Writing Goal for the Day?

Kids are sleeping, one is off for a school activity, last one for a while, the nephew is still in bed from working his late shift last night, so I'm taking the time to write out some more of my wicked smut. :D

I've added around 1200 this morning and still feeling the muse. I also have 2 more ideas that popped into the ol' noggin, both are strickly stroke worthy not much plot going on with them, but that's okay, they'll be nice and naughty.

Still contemplating the Survivor Contest next year if they run it.

Morning Red :rose: :kiss:

Set yourself a daily writing goal. It will be more productive in the long run without all the drama over there.

Goal for the day: Get "Mused" over the hump, in more ways than one. :D

Good morning to you. :kiss: :kiss:

Hmm... a daily goal would be nice, and relatively easy to do on most days. I like the "spur of the moment" - "shoot from the hip" writing moments too though. lol
 
Well, PennGirl was sick this morning, so that may throw things off a bit. Still have to finish the red dino, but that shouldn't take long. Eventually I'll get back to writing. Eventually.

Good luck. I have a house full of holiday relatives visiting. I'm probably done writing for the rest of the year.
 
I have so SO many ideas running through my mind, it's almost as if my Muses have been hitting the espresso at Starbucks!!

1. I remembered a story which I started when I was a teenager, and wrote down in a notebook the outline and some notes;

2. One Muse, the sexy one, sprung a dream on me last night involving a redhead and a woman from my past;

3. Heritage Auto Racing Championship - HARC - idea popped into my mind again this morning, and my NASCAR buddies on Twitter want me to get those stories written...they love the car bodies I'll use;

4. The redheaded friend of my wife is baristaing, if that's the proper word, and she keeps distracting me from the stories. And it's not helping that we were just invaded by some insurance company workers who are "healthy," if you know what I mean;

5. My cell is blowing up with texts thanking me for coming into the son's school this morning and making a mixed berry sauce and showing a few moms how to assemble the crepes for a senior Christmas party....
 
Have to stop zoning out looking at a blank screen and actually type something.

Shut down the word processor and open up that folder with all the pretty naked ladies in it. Click on the first one and start the slide show. Sooner or later something will jar the writing nerve enough to put some very hot words on the screen.

Hey, it works for me. :D
 
Full day of travel to Wilmington. Might get half a chapter of a Clint Folsom mystery written in the motel tonight. Tomorrow a Christmas party at the Michener museum (former research staffers) and then on to the Lehigh Valley. I'll wave at PennLady "near Philly" in passing.
 
:rolleyes:

That plot twist is going to leave a bunch of panties and jockstraps laying alone on the floor. :D

Wave from afar, as PennGirl had a stomach virus today. We're crossing all available fingers that no one else gets it, which would put a wrench in holiday travel plans. Have a good trip.
 
I'm over 10,000 today, yay me. I did the twist in the story now I'm working toward some sort of lovey dovey reunion, just happens that it might come during the school Valentine dance, so would that make it a Valentine story? Probably not, I think to be considered worthy of a true Valentine contest entry I need more focus on the holiday, not just the fact there is a dance at the school that day. :rolleyes:

It fits the theme so enter it. What have you got to lose?
 
I would like to get a few hours in, but damn it. I'm an idiot and sit in Starbucks...and there's this redhead barista who, well.....

Redheads are the single most distracting thing in the world. Especially if they have that fair skin and some freckles to go along with it.

My wife is a redhead, maybe that's why I can't get shit done when shes home.

To make things worse, she had her lunch with me. Did squat writing!!
 
Well today I start my vacation. We usually close for a week in July but we had a big order and were asked to work. We have a union so they could not tell us too, and many people refused even though the owner was offering a bonus.

Well now those losers have to work while me and a dozen others are off for the next 11 days. We also got a $500 dollar bonus for working in July and each of received an extra two in our x-mas bonus. Ironically most of the people who turned down working in the summer are the ones constantly crying poor. I will never figure people out. What's the line about god helping those who help themselves?

So for my vacation, no original writing, but editing 14 chapters of my SWB series for the second Broken E-book. Around 200k. should be fun, especially because my writing has improved drastically in the year since I wrote this and my editor pounded some good habits into me so this will be tedious to say the least, with a lot of rewriting to go along with the grammar corrections.

But if you don;t have a good plot bunny in your head walking away from this I will be ashamed of you!

BTW what color were her eyes? Tell me green, and I'll have the plot bunny!

I'm from a Polish union family. Rule of thumb: when management comes and asks to work during break you will be handsomely compensated, with money at that time, at Christmas, and it won't be forgotten. Young people don't get it.

Hey I'm polish too. Insert polock joke here. I was offered management, but didn;t want it, because my job requires a lot of overtime and I am too smart to take salary even if the salary is more than my hourly now, they were not offering near enough to make up for 15 or so hours a week of time and a half.

So I am a "lead person" meaning I'm in charge but still not technically management. What the dopes also did not realize is that with only a skeleton crew working we all wracked up 20 hours of OT which in my case exceeded the bonus.

And as for family, my foster father told me long ago, "It's easier to have it and not need it, then to need it and not have it."

Financially my wife and I do pretty well, but I just can;t say no to extra money. She gets pissed at me, but I can;t help myself. She did however break me of the habit of adding water to the ketchup bottle to make it last. She says that's ghetto and to knock it off.

I had to stop DH from looking at people's junk left at the curb for the trash men to pick up. If you've ever seen George Lopez's standup routine, talking about the floor lamp picked up from somebody's trash, then you've seen DH's family. His mother even had that very floor lamp in their living room. No lamp shade, either. I swear.

Okay, question, my fellow writers. I'm working on a short story, and I really intend to finish this one (are you reading this, GQ?), and I need to know what trumps what: BDSM, Reluctance, or Group Sex. There are elements of each. I'm leaning towards BDSM, because that's what opens the story. The Reluctance scene is not very hardcore. I haven't written the Group Sex yet; should be interesting, I've never written one before.

If the reluctance isn't hard core then go with BDSM.

Today I'm working on my procrastination skills. :rolleyes:
