We’re on day 15 of The WIP Project 2022 now, which means that one sixth is behind us. I know I couldn’t keep up with updating every day or so, so I decided this is a good rhythm.
My goal is to write 30,000 words in 90 day, or 333 words per day.
So far it’s going quite well. I’ve written every single day of those 15 days, and my word count was below 333 on only one of those days. To make up for that (which was absolutely unintentional btw), I accidentally wrote over 1k words on another day.
I came across the WIP Project rather late, so I wasn’t really well prepared when I started writing. At first I tried to just write the scenes I had in mind, but I quickly realised that didn’t work. So I’m now doing a “zero draft” which I’ve never done before, and summarising the scenes without worrying about my writing style is actually a lot of fun. I’m still figuring out what goes where in my plot, but I should be able to start writing the real first draft soon.
There’s still no WIP intro that I could link to now, but I’m working on that as well. Hey, at least I’ve got a nice little banner for the project!
