Wrote 175 words of sample dialogue for my next screenplay, based on riffing I did with a friend in the car
Last night I finished the rough outline for the movie. Tonight I did some research
https://abs.twimg.com/emoji/v2/... draggable="false" alt="đ" title="Smirking face" aria-label="Emoji: Smirking face"> and I& #39;ll be finalizing my outline tomorrow
Definitely procrastinated on finalizing this outline. Rewrote P1, stopped midway thru P2A
Meant to add this on Monday: got 67% draft outlined, realized I have more scenes than pages, whoops
2/3rds done finalizing my movie outline. Next up will be my Big 2018 Q1 Project outline
Finished my movie outline on the 29th of December, just for the record here.

Last night: 500ish handwritten words
Last night: ~250 handwritten words

Got sick, so I haven& #39;t written in a while but! Tonight finished half the outline for the big project I& #39;m working on from Valentine& #39;s til Memorial Day.
1035 words, not counting the title and headings and stuff. Almost all of the words are going to be trashed or moved to later in the chapter, I can already tell, but it& #39;s good to have a start.
Tonight I wrote roughly 3000 words in about 100 minutes (not including the breaks)
About 1700 words tonight
2600ish words, including some double-writing (i rewrote a scene in-between what was already written, it& #39;s kind of hard to explain) and I got into chapter three. Am short 900 words, and in 1000 words my two mains will finally meet each other. Dunno when I& #39;ll have time to write
Rewrote a personal document rather than anything of actual value. Also, wrote 300 words on Wednesday, but for a freelance article not my main project. Been a rough week, y& #39;all.
Two nights ago: rewrote a personal document 3 times, ~700 words.
Tonight: 450 words in this project. I& #39;m 9500 words behind my expected pace :///

2588 tonight. I& #39;m still 10000 behind, give or take. I could probably power through and write another 1500 words, but I& #39;m pretty tired.
1873 tonight, putting me over 15k and setting me at 8k behind for the weekend, and 13k behind overall.
3340, putting me a little under 5000 short for my weekend goal, and 14,500 short for the entire project.
Exactly 1000 tonight, but I need the early bedtime
3000 words exactly, I& #39;m 4 chapters and 12k behind my plan. gonna try and knock out a huge chunk of this over the weekend, try to catch up and not let myself indulge in descriptions of clothes or houses.
Roughly 4000 words, I am *almost* done with one chapter, I have 3 more to write this weekend (I won& #39;t get to them) and I& #39;m behind on the outline. This whole project is fucked.
3400 words putting me at what *should* be 25% through the project, plotwise! I broke 30K tonight. I& #39;m 5k and will be 3 chapters behind (as of tomorrow evening) but I actually feel...okay about this project again!
150 words, and a glass of wine.
4850 tonight, finished a chapter and ALMOST done with another
1550 words, currently ~3500 behind.
