Kind of like a marker and you feel good on the days you surpass it. <br /><br />LibbyLibby McKinmerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00103167821798683594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7041804343600978883.post-25069551684903068792012-07-25T08:16:47.808-05:002012-07-25T08:16:47.808-05:00I write all day.

So I do various exercise classes, etc., in the mornings. And I make sure that I make time for writing in the afternoon, five days a week-- treating it like a day job. I made a NY resolution in January that I'd write every weekday -- so I'm now more than 50,000 words into the second book in my mystery series.<br />Sandy Gardner<br />sgardner2@hvc.rr.comsandy gardnernoreply@blogger.com
