On Writing: Tantalizingly Close

I know I haven’t posted any updates lately about my progress with NANTUCKET. I’ve had that handful of final scenes to write, and procrastinating like crazy about it. Altogether, since I last posted about my writing, I’d only sat down to the computer maybe about three times, each time writing between 1500 to 2000 words. And still not getting anywhere near the end.

But today, I thought to myself: I want to finish this. And suddenly the procrastination fell away, and I sat and I wrote, and I wrote, and I wrote.

I wrote 7,361 words today, bringing NANTUCKET to a total of 108,982 words. And I’m still not finished yet.

But I’m tantalizingly close.

So watch this space tomorrow. I think that “I Finished!” post, with fireworks and everything, is on its way. Just not today.
