Disenfranchisement and a strong desire for thermal underwear are real boosts for compliance with the challenge rules.<br /><br />Comforted myself -- and my page count -- by sending e-mail inquiries to my characters, along with instructions to "reply all".

I can't get motivated without the kick-in-pants start I get from the #1k1hr challenge on Twitter. I do two or three of those each morning and average around 2500 words total. Two pages? Easy peasy. <br /><br />If you haven't heard of #1k1hr, the goal is to write 1000 words in 1 hour.<br /><br />Oh, lordy. My spam word? endwally. It's late. I'm tired. And I just splorted Diet Coke out of my nose.<br /><br />I'm also doing NaNo because I'm a glutton like that.
