This is a story that I've been wanting to write for a few years now. With the new year here, I'm thinking now's a good time to put in a resolution to work on it every day, in order to bring it to light. It is basically an adventure story with Rumble as the protagonist.

I am going to attempt to write 1,000 words a day, beginning 1 January 2015 Pacific Standard Time.

January 1 2015

I wrote 1,047 words for the story, and actually got past a part that had been keeping me from writing for a while now. I think I'm doing well so far.

January 2 2015

I got 1,113 words done for the day, and finished an important section of chapter 1. I also found that I need to either rearrange scenes or add significant information to it, like path-altering figures.

Total words in document: 2,362.

I got 1,127 words written today, and finished what I believe to be most of chapter 1. I think I will finish it tomorrow, and then have to go through editing it and drawing a coverart for it. I'm okay with that, though.

I wrote 1,010 words today, pasted some words from another document of mine, and am now finished with the most recent rough draft I have of Chapter 1. I'm going to massively edit it tomorrow, and begin on Chapter 2 tomorrow.

I wrote 1,284 words tonight. I wrote the first scene of Chapter 2, which went by much smoother than any other scene so far. After this, I don't know what to write next. I'll be editing Chapter 1 tomorrow.

1,271 words this day, and I completed another scene for the second chapter. I will most likely complete the second chapter by the eighth. And I'm happy to say that I've met my goal every day for the first week of January. I'm going to be upping my ante for the second week: 1,250 words a day.

1,379 words for the night, 129 words above my set goal. I am on the very last section that I can think of for Chapter 2. 1/4 of Chapter 1 has also been edited, and will undergo one final editing readthrough after I'm done with the rest of the chapter. Coverart is coming along... that's all I can say. Onward and upward to publication!

Only 175 words today. Boy, does this feel shitty. I've lost a lot of confidence in that.
