My writing progress this past week has been better than usual, and this is the reason:
At the last Villa Diodati workshop in France, VD13 (for which I still have to write a report, mea culpa), Sylvia was crocheting these lovely little monsters, and she promised to make one for me and Nancy if we finished our WIPs by the end of January.
Well, when I got back from France, I got a bit distracted by Life complications that cropped up while I was gone. My writing suffered for a while as a result. But things are looking better now, and I really still want my Cthulhu. 🙂
When Life had calmed down a bit and I took a closer look at Facets of Glass, I realized I still had to get in about 1,000 words a day for the rest of the month if I wanted to earn my own personal monster.
This week I manged 6,800. 🙂
Wishing everyone a great week!

I have seen some cute Cthulhus in my time, but that has to be up there with the cutest.
And if I can only get my act together, I will have one! *g*
all the best for gaining your monster:) sure you will – all the best for this week:)
Cyoot!!! 😀
6,800 words for the week is great. Congrats, Ruth! And I love the monster. 🙂
Thanks, Denise! I’ve slowed down a bit this week, but I think I’ll still finish the novella by the end of the month. 🙂
*pouts* I write lots and lots of words. No one’s offered to make me any cute blue monsters, though!
Bummer.
Now, write like the wind, so I can enjoy yours vicariously, OK? =D
That’s the advantage of face to face workshops — monsters! 🙂
