Day 2: 875 words
Day 3: 524 words
I usually do my writing in the mornings, but I had the WORST sleep last night, so I let myself sleep in a bit today. I also didn't get home until 5, so writing was just not going to really happen. I have a long writing day planned tomorrow, though

i think in this first draft my novel will be about 60k words, which means in my 2nd draft i will be adding about 20k but it’s ok because i keep a running list of scenes i have to add !!

Day 21: exactly 200 words.
The last few days have not been very productive writing ones for me, but i’ve been doing other things (reading, internship work, a PR certificate, etc.) so i’m not being too hard on myself about it!
hopefully after tomorrow i’ll get back on it!
