Day Three: Done. 1,011 words on my novel-in-progress.
If it hadn’t been for this challenge, I wouldn’t have written today. Spent five hours on billable work, plus time checking social media for updates about the protests, and the to-do list is still long—pay bills, feed cats, do submissions for contests and journals with midnight deadlines, put away laundry, take out garbage and recycling for pickup tomorrow morning, fix dinner—and that’s just what’s coming to mind now, at 8:46 p.m.
Nope. No way I’d have written without this challenge, but I’m glad I did because the story is taking an interesting turn. Thanks, #1000wordsofsummer!
You beat me today, Jo, but I’m glad you managed a few words on the novel. I stopped at 700 to beta a friend’s story.

You’re so nice!
Plus, you’re two hours behind me, so you still have nearly 5 hours before the end of the day if you want to knock out another 300 words. And if you don’t, you still wrote 700, and that’s huge! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
