Despite my best intentions to post everyday I just can’t seem to do it. Mostly because I don’t get to work until late in the day so that by the time I have anything to post about I’m too tired to string words together. I’ve been distracted by an engadging book, and an even more engaging video game. I could level all sorts of complaints at Eternal Sonata for its writing, but the game is nothing short of addictive. And fun, which is really all that matters.
I’ve taken up walking Chai every day again. Two miles up to the main road and back. Yesterday on the walk we saw two ptarmigan on the side of the road, both still in their summer brown-grey. Earlier this year, it May I think it was, I saw one in winter white. I’ve lived in my neighborhood for over ten years now and this is the first year I’ve seen ptarmigan around.
My novel is progressing well. I had to go back and add in a few scenes because I realized that my plot was moving too fast. Personally I’m disappointed in my wordcount, even if I’m on track to hit 50,000 before the end of the month. I haven’t been making the 2,000 a day minimum goal that I’ve set for myself, and I’m not entirely sure what happens next. Que sera, sera.
