trapped indoors with no power and nothing better to do than write would culminate in a buttload of words written. In my case, at least, you would be wrong.

I actually managed about 2,500 words over the weekend, which was more than I thought I did; but I wasted a lot of prime writing time shivering under about 30 pounds of blankets, listening to the sky fall and praying that it didn't fall on my house. Which, as it turns out, is not all that conducive to motivating the muse to move. Or the typing fingers, for that matter.

I need to step it up if I'm going to meet my NaNoFiMo goal. As of today, I'm about 6,000 words behind. But I've got a couple of important scenes under my belt, scenes I've been thinking about and envisioning for a few years now. They didn't turn out exactly as originally imagined (when do they ever?), but still, it feels pretty great to have 'em done.
