First Draft Diaries: Week One

It's time for a progress check as I write the first draft of my new book! This week, I wrote: TOTAL TIME: 3hr20min TOTAL WORDS: 5764 WORDS/MIN: 28.82 WORDS/HOUR: 1729.2 STIUTK CURRENT WORD COUNT: 5,762 (2 fewer words than what I wrote last week because that's how things shook out when I cleaned up previous days' writing before each new session) In this episode, I break down how writing went for the week as I wrote the start of a new book and discuss things like writing efficiency and the importance of showing up to build trust even when tired and unmotivated. Happy writing! Related Episodes: #225: First Draft Diaries: The Beginning #228: Water and Ice #229: Consistency Doesn't Mean Every Day Let's Connect: Instagram Threads Email
