TriMo Word Count-3

October 15, 2005

Here is my TriMo update:
14th-19,752 (4,712-)
15th-19,752 (5,268-)
16th-19,752 (5,824-)
17th-20,348 (5,784-)
18th-21,586 (5,102-)

Today I actually wrote my first flash challenge for “The NoteBored.” This week’s trigger was a repeat from a few weeks ago. The trigger was “Don’t Quite” or “Never Give Up.” The only story I could think of was a scene from my novel. I didn’t want to write that scene yet, so I tried to come up with another, but nothing else would enter my brain. So, I went and did it. I wrote my flash entry about an upcoming scene in my novel. I wrote that scene in 976 words, so technically I have 22,562 words done and I’m 4,126 words behind. But I won’t count those words until they are actually placed with in my story; mainly because I might have to add or subtract from that number to fit the scene into my novel.
