Had a hard time sticking to everything - a few football games drew my attention, not to mention had to pop into work to get caught up. Soul mate was on the road home and the Alaska kid wondered where the hell his mom was (answer - remodelling her niece's farmhouse out in the wilds, and I do mean wilds, of central California - far from a cell tower, if you can imagine that). Also, middlest daughter's birthday - got a chance to talk to her on the cell, plus texts with the oldest son.
Anyway, finished 3,162 words today for a total of 27,713. Feeling better at the moment. The patch I just worked through was hard to write - I've made a few decisions about where I'm going (mods to the plot) and I think we're on a gentler course for a bit. I'm on Chapter 6, but it really is the 11th chapter, because I have a 1A, 1B, etc.
It was a little funny - today mostly, but also last night (I spent a while at my club enjoying a party before coming home to write). Talk about watching your characters do something you didn't expect. Multiple endings to the story - bear in mind we're only a fifth of the way in - occurred to me and it was was eye-opening. I could see a couple of other books based on a similar premise. That was a lovely little burst of creativity I wasn't expecting. Always welcome. Thank you, Muse.
Anyway. luck to you all. Keep going, you can make it. I know you can, I have faith in you.
