And now it is August. Which means I have one month left before my day job kicks me in the pants and tells me to get going. This is the lull at the university where we have no allocated budget yet, no labs running, but I have to do some inventory, requisitions and preparations for the incoming storm.
Something that came out of this crazy July experiment of #50in5 was that I’ve convinced at least three people to do this insanity with me and they want to do it during other months. We had already planned November (because of NaNoWriMo) but now we will add January and March along for the ride. With new postcards specifically for those challenges.
(At least officially.)
As promised, here is the completed #50in5 card (sans stickers at the moment):
The front
The Back
But enough of that. Let’s talk about…
July Wrap Up
Words Written: 143,524 Days Written: 31/31 Drafts Finished: 2 – Shift: 79,019 –Shard of Sea: 113,183 Short Stories Written: 1 -“Wedding Gifts” – 1,524 Challenges Complete: 2 -#50in5 -Camp NaNoWriMo (July)
Highest Word Count Day: 7/21 (13,202) Lowest Word Count Day: 7/31 (855)
Favorite Accomplishment: Finishing the thriller, Shift. That trilogy is complete. It also spawned a potential duology surrounding two of the other agents so it looks like I’m not done with the DPMS yet.
Least Favorite Moment: The blackout ruining my original plans to finish Shard of Sea. I still did it, by the grace of my laptop battery, but it really threw me off kilter.
