Ten Days a Novel: Day VI
Today was tough. I know three or four steps ahead now and for me, that makes it tougher to write. I like when it's spilling and I'm completely surprised, which is how it gets working eventually when I know what's coming, but it's harder to get moving.
Was wiped all day. Even after sleeping in. Didn't work out. Hardly met the minimum, thankfully that bad movie gave me a visual that spurred my brain.
Hopefully I can finish early, no doubt now, I'm going to finish this in time (unless some tragedy strikes).
