I have typed out 7,859 words this week in the JeRoWriMo writing challenge. There are writers who have put down far more words, but for me this is good. I will have to do some major editing later, but the point of the writing challenge is to write and forget about editing since the inner editor stifles creativity. The inner editor can also prevent forward progress, which is what usually happens to me. When I'm writing, I often go backwards and edit. Then I move forward, then I go backward and edit again, which means it takes far too long for me to write a book.:^(
This story has taken a few interesting turns.
Joshua Huddy made a cameo appearance in the story this week. The heroine's pig has turned into a wonderful secondary character. I originally planned for the heroine's sister to have her own book, making this the beginning of a two book series. However, now I am considering giving the twins their own books, too.
But I'll think about that later. Right now got type out some more words!

Thank you for turning off the word verification! It was a major hassle. Kinda like Thanksgiving nanoremo. But worse
Mark Twain said he was a poor writer, but an excellent re-writer, so I guess having a lot of editing to do is ok.
